I don't get any audio when streaming recordings. They are HD shows recorded with the pcHDTV HD3000.

It looks great, but I just can't hear anything. Any ideas?

I suggest checking on the vlc forum. http://www.vlc.org
you can see the command that is executed...that script will show the actual vlc command. maybe a tweek of the vlc parms (there are a million of them) will help you out.

there is also a mythstreamtv forum here
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mythstreamtv/

Josh, the original mythstreamtv guy no longer use knoppmyth so i doubt he monitors this forum. the are a few other sharp folks there as well.

if you make any headway let us know.

Will do. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

I dont get any audio from my HD recordings either. Now that I think about it, I have not tried to stream any recordings that were captured using an analog capture card.

HMmh.

What I tried to do, to fix the problem, is in this thread.

I have manually tried to configure vlc via commandline with different codecs, muxs and all, still no audio.

Only thing I can think of, is that the HD3000 stream is mpeg directly....whereas, anything captured via an analog card (hauppauge, etc) has to be transcoded as it is written to disk. (I think.)

I CAN use nuvexport on any .nuv file (including ones recorded by pdHDTV) and there is audio in the outputted mpeg.

Well, I still cant stream via VLC.

However, I can now download the .nuv file to my windows machine and play it with VLC and get audio.

I could only get audio, after I re-ran mythtv-setup, Selected #2 (capture cards) selected my DVB card, selected "Advanced Configuration", selected Recording Options and then put a check mark in the box "Record in TS format instead of PS"

I then exited out, restarted mythbackend and recorded a new show.

Any new recordings, now have playable audio in VLC for windows.

Note: Mplayer could play the nuv file before and get audio.

Now, my VLC streamin script gives a new error.....

yeah you kinda screwed yourself on the streaming. currently streaming doesn't support TS.

Good to know, but at least now I can watch my HD shows on my laptop or copy them to a usb HD and bring them with me to watch at a later point without having to run nuvexport.

I too am now in this 'quiet' place. I deduced that only PS recordings would play over mythstream after trial and error, TS files just go all blocky.

Though I also noticed that I get no audio when playing these PS files direct on say WMP10 or zoomplayer under windows though TS files play with audio+video fine. Both TS & PS play fine with audio under mplayer for windows though?

Anyway I tracked through mythweb/mythstream.sh to make this command that I can run from the command line to stream a PS recording



I can pick up the stream on wmp10 from mms://mythtv:8001/ Video is fine but BUT alas no audio.

I tried `# apt-get install vlc libdv...` as detailed on vlc site
This installed vlc 0.8.4 to /usr/bin (current = 0.8.1 @ /usr/local/bin) but this just broke streaming completely so `# apt-get remove vlc` put it back as was.

I then tried install_mythstreamtv.sh that ran and tried to update mplayer though I already updated to the latest version anyway. This didn't improve things.

It may just be a config file or that a new vlc will work but needs to be config'd OR installed from source. Rather than any more guessing on my part and maybe nuking my otherwise working system I wonder if anyone can shed any light on a solution or course of action to achieve one.
