Hi,
Thanks for the tips. This is what I found (I love nice debug logging :-) )
The logging shows that it will try to play also the stream below the
selected one (causing a black screen or a reboot)
If the stream is the last one in the default.m3u it does work.
(build 8-dec-2006 and build 12-dec-2006 tested)
Explanation of findings:
If I added after the line "http://www.4urocknmetal.com/4UHIFI.m3u"; in
default.m3u
the next lines:
#EXTINF:-1,stream_1
http://<ip1>:5212/
#EXTINF:-1,stream_2
http://<ip2>:8080/
I checked if the lines ended with a normal LF (hex "OA"), they did.
When I select stream_1 then the following happens on the mvpmc:
Setting WSS aspect to: 8
playlist: play item 'stream_1', file 'http://<ip1>:5212/' key 7
Starting to play audio file 'http://<ip1>:5212/'
screensaver disable

Changing to aspect 0, afd 0
Video aspect reported as ZERO - not changing setting

http opened (null)
write threads released
auto detection transport stream returned 1

I've also tried to remove stream_2 and placed stream_1 in between the
existing
stream definitions, the same thing happened. The mvpmc will try to load
stream_1 and
the radio stream below it.

Odd - I just setup a similar test with an xvid file and it worked fine
when I connected to the transcoded stream via the playlist.
One thing I did notice (that wasn't mentioned in your previous post) was
that I had to use --sout-transcode-fps on the VLC command line or VLC
would fail.
Could there be something ununsual about the xvid file? With the settings
you have for VLC, it could be that the mvp doesn't like the resolution
of your xvid file. Try adding --sout-canvas-width 480
--sout-canvas-height 480 --sout-transcode-fps 29.97 to your VLC startup
command line to see if it helps.
If it doesn't, would you mind posting the contents of
/usr/share/mvpmc/connect.log and also the output to stdout when
attempting to connect to your stream? You can view the stdout output by
telneting into your MVP before you start the video, then running:
killall mvpmc && sh /etc/dongle.config &
mvpmc will restart and stdout output will appear in your console.
Regards,
Rob
