Stream .ts file in Linux

[hornetster]

Evening,
Trying to stream a .ts file from an Openelec Kodi server, to VLC (anything?) running on Opensuse Leap42.1 x64. Can open and stream directly using MXPlayer on Android. Wondering why I can't stream to VLC?
Thanks.

At that point, you haven't started playing.

[hornetster]

But it won't?

[hornetster]

Any ideas?
Thanks.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

Check the log for details.

Are you able to mount the remote filesystem in openSUSE
(Examples how to do this you can find e.g. on http://www.linuxnix.com/8-ways-to-mount ... -in-linux/ )

If this works you should be able to access to your remote video like it is local.

[hornetster]

Thanks Remi. You mean the log in my second post? Or is there another?
Winfrid: Yep, certainly can mount, and often do when copying files across to save. But it doesn't matter what I try to play it with, nothing seems to want to stream it... As I said, if I open it in MXPlayer on my Android phone/tablet, buffers for a second or two, then plays perfectly.
Thanks.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

No! The log from when you start playing, obviously.

OK. Finally figured out how to get this (realize it's not rocket science, but every program is different, particularly VLC)

smb error: open failed for '192.168.0.60/Videos/Big_Ted's_Excellent_Adventure/2016-07-10.20.07.2-0.rec/00001.ts' (Permission denied)
core error: open of `smb://192.168.0.60/Videos/Big_Ted's_Excellent_Adventure/2016-07-10.20.07.2-0.rec/00001.ts' failed

Apparently it looks like a permissions thing, which I find a bit wierd, as I can certainly connect to it using SMB (do often, and that's where I am trying to play it from...), and I can easily copy files from there, and other video progs will start downloading to play the file, but not VLC - just thows up

Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'smb://192.168.0.60/Videos/Big_Ted's_Excellent_Adventure/2016-07-10.20.07.2-0.rec/00001.ts'. Check the log for details.

And the message above...
