Good time of day. Anyone have the mosaic on the new version (2.2.x) working? Now special-but downloaded 2.2.4, in the hope that maybe this fixed it. But alas... the mosaic Or buried forever....

Good time of day. In the development of the theme...

this design works fine on 2.0.7, 2.1.5 and 2.2.x stopped working. Please tell me what is moeno to do...

Frankly, mosaic and bridge modules have not been actively maintained, let alone tested, for many years. And in my limited experience, it was always flaky to begin with.

So it is not unlikely that your setup just regressed in newer VLC versions. Generally speaking, VLC stream output sorely need new investment and workforce.

Thanks for the reply! Yes, I would never touch a new version... But in 2.2.4 noticeable faster open the m3u8 streams.

If you mean HLS, that will only be properly supported in VLC 3.0 onward.
