Thanx for the explanation, SSS!

 

I feared that it has to do with M$ and whatnot. I am in poor health at the moment and had no energy to investigate, sorry...

 

So, AAC is not to be touched in Mipsel.

 

[samsamsam]

No problem.

 

AAC works OK on MIPSEL, so you right there are no reason to use software decoding for AAC on MIPSEL platforms.

Also not all SH4 STB has problem with ACC (bug in firmware) I know that GM990 and its clonse have this bug, but for example Openbox S6 seems works OK. 

[samsamsam]

Simple test:

STB: GM XPEED LX1 (CPU BCM7358)

Protocol: http

Container: FLV

Audio codec: AAC

Video codec: H264 :1920x1080

Watching a movie on MovieHD, I think... Working great! ExtPlayer3 with 10MB buffering!

[samsamsam]

Now is time to add support for others codecs

[gorski]

Excellent news! Thanx!

[hyperonex]

What error?

Please try to play this stream from console line:

exteplayer3 http://....

Sorry samsamsam. Everything is ok the problem was the os firewall.

Thanks again for a such great work

[samsamsam]

In version "90.02.01.00":

 

- videomega better detection not working links

- fix link extraction from http://sportdeutschland.tv/,

- fix logo serialenet

- fix link extraction from http://spryciarze.pl/

- fix host http://www.gametrailers.com/

 

Regards,

SSS

[samsamsam]

In version "90.04.00.00":

- new version of the exteplayer3 (v13) has been deployed for MIPSEL platforms

    * added support for XVID

    * added support for DIVIX

    * added support for PCM

    * added support for software decoding not many kind of audio codecs

 

Most of the AVI, XVID, DIVIX, MKV should works please tests and lets me know.

 

Please, agree when IPTVPlayer will ask to install new version of the exteplayer3 after update.

Please, remember that the IPTVPlayer will install exteplayer3 only if it detect ffmpeg binary in supported version.

 

To check if you have installed ffmpeg please execute folowing command on your STB:

ffmpeg --version

SSS

Whhhoopppsssyyyy... Nothing plays now, regardless of settings, playback via home network...

 

XP1K + PBNIGMA 5.1 + latest IPTV Player, gstplayer or extplayer3, with or without buffering... or automatic...

 

Must investigate why...

Edited by gorski, 29 November 2015 - 11:34.

[samsamsam]

It is very strange because code of handling other codecs has not been changed.

Also if this not works with gstreamer I must be something wrong.

 

Maybe try power on/power off (unplug power cable and plug again)

 

You can also try. to play file directly from cmd line.

For example:

exteplayer3 http://....

 

Maybe there will be some error which give the point what is wrong.

[gorski]

OK, unplugged, waited a bit, plugged back in and tried...

 

As you know, I am an IT lay person, so I try and - through errors - I learn... I tried different things, since I am not sure of the exact syntax:

 

root@sf8:~# exteplayer3 http://\\SYN\video\CONCERTS etc\G3\G3 - Live In Denver - Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen.avi^C

file: [http://\SYNvideoCONCERTS]
{"PLAYBACK_OPEN":{"OutputName":"Output", "file":"http://\SYNvideoCONCERTS", "sts":-1}}

{"EPLAYER3_EXTENDED":{"version":13}}
file: [file://http:\SYNvideoCONCERTS]
{"PLAYBACK_OPEN":{"OutputName":"Output", "file":"file://http:\SYNvideoCONCERTS", "sts":-1}}

 

Not happening...

 

FilmOn > working (had to wait quite a bit on WLAN to do the buffering first > to 10MB)...

 

Media > trying to playback the above mentioned files like > G3 Live In Concert(Joe Satriani, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai)Divx.avi (player on Automatic or Extplayer3 without buffering) > no video!

 

I had video and audio only with gstplayer (without buffering)!

 

DVD (VOB files) wouldn't work!

 

Heavy bit-rate mkv files with DTS did not work but I put that down to WLAN stick issues. I had both video and audio but seriously choppy and not usable. But, as I said, WLAN issues, not IPTV Player issues!

 

FLV file (Jaco Pastorius: "Modern electric bass") was fine! But for all of few seconds ONLY! After that: "Could not read from source. Code 9"

 

A number of formats were not even seen (No item to display).

 

I have to wait for the family to go to sleep, then pull the LAN cable and see... "General code 1" was also seen and I think the bandwidth might have been an issue, as well...

 

Will test later...

[samsamsam]

You shoud putt url inside " ".

 

Here are files on which I tested:

 

http://trailers.divx...X1080p_ASP.divx

http://download.wave...P/http-wma.html

http://thud.us/video...c/xvid-samples/

http://www.divx.com/.../profiles/video

http://www.music.hel...im/index-e.html

 

 

The test was performed on:

- XPEED LX1

- Miraclebox Micro premium

Edited by samsamsam, 29 November 2015 - 18:21.

[samsamsam]

And also if you have your files on smb share you should not add http:// to the url.

[gorski]

No, it's Synology Linux (NFS)... So, yes, proper, fuller syntax examples are always helpful...

[MastaG]

samsamsam maybe it's a good idea to move your project to github instead?

fatal: unable to access 'https://gitlab.com:4...yer-for-e2.git/': The requested URL returned error: 503

 

gitlab doesn't seemt to have a good uptime...

[samsamsam]

@MastaG

It is not so easy, because I have some infrastructure based on gitlab.

 

@gorski

 

Did you check the samples which I provided to you on your STB?

If they works for you?

 

Regards,

SSS

[gorski]

Sorry, just sat down to check a few things... Might not be possible tonight... We'll see...

[samsamsam]

OK. I just know if this is problem with specific STB or with specific content. 

If the test contents will work also on your STB then I will ask you to send mi example of content which makes problems for you (I will be able to check on my STB).

 

But, if the test contents will not work for you than this is bad because they work on my STB, so I will not be able to fix them without STB were they are not work.

 

 

P.S

In a moment I will add DTS codec support for exteplayer3, so this also should fix audio in some MKV.

 

Regards,

SSS
