Starman Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 I'm trying to use the DVBViewer NetStream plugin. I've enabled and selected Multicast. Interface: 192.168.0.2 (LAN) Subnet: 224.0.0.1 Port: 2345 TTL: unrestricted But when I open up VLC select open network stream. I've tried both 'UDP/RTP' and UDP/RTP Multicast but no stream plays.

Guest Lars_MQ Posted June 8, 2006 Posted June 8, 2006 the settings in vlc are: udp/rtp multicast Adress 224.0.0.1 port 2345. There may be issues with the firewall or a router, which may not be able to handle this amount of traffic. In vlc open the view -> messages window so you can see what is happening and if there are problems BTW TTL (Time to live) unrestricted is a bad idea, keep it to site. Quote
Starman Posted June 8, 2006 Author Posted June 8, 2006 Thank you - the stream is now working just fine. Can I change channels via VLC? Quote
Klausing Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 No, but you can use the DVBViewerWebserver for this. Run the Webserver on the server, open a browser on your client, type http://Server-IP:Port/fb.html and you will see a remote control for the DVBViewer. If you can read a little bit german you can have a look at: http://www.steffen-klausing.de/content4/fa...=229&artlang=de If you can't read German you can see the screenshots. BTW. Unicast is much better for network performance ! Quote
bergh Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Hello ! And last but not least the English help file shows also some information regarding Streaming over the net. Quote
Silenius Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Hello !And last but not least the English help file shows also some information regarding Streaming over the net. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Do you mean "over Internet" or is this only work on local network? Thanks Quote
hackbart Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Multicast won't work via internet (technical restrictions), but unicast does and if you have only a slow 2mbit line you should use the webserver plugin. It comes with an scaleable asf streaming routine algorithm. Christian Quote
Guest Lars_MQ Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 If you would use Unicast streaming for internet you would need a up (and the receiver down) stream between 10 mbit und 24 mbit depending on the channels bitrate. It's possible in theorie but I doubt it works in praxis. So unicast is mostly for local network. Quote
Starman Posted July 9, 2006 Author Posted July 9, 2006 I've been attemping to try and use unicast also but I don't seem to have any luck. Does anyone have any suggestions regarding what I need to do? Quote
Guest Lars_MQ Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 Well what did you try up to now? The setup isn't really hard to do. most stuff is even automated (-> DVBDiscover in the membersarea or in the devicesettings of the unicast device). Quote
Starman Posted July 9, 2006 Author Posted July 9, 2006 I don't see DVBDiscover listed within the members area. Quote
