RTSP streaming when clicking a url on AminoNET 110

Postby GFORCE100 » 18 Apr 2007 15:38

Hi all,

I can't get VLC to output a RTSP video stream (only UDP/RTP) to my AminoNET 110 STB so I'm using the RTSP live5555 server instead.

If I configure the channels found in the management settings of the AminoNET 110 STB by typing in http://<my IP address>/movie.ts the stream will play just fine. The same is true if I manually type in the same url within the Opera/Fresco address bar.

If however I nest the url in a htm document, the AminoNET says this is an unknown or unsupported link type.

What am I doing wrong? I've also tried using the JMACX AVMedia.Play ("type=VOD;servertype=MediaBase;src=rtsp://10.132.35.51/movie.ts" ); command but to no avail.

Thanks.

Use ncube instead. Offset and scale only works in LIVE555 (provided you built the index tsx file)

AVMedia.Play('type=VOD;src=rtsp://<#SS_IP>/<#Alias>;servertype=ncube;offset=<#StartPos>;');

Thanks for your time.

I tried the above but nothing happens, I think JMACX isn't being interpreted by the Opera web browser.

Would you know how do I check if JMACX is properly installed on the AminoNET 110 STB?

For the software version it says: "0.13.6-A110-opera8-ami_wm-subs-bitband-2"

Thanks again.

should work. My unit has Ant Fresco browser so can't help
there.

Note: the apostrophes not quotes. If using LIVE555 make sure the movie.tsx
file is in the same directory as movie.ts

Thank you very much, it now works. I had a few other bugs to fix but once you pointed out the '' I got it working in a new clean html file which proved I had some other small bugs in my original html file.

Amino and Live555 compatibility

Postby khilliard » 22 Apr 2007 17:22

Guys,

I've just started a project to build a basic VOD server using the Amino STB. I saw in a post that you used Live555 RTSP server. We are likewise considering using this. Any problems with this package in production environment. Is it stable, reasonable performance, etc?

We want to stream DVDs to the STB. Also, does anyone know of a good package that can convert an AVI movie to a mpeg ts, which is needed by Amino? I tried using VLC but I could get VLC to play it (I only played the sound, no video). I've found good tools to convert a DVD to h.264 in an avi container (mencoder) but nothing suitable for mpegts. I found one commercial package XMuxer from Elecard that I will try.

thx for any help you can provide

Yes Live5555 is very stable 99% of the time. Only when you try and run some selected Amino JMACX javascript commands can it exit itself. I'm not sure which commands these are, but it has happened to me.
