rtsp streaming to Aminet 110

[klingler]

Just received a nice Aminet 110 box last week and trying now to stream via vlc to it...

In the vlc documentation it says that the Aminet boxes can receive streams from vlc...does it only mean multicast igmp streams or should rtsp also work?

Can't get to receive any rtsp streamss from vlc...multicast is fine..

rtsp is kind of broken in aminet 110. It doesn't follow the standard. That explains why it doesn't work with VLC.

you can use your amino reciving multicast using in the chanel list

igmp://224.1.1.1:1234


or unicast putting

udp://192.168.1.x:1234

igmp://224.1.1.1:1234

As already mentioned above..this works...

or unicast putting

udp://192.168.1.x:1234

I can't just send UDP packets to the Aminet box!!!

Hmm..so far only mp3 http streaming and multicast udp streaming seems to work on the Aminet...

Also the live.com RTSP implementation doesn't work...

I tried getting a AmiNet from AminoCom and they said they dont sell single units. How did you get yours?

[klingler]

Bought mine from netaccess.se which is a distributor for Scandinavian area...

Well..took some time from Aminocom to get this information...and don't expect anything else from them...asked them several times regarding flash upgrades and just dead-cow silence..

Anyway..since IBM has dropped the mpeg2 chips I don't think there will be much happening on this platform...

Maybe I can convince them to play distributor for the private market in Europe (o;

Who has some insights in the rtsp implementation of VLC?

Is it mostly handled by live.vom library code? Or is there room for some AminNet hacking inside vlc? (o;

I still get "URL" not found although URL looks okay:

Code: Select all

Dear friend,
Yes, it seems that aminet110 has problem with rtsp,
however, i have go one step more that the above info,
set the video server in aminet to ncube video server,
then at your aminet fresco location bar enter the address of the server:

rtsp://address:port//address:port/streamname

look at the format of the above command, it is unusual , but the vlc server will answer with 200 OK! and not 404 file not found.
how ever, no movie will be played again , and i do not know what can i do more.

[klingler]

Well...the documentation says about Aminet 110:


rtsp://x.x.x.x:port/program/movie

and at the VLC side the URL "/movie" is used...you don't need to put an IP address/port number in between..just some string.

Hi all !

I also got an Aminet103 with its IR pc keyboard from one of my friends and i am a little bit surprised by the fact that I can only send a Unicast stream in order to see something on the Aminet slave screen !!
So Udp://192.168.xx.xx:1234 is OK

But when i send the same video TS stream to a Multicast address I always get a black screen.
So Udp://@239.255.xx.xx:1234 is NOK

Should i try IGMP://224.255.xx.xx:1234 as proposed by Anonymous ???
(whith VLC set as Udp://@224.255.xx.xx:1234).

The only information I got about Aminet box are the passwords to enter and leave the parameters menu of the box (my friend forgot to give me the manual !!)

Ps: I also have the same black screen with HTTP.

Any suggestion ??
Thanks.

You need to set the URL in the Aminet (at least ofr my 110) to igmp://x.x.x.x:yyyy/

[RFASIC]

Thank you kingler, you are right: igmp:// ............. must be used instead of udp://@...........

ok, so no solution till now,
I think that VOD is not possible with VLC and aminet, your should provide one of those video servers suggested by amino, or, you should build your own video server. I have developed one for my own uses, using python.

I have tested amiNET110 STB, you can not use it to received rtp stream.
however, the VLC use live.com rtsp library, which packetize the data into rtp packet when using RTSP. About the RTSP of amiNET110 STB, it is not implemented in standard way. It is not good.

Forget Aminet (103 or 110) ....

They don´t work properly

i have not tested it yet, but it should be working - at least - in the near future.

O.K.
