The station is definitely still broadcasting. And announces itself as Radio Cairo 95.4 FM. The website link seems to be oriented to describing what is heard to terrestrial radio, [FM, AM, SW]. Since I don't reside in Egypt, I cannot verify that they do or don't broadcast on that frequency, though I'd be surprised if they don't.

I thought you had developed the BBC iPlayer plugin for LMS, and I have not updated it since the time I first used it. So I thought all the code for transcoding was inside the plugin, and that it didn't call up on the BBC's digital infrastructure. bpa wrote: > Why bother with a dead and insecure protocol when there is MP3 and m3u8. That's a very good question. ERTU added M3U8 streams last October, but they did not shut off the rtmp streams. Both streams are frequently down, ie. offline, but the M3U8 streams are down more frequently, so good to get the rtmp as backup. bpa wrote: > egradio.eg does not resolve for me i.e. I cannot access the domain as if > it doesn't exist.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Playing rtmp streams on Squeezebox Radio using BBC iPlayer for transcoding
Hi all, especially bpa Three, or so years ago, bpa helped me get the rtmp steam of the"European Service" of Egypt's state radio to play on my Squeezebox by encoding the parameters of the options in the URL to Base64 so as to be read by the BBC iPlayer. Last summer the URLs of that radio service changed. Here is the revised URL, which I verified to play using both rtmpdump and ffplay. Code: rtmp://livestreaming5.onlinehorizons.net/ElBernamegElOrobi -a ElBernamegElOrobi -f WIN 32,0,0,270 -w http://www.egradio.eg/our_extentions/egplayer/swf/flowplayer-3.2.18.swf -p http://egradio.eg/our_extentions/egplayer/ -v-y livestream Encoded to Base 64 for BBC iPlayer, it looks like this: Code: rtmp://livestreaming5.onlinehorizons.net?streamname=bGl2ZXN0cmVhbQ==&app=RWxCZXJuYW1lZ0VsT3JvYmk=&live=MQ==&swfurl=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5lZ3JhZGlvLmVnL291cl9leHRlbnRpb25zL2VncGxheWVyL3N3Zi9mbG93cGxheWVyLTMuMi4xOC5zd2Y=&tcurl=cnRtcDovL2xpdmVzdHJlYW1pbmc1Lm9ubGluZWhvcml6b25zLm5ldC9FbEJlcm5hbWVnRWxPcm9iaQ==&pageurl=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5lZ3JhZGlvLmVnL291cl9leHRlbnRpb25zL2VncGxheWVyLw==&.mp3 I did some tests using rtmpdump that confirmed to me that only the -a [app] and -y [playpath] options are required. Code: rtmp://livestreaming5.onlinehorizons.net -a ElBernamegElOrobi -y livestream which when encoded to Base64 look like this: Code: rtmp://livestreaming5.onlinehorizons.net?streamname=bGl2ZXN0cmVhbQ==&app=RWxCZXJuYW1lZ0VsT3JvYmk=&.mp3 I also verified that including the two option parameters as part of the URL works. In that instance, there is no need to encode. Code: rtmp://livestreaming5.onlinehorizons.net/ElBernamegElOrobi/livestream?.mp3 Yet, none of these "play" to the SqueezeBox Radio, ie. no audio I initially, focussed on a faulty encoding, (e.g. wrong syntax) being the source of the problem, and that could still be. However, I noticed on the LMS UI that the URL shows as playing. See for example in the screen grab below how the time played iis displayed as 1:03. What then could be the reason for no audio? I do get excellent audio for regular mp3 and M3U8 streams. Are there settings for the BBC iPlayer plugin that I may have messed up ?

Actually, nothing new. I found this strange workaround requiring the syncing of two radio players a year or so ago after you first solved my rtmp problem, then got busy with other stuff and did not listen to that station for a while, and forgot about the workaround. In October of this year, I received a Security advisory from QNAP that they "identified an attack that possibly exploits known vulnerabilities in earlier QTS versions", and recommending that users install Malware Remover 3.3.0 app on their NAS. I installed it and ran it, and it removed a file, but I couldn't tell what. I falsely assumed that it was related to your previous mod to the BBCiPlayer. So later when I tried again playing that Radio Cairo rtmp stream and it failed I made the wrong connection, and asked your help again. In effect nothing had changed; the remaining problem was the same, namely the weird need to sync both radio players for either one to play. bpa wrote: > The rtmp:// URL you use for LMS seems to have many additional spaces - > for example at the streamname param between the "Z" and "X" > "streamname=bGl2Z XN0cmVhbQ" > > Please double check that these spaces are not in your LMS favorite. Indeed there were spaces. I removed them and that made no difference. For the record, while I refer here to a single ERTU radio station, I had in fact created favorites in my LMS to several of the other ERTU stations (in Arabic) that all behave in the same manner. bpa wrote: > So I think the problem is in the network either your end or the station > end - "connection reset by local host" usually means data lost on > network conjnection which is not good on a TCP/IP connection.

[SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer - RTMP for non-BBC streams
Hello again bpa, BACKGROUND I posted earlier in the old thread that the fix you offered a year or so ago, to stream [Egyptian Radio & Television Union] ERTU audio to the Squeezebox Radio didn't work anymore. I was wrong, but a strange issue persists. Let me explain. The stream in question is the Local European service of Radio Cairo (and similar streams from ERTU: egradio.eg). The URL is: Code: rtmp://liveRadio.onlinehorizons.net/ElBernamegElOrobi -W http://lr.onlinehorizons.net/player.swf -p http://lr.onlinehorizons.net/ElBernamegElOrobi.html -v -y livestream -B 10 The URL processed by the BBC iPlayer plugin and entered as a favorite in LMS is Code: rtmp://liveRadio.onlinehorizons.net:1935?streamname=bGl2Z XN0cmVhbQ==&app=RWxCZXJuYW1lZ0VsT3JvYmk=&live=MQ== &swfurl=aHR0cDovL2xyLm9ubGluZWhvcml6b25zLm5ldC9wbG F5ZXIuc3dm&tcurl=cnRtcDovL2xpdmVSYWRpby5vbmxpbmVob 3Jpem9ucy5uZXQvRWxCZXJuYW1lZ0VsT3JvYmk=&pageurl=aH R0cDovL2xyLm9ubGluZWhvcml6b25zLm5ldC9FbEJlcm5hbWVn RWxPcm9iaS5odG1s&.mp3 As bpa explained, the BBCiPlayer "uses base64 encoding of the various params so it can be internally passed transparently" hence the conversion. The next part of the solution was to replace the rtmp.pm file in the plugin with a modified version bpa provided which supports the pageurl parameter (not used for BBC streams). THE STRANGE PROBLEM The result then as now, is that bpa's solution would not work right away. When I tried to play on an SB radio, I'd get 'Connection reset by remote host' on the Radio display, and on the LMS display, it would stop trying to play after a few seconds. But then and only by chance, I found out that if I synchronized my two SBs to play together, I could start the stream on either of them and the playback would work on both. I could then turn off the player I didn't need to keep on. This I found to be a very strange workaround.

The copied link address is https://17473.live.streamtheworld.com/WGRAM.mp3?SRC=CBS&DIST=CBS&TGT=cbslocalplayer&tdsdk=js-2.9&pname=TDSdk&pversion=2.9&banners=none%2Cnone%2Cnone&sbmid=b99879d7-df7a-4213-d7b5-ab050f315d34 - This will play. But all that is needed is the first part ending before the "?". - This leaves https://17473.live.streamtheworld.com/WGRAM.mp3 This will play in browsers and media players. - For adding this URL as a favorite in Logitech Media Server, remove the 's' from https, and you get http://18073.live.streamtheworld.com/WGRAM.mp3 Try this process with WGR, or other radio website.

My LMS version is 7.7.6 running on a QNAP TS-212P, QTS 4.3.3. I can't tell what Linux distro QTS is based on, but seen reference to Busybox.

Thanks bpa... I don't think you need Arabic for that. But here is a similar site in English: NileTV International https://www.maspero.eg/wps/portal/home/tv/channels/niletv The URL of the actual video stream is https://msertupoc.streaming.mediaservices.windows.net/e30cee7e-dbf9-42b2-9070-031f9f8fa508/b0bc4ae6-2ee9-47cc-a610-d0a35c01220b.ism/manifest(format=mpd-time-csf) How did I get these URLs ? Using Applian's Replay Media Catcher (RMC). ( http://applian.com/replay-media-catcher/ ). Basically, started RMC, placed it on 'Auto', played the stream on maspero.eg, and checked the properties of the recording which include the URL of the stream. What do you mean by "What is the precedent ?" ? Also, the stream I provided looks very similar to the MPEG-DASH example among the Streaming URL Formats presented at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/previous/media-services-deliver-content-overview . I recorded streams with RMC using these URLs, and the audio was fine. I don't care for the visualization associated with the audio which comes as video. In the case of Nile TV International, I recognize that the quality of the video stream is very poor, but it is what it is. You can compare the quality playing the stream on vlc with the same stream on the player in the hosting page so I don't think there is anything incomplete about the URL SO HOW TO SETUP A TRANSCODING APPLICATION. ?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] MPEG-DASH (Audio embedded in Video)
So I have an audio stream embedded in a video stream This is it: https://msertupoc.streaming.mediaservices.windows.net/2a9cfb90-d75c-4ecc-976a-4df4af14f91e/12ab7ccc-da6e-497c-abf6-099dabf44329.ism/manifest(format=mpd-time-csf) It is ERTUs (Egyptian Public Radio) Song Channel. The player where the video stream URL is extracted from is at https://www.maspero.eg/wps/portal/home/radio/stations/radio-songs I have no idea why they embed an audio stream in a useless video stream, but they do. With some digging, I gather that this stream is in MPEG-DASH format... (see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/previous/media-services-deliver-content-overview) Now, I can play that stream directly on any browser or using VLC, and can record it using VLC or Applians Replay Media Catcher. The challenge is to play it (and similar streams) on the Logitech Squeezebox Radio. Adding the URL as a favorite in Logitech Media Server (LMS) fails to play. Questions: Is there a way for LMS and the Squeezebox Radio to play the audio and ignore the video? or Can a playable audio only direct stream URL be identified? All help is appreciated.

The question does not relate to the BBCiPlayer or to the Logitech Squeezebox. It relates to Applian's Replay Media Catcher and how to schedule with it recordings from rtmp streams. So I'm reluctant to post here. If you suggest a more appropriate forum on another site or on this ste, that's where I will post.

BPA,,, You Are a Genius. Thank you SO Much. This problem had been bugging me for a long time and you solved it. Thank you again I will try to do the same with other rtmp streams.

My LMS is running on a NAS (QNAP TS212P) which runs a flavor of Linux. And yes, there was a 16 second delay. Is that "long" ? bpa wrote: > This mod will not work with a player which has the BBCiPlayer App > installed (i.e. players with native "rtmp").
