one thing i forgot, the dsmyt filters does not contain any mpeg4 or mpeg2 decoder, that must be installed separately.
2006/1/16, Andy Foster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:This question rears its ugly head every couple of months but I'm a little baffled by what is needed, minimally, to stream videos from myth.
Some people say they're able to play simply by installing dsmyth, clicking on the myth://hostname:6543/xyz.mpg link in the appropriate browser, and the media player of choice launches and starts streaming.
I don't understand how they do this at all. This is the myth protocol, and thats the mythbackend address, but how does their media player understand the myth:// uri? As I understand it in this case the media player is basically being launched with the uri as an argument. I have tried this with wmp, media player classic and videolan client, none of them comprehend the myth:// uri, and my backend log shows no access attempts.
first, what version of mythtv do you use and what version of the dsmyth filter do you use?
i asume you want to stream mpeg files? if so is it from a dvb card or a pvr card?
if you want to use the dsmyth filters to stream things you must make sure the mysql settings in the config program is setup properly and that it works.
one thing i forgot, the dsmyt filters does not contain any mpeg4 or mpeg2 decoder, that must be installed separately.
