Post subject:  Mythweb streaming

I have never been able to view the flash stream in my mythweb. When I click on a recording title, I get the detail page and I can see the flash viewer in the upper right corner. When I click on it, the flash viewer goes black and nothing happens.

I am running Mythweb on a port other then 80. Could this be the cause? I saw another posting that talked about this
http://knoppmyth.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=79800&sid=1ad11ff27a5822d7efbeb42045a62e6d
and explained how to fix it but it was for R5F27 and I am running R5.5 and I could not find any of the files that they talked about.
Is there a file somewhere that I need to enter my port number?

I realize you're running R5.5, but does this help at all?

Hi,

I think the problem with R5.5 was due to a bad version of ffmpeg. When R5.5 was first released, you could do various apt-get installs to update it. Now that R5.5 is getting a bit old, the debian 'unstable' repository is vastly different to what is was at the initial release, so any apt-get actions could do quite a bit of damage to your install. Basically you need to update your version of ffmpeg. At the time of release, this post helped many people. But I would be cautious using it now, and would probably choose the "lenny" or "squeeze" repos instead of unstable.

The post you referenced is talking about a third party flash streaming implementation which is quite different to what exists in mythtv 0.21 and higher (I know because i wrote that one). The port is meant to be 80 for 0.21 and higher.

the comment by mihanson is only valid for 0.22.

I hope this helps.

BigB.

Thanks for the ideas. I will be upgrading to Linhes in the near future so I will hold off on worrying about this for now. I assume that the flash stream in mythweb is working in 6.0 even with funny ports, right?

Hi,

It runs off the same port as mythweb (default is port 80). Unfortunately it does not work out of the box, but the only issues are configuration, and not ffmpeg versions :-)

Flash streaming works without any noted issue(s) in R6.
