I just upgraded to R5E50. I've posted in other messages about a MythArchive issue and about an audio hardware problem running the bootable frontend on a Thinkpad, and I just noticed this problem:

I just tried to use MythStreamTV to stream one of my recorded programs. The video starts up okay, but there's no audio. I can confirm that the recorded file has audio, and I've confirmed that shows recorded earlier (before the upgrade to E50), and which I was able to stream with audio earlier, behave the same way (no audio) when I stream them now.

In case it's relevant, my capture card is a Hauppauge PVR-350.

Not sure if anyone here is experiencing the same problem, but I saw a post on videolan.org about a similar problem. I'm seeing the same things in my /myth/streamtv/log.txt file (after adding a -v to the line in mythstreamtv.sh hat calls vlc):

[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity
[00000284] main input warning: clock gap, unexpected stream discontinuity

and also a bunch of

[00000304] main private warning: backward_pts != current_pts (11970)
[00000304] main private warning: vout synchro warning: pts != current_date (27400)

I am experiencing the same issue...no audio. In addition, it doesn't appear the controls on the streaming page do anything.

I'll check the /myth/streamtv/log.txt file when I get home tonight.

I am experiencing the exact same issues. Please let me know what you find out

I've found that, while there's no audio when the stream's played in Windows Media Player, if I play the http stream in mplayer under linux it works, audio and all.

So it's not that there's no audio, it's that the audio stream has changed. I can't get audio in WMP no matter which audio encoding I choose.


Is there other information I can get/provide to help figure out this problem?



Kevin

try the vlc windows client for playback

Yup, Windows VLC client audio works. I've tried WMP on four different machines, all no audio.

I still don't know the deal with sound and Windows Media Player, but I did find a fix for the controls.

Edit the following files ....

/usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/streamtv/tmpl/default/selectstream.php
/usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/streamtv/tmpl/default/createfile.php

in both files, find occurrences of this path ...

/usr/share/mythstreamtv/

and replace it with ...

/myth/streamtv/

You'll need to do the same thing to the same named files in the .../compact directory as well if you use that template.

In addition, I found the path to the ivtv-tune binary in this file ...

/myth/streamtv/ivtv-tune.sh

needs to be changed from...

/usr/bin/ivtv-tune

to...

/usr/local/bin/ivtv-tune

That makes the channel change command go thru, but I haven't yet figured out what it's supposed to do.
