It would be handy to know why our streamproxy doesn't work, but the old transsteamproxy does. Any idea where the source of that binary is?

I adapted this plugin for openPli.

It seems this source

https://github.com/o...nstreamproxy.bb

or

https://github.com/o...nstreamproxy.bb

 

I tested it on lunix4k/solo4k/gbue4k

Ok, so then Erk has to do a find-the-10-differences...

 

It is better to fix it, then to work around it.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.

There are two problems:

 

1) neither VU+, DAGS or Broadcom supply us with the proper way to interface with the transcoding device. We had to reverse engineer all of it. Some parts of the interface are non-unix-standard, so that doesn't help either. I've managed to get it working on VU+, but that, indeed, doesn't guarantee it will work on another manufacturer's receivers.

2) the VU+ transstreamproxy is written in a horribly inefficient way, it will burn many CPU cycles needlessly. But apparently the efficient interface, using select() and poll() instead of threads, isn't implemented completely/properly.

 

So. As soon as anyone can tell me what needs to be changed, I'd be happy to apply it (either 1:1 or using an alternative approach that will accomplish the same).

I don't read PM -> if you have something to ask or to report, do it in the forum so others can benefit. I don't take freelance jobs.
Ik lees geen PM -> als je iets te vragen of te melden hebt, doe het op het forum, zodat anderen er ook wat aan hebben.
