I succeeded to stream on a Pace DSL 4000 but with VLS the STB is able of RTSP urls. I started the VLS with vls -d udp:multicast-address:port file:file-to-stream.mpg -ttl 2 -loop then on the STB in the javascript code you must use the mediactrl object: The MediaCtrl object is a specific Javascript ob...

thinking about it, you can enhanced the VoD service using command line on VLS...
using the same principle to start the video, you can create scripts to pause, forward... the video.

Hi Jiny, to set up VLAN as VoD service with a STB it is the way I done it: I used rtsp multicast address on the STB (I did not try unicast, I dont know if it would work). You first "tune" the STB to the mutlicast address (on the PACE DSL 4000 HTML and JavaScript able it is in JavaScript: m...

I did my master thesis using the Pace DSL 4000 STB setting up a itv platform and basic of a VOD service.
I used video lan for streaming (multicast rtsp address) on the STB and it worked perfectly !

I succeed to set up a basic VOD system with a PACE DSL 4000 and VLS.
But VLS does not support RTSP except the RTSP url. SO the only thing you can do is to watch Video but no pause, forward, only stop.

Hi, I am using VLS to stream files on a multicast network. When I stream the presentation_short.vob, it is perfect, I can loop it and the Pace DSL 4000 STB can read it. I created other files as I am working on a project on the STB. I can stream those files to the STB and are decoded. Unfortunately t...

I set up a VOD server using VLS on a Linux computer
what you can do is to store (Perl, bash...) scripts on your http server, and start VLS with those scripts and it works quite ok. You dont need to store your video file on the HTTP server, just the scripts.

Does your network configuration support UDP ?

are you sure the LAN you are in is Multicast able ?
multicast routers need certain features as beeing able to copy the streamed data, managing the multicast session and protocols (IGMP..)

ask your system administrator if the LAN is multicast able.

maybe I am wrong, but how come you are on the same LAN and dont have the same network number in your IP addresses ? My Computer has the IP Address 134.168 .30.164 (Win XP) The Computer of a Colleague has the IP Address 145.168 .30.178(Win 2K) http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/ito_doc/...

Hi, I am working with a Pace DSL 4000 STB (bit old I know). I succeed to stream the presentation_short.vob (available here:http://www.videolan.org/doc/videolan-howto/en/ch04.html) file on the STB. I tried to stream other files on the STB and none of them work. So the question is: what are the exact ...
