OK folks, I had some success tonight, but am not quite there. In all cases,
I shared server /mediamvp/ via SMB/CIFS mount. Note that I also had to add
world R/W permissions on /dev/video1, otherwise VLC puked errors in
/var/log/vlc.
Long story short, this DOES NOT work. No VLM connection, no VLC activity, no
media. It's clear I can't span device streams across networks with sharing
alone:
[server side]
/mediamvp/pvr500.MPG -> /dev/video1
[MVP side]
/mediamvp/pvr500.MPG
This WORKS, sort of. VLM control connection made, VLC remapping, and some
media:
[server side]
/mediamvp/pvr500.AVI -> /dev/video1
[MVP side]
/mediamvp/pvr500.AVI
I got plenty of lovely stereo sound out of my MVP, but a blank screen.
Checking /var/log/vlc, I ran smack dab into the 29.97fps FFMPEG error.
Has anyone made a dongle available with the 25.00fps hack?
Is it possible to build MVPMC with the normal "build-essential" packages? Or
do I need a cross-compilation environment?
What about building VLC with a different libavcodec? I successfully built
VLC although mine could not access the network correctly, probably a
./configure problem.
Thanks for all the additional suggestions; I archived Martin's VLM script
examples for more experiments. I guess they'll have to wait until after I've
dealt with this hurdle.
