SH,

Thanks for moving it over and for the answer. That was exacly what I needed to get up to date.

The & should really be fixed in the pmsencoder scripts. I thought it was.

But then SVT swapped from rtmp to hls a while ago. And hls links are perhaps not quoted.

I'll look at the scripts again.

Sharkhunter, I have added the rtmpdump and curl paths to my UMS.conf. It now "seems more stable" and I have also moved over to a 32-bit ubuntu box since the ffmpeg gave me some errors about missing 32-bits libs on the 64-bit environment.

But still no success in transcoding SVT. I have attached debug package. I also tried moving pmsencoder out of the way but no success. I've tried to render on both my Samsung TV and Android phone.

I tried running the commands for SVT on the command line.

Code: Select all

/home/tubby/bin/ums-2.4.2/ffmpeg -v 0 -y -threads 4 -i "http://svtplay4d-f.akamaihd.net/i/se/open/20130224/1125251-017A/CHARLIE-017A-da4f46eac5486111_,900,348,564,1680,2800,.mp4.csmil/index_1_av.m3u8?null=&id=" -threads 4 -target ntsc-dvd /tmp/universalmediaserver/pmsencoder_transcoder_out_1362081853211_42

Note the quation-marks around the URL. That makes ffmpeg happy on the command line. The " is not present in the debug.log ?

Hello, I've been getting some issues with playing video. I've tried both the onion and youtube. CMD 255 error.

Edit: CNN through Navi X works.

Tubby - try upgrading to 2.5 as I think ffmpeg handling has been updated there (with " hopefully).

Zuxicovp - you have only uploaded the debug.log and not the full ums_dbg.zip pack.See viewtopic.php?f=9&t=556
From the log it seems like there are some installation issues.

Great! I have updated to 2.5.0 but still no success. I have attached a debug package where I am trying to connect to SVTplay rendering on my Android phone. I seems as my current main issue is that transcoding is not working as expected.

The " is not present in the trace/debug log lines but that does not mean that they are not there, right

Hi everyone,

I've been trying to figure this out for the past few hours and I have no idea what to do next. Everything is installed correctly and I can stream media from my computer to my PS3 fine but when it comes to watching stuff via channels, that's where I'm having problems. Channel categories will show up but when I navigate to a show and choose an episode or even just one folder, I'm getting "there are no tracks". I've been searching around trying to figure out how to solve this or if anyone else has had this problem, but I'm not really seeing anything. Any help with this would be appreciated.

redonyx - read this 1st viewtopic.php?f=9&t=556 and then viewtopic.php?f=4&t=80

Alrighty, I added the "folder_limit=true" line to usm.config first to see if that would help with the "There are no files" thing and it did sometimes as I'll see files, but I wouldn't be able to access them. I then would navigate to the overflow folder but I would get the same message again. I did my best to recreate the issues but I'm not sure if the debug file would say what channels I was trying to view but it was mainly EZTV, Icefilms and watchseries while randomly picking others just to see if something would work.

I have tried many times but plugin is not working for me. I saw this in the logs:

Code: Select all

What is that "the" file? Can you check my logs please?
