The setting up is now done inside the startup system, you cannot see it, but it really happens.

[kung]

But my problem I still have it

[Erik Slagter]

Did you already do "opkg install vuplus-transcoding" after you did a fresh flash AND did you already reboot after that?

Yes many times, stream is dead

[Erik Slagter]

This, combined with disabling http authentication, has fixed the problems for all other users.

I send you my ip you can check if you want!!

Hi, I have also problem to stream my channels.

 

I have no problem at all for about one week ago. But sense I got problem when software update my Vu+ Duo2, I found that it cause of enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-transcodingsetup.

I run opkg list-upgradable and found that there was at least one replacement for transcodingsetup (vuplus-transcoding)

 

I removed transcodingsetup and now my software update work as it should.

I installed vuplus-transcoding

 

but I can't not stream my channels no longer :-(

 

I can get it to work i I use my computer at home connected to lan and use the standard port. But not (from any device) from 8002.

 

Please help. Or I have to find my old backup made several moth ago.

Streaming and transcoding should be fixed.

 

The only thing that still doesn't work at the moment is transcoding when you have authentication on the webinterface. This is due to the clumsy way VU has implemented it, we need to find a better and more generic solution for it.

[delavega]

yes i confirm only stream auth doesnt work now.

[Chelsea]

It doesn't work for me. I have not authentication on. Transcoding don't work.

[Erik Slagter]

Can you try with i.e. wget and look what comes out (if anything)?

 

Anyway, it's all VU+ it's own stuff...

[Chelsea]

When I try, it's save the stream to disk. I abort after about 14MB (52 sec). Then rename to somethin.mpg and play it with VLC. All I get are an blank screen without any audio.

 

When look at the output from the VLC in the console, this is what I get:

If I do the same thing from port 8001 instead, I got picture and audio. And this are the output from vlc

So the transcoding seems not work as it should.

[Erik Slagter]

The transcoding here is not working correctly on hardware/driver level. There's not much we can do.

[Trial]

Hi,

on Solo2 there seems to be a bug in the driver when 25/50Hz is selected. With 30/60Hz it seems to work better. Last time I tested Duo2 it seemed OK.

 

ciao

[Erik Slagter]

You shouldn't fiddle with the settings AT ALL. Don't touch them! It will crash the transcoding engine. No bug reports if you touched any of the settings!

[Taykun345]

For me transcoding still works fine with yesterdays image. I didnt fiddle with settings

Vu+ is innocent.
Blame the Twisted devs which simply don't ever fix anything.

I worked around this issue in OpenWebif, see Fix login issues with streaming.

The problem is that the previously used function for determining the client IP "getClientIP()" is basically defined as

def getClientIP(self):
return None

so it does nothing at all but instead always returns "None" ...

Obviously

if request.getClientIP() == "127.0.0.1" and not config.OpenWebif.auth_for_streaming.value:

can NOT ever become true while "request.getClientIP()" has a constant value of "None".

[SpaceRat]

PS: Sadly I was a bit too late in order for this fix to make it into todays (2014-03-29) build.

If you update OpenPLi tomorrow (2014-03-30), the fix should be in and you can finally use transcoded streaming without insanely opening the whole webif without login ...

[christophecvr]

Ter info transcoding on vuduo2 only works when:

 

1) if vuplus-transcoding is installed (opk install vuplus-trancoding)

2) There is no webif authetinfication.

3) The transcoding-setup.sh which You find into /etc/init.d map is set to 720p

 

# display size, possible options: 480p/576p/720p, default=480p
SIZE="720p"

after You did that change from 480p which is set as default into 720p reboot you're box or just telnet you box and run sh /etc/init.d/transcoding-setup.sh

This third setting might be different on other vu boxes.

 

Note: I'm using vlc (seems that on mplayer it work's also with 420p). But the problem is not vlc self. An incompatible image size setting is sended with the stream, mplayer somehow recovers this but with a work around. vlc can be maid working with other then 720p when after you started the play and the audio runs with black image You stop and then restart the video stream.
