In Topic: [Vu Duo2] Adjusting OSD size for non-overscan use or suggestions on skin to use

Thanks for the tip, its much better than the default skin!

 

Unfortunately it still leaves quite a lot of space at the top of the screen and I dont think the preview screen is any bigger.


In Topic: Transcoding problem

@kers

in OWIF-settings, see if the extended information is enbaled. I don't recall the correct name in this moment. If it is enabled, then disable it and try again with VLC
 
@chelsea
perhaps you are using a very low bitrate? There is a config-file for the streamproxy. Use FTP and increase the bit-rate value. 

Thanks! Solved!

 

It is the "Add service name to stream information" option, which results in the below line in the playlist file. This confuses vlc for some reason.

#EXTVLCOPT:program=33

 

 

By the way, could someone educate me why the default transcoding uses baseline profile and level 3.1? Wouldn't high profile and 4.0 result in better picture quality with the same bitrate?

 

Also, is it possible to set the framerate in /etc/enigma2/streamproxy.conf?

For completeness sake, here is the playlist file contents:

$ more stream.m3u 
#EXTM3U 
#EXTVLCOPT--http-reconnect=true 
#EXTVLCOPT:program=6301

It seems that the stream actually does come, but is somehow not understood by linux VLC 2.1.4.
When I opened it with BS Player on my android mobile it worked, but VLC does now decode it even though its getting the data and recognizes the codec.
If I download the playlist file and open it from the commandline with vlc, I get the error "MPEG-4 descriptor not found". Maybe thats why its not displaying correctly.

 

$ vlc stream.m3u 
VLC media player 2.1.4 Rincewind (revision 2.1.4-0-g2a072be)
[0xff5058] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.
[0x1009808] main playlist: stopping playback
[0x7fbd70c055d8] ts demux error: MPEG-4 descriptor not found

 

 

 

EDIT: Ok, the problem is with the playlist file, if I take the URL and give it directly to VLC, it works ok.

 

I seem to remember that there was a similar issue before, where the .m3u file was not liked by VLC. Is that correct?
