Jumpy Plugin (26 October 2016)

[infidel]

i finally just cut&pasted the contents of the bookmark file from pms to ums and edited the paths accordingly, things now show up on my tv, but idk if i can add or remove. seems to be a buglet there in ums/jumpy.

Yep, there is a ums bug that screws up jumpy's bookmarks (which sad to say was created with my own participation ). I just posted a dev version of jumpy that works around it, link is on the first page at the end of the top post. Let me know if there are still any issues.

excellent it works fine now, thanks infidel

Hello all!

I'm trying to set up twitch.tv stream to my Samsung smart TV over UMS, but I have no idea where to add stream links or what else do I have to do.

I have installed Jumpy and all the things that came with it, and I can access it's GUI inside the UMS, but I don't know what to do next.
I'm very new to all the Kodi / xbmc / python /rtmpdump so ELI5

I have Samsung UE48J6200, and Windows 10 x64 on my computer. I've used Serviio before, but it has some issues with the TV I guess, because it is stuttering, even though I'm using stable 100mbps LAN network.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

optional: setup twitch in kodi (video addons) by adding your twitch username in its settings to find your follows

once jumpy is installed in ums, you go to your tv, start your media player and choose ums as your input.

then go to jumpy and look for the kodi entry.

Hm, I can see the streams, but when I try to open any of them, I get the "Unsupported file type" or "Check your connection" error.
I got the same error in Serviio when using wrong DLNA profile.
I have manually copied the contents of the "Samsung-JU6400.conf" into my .conf file that UMS uses, but it didn't resolve the issue.

I can play local files normally.

then go to jumpy and look for the kodi entry.

I don't understand this part, sorry :S

It sounds like a renderer configuration issue. Please attach a set of TRACE logs showing an attempted twitch.tv playback and hopefully we'll have some useful info .

Here is the full debug of the trace log:

I did manage to open the stream this time, but it worked for only few seconds, then it started to downgrade quality and eventually end up with "Check your connection".

Thx , and for future reference please use the 'Pack debug files' button in the Logs tab so other relevant confs + logs are included, it makes life a little simpler.

Well, according to your log

• Stream downloading itself is ok, i.e. jumpy delivers a resolved url for the twitch-tv stream and ums opens it successfully via ffmpeg.
• Renderer recognition seems problematic, your Samsung UE48J6200 is initially recognized as "Samsung E+ Series" and then switched to "Samsung C/D Series" series, so try preventing this by disabling the "Samsung C/D Series" renderer via General Configuration >> Select Renderers and restarting ums.
• Your Samsung is closing the stream, seems it's not happy with the connection (as you already know ). Does the stream play ok if you open it in Kodi?
• EDIT: to see if the problem has to do with throughput, try reducing stream quality in the addon's Kodi settings (just as a test, I know this is likely not the solution you're looking for )

hi infidel, i'm getting a weird problem, i can start a video on twitch but if i stop and restart , my tv stays blank and the log says there's no stream.

i'm thinking the initial prep jumpy/ums does to get the stream returns an extra info lost in the 2nd try. or maybe when restating the stream jumpy should redo the whole init part? it would help to get the connexion going like that 1st time.

then 2nd part of my Q is, when something goes wrong like this, is there a signal (or a video file) that ums could send to the tv to tell the user something went wrong instead of leaving us to wonder why it stays blank for too long?

3rd part: is there a way to increase the fast forward and rewind time skips to higher? just FFW skips only a few seconds, if i press ff again i'd like it to skip 30 sec at a time then a 3rd ff would skip 60 seconds at a time.

1. I have disabled the Samsung C/D Series and tried to force the default renderer ( Samsung J55xx Series ), sadly with no luck
2. The stream opens normally in Kodi on my PC.
3. I have reduced the quality inside Kodi to 480p, getting same error -> First time I launch a stream I get "Check your connection", and after that I get "Unsupported file type" for every stream/past broadcast/highlight that I try to play.

Here is the new log:

Sorry about the previous log, didnt know there was such a function before you have mentioned it

FYI: I had serious issues trying to connect to UMS from my TV. I was able to see it, but it kept trying to open the UMS forever, so I had to restart UMS and TV couple of times to make it open. ( I was also using Samsung Plex and Serviio at the same time ( disabled now )) I have now disconnected all other devices from the network, so it's just my computer and the TV now. The UMS opens fine now, but I'm still getting the mentioned issue when trying to open any stream. Thanks for the effort so far, infidel.

FYI #2: I am able to open the stream in Serviio as source quality, but it downgrades after few minutes to medium/low.
I have also tried using Samsung Plex, and the streams play fine, but the sponsored streams ( the ones that have the quality to select ) play default as low, which is completely useless, while the non-sponsored streams play fine on source without any stuttering.
