Second file in the first post contains sources of the plugin. So unless you have interest in programming something similar, advancing the current plugin or just want to check out the code you should dismiss it.
And as I already wrote you should start streamts on telnet and see what you get.

You should enter full path to the script to execute it:
/usr/local/bin/scrplg-start-streamts.sh
but type in "killall streamts" first to make sure it is not running already.
It should say:
[streamts.c] streamts successfully started
done

if everything is fine.

If you get that then you can try opening the stream directly with VLC. By choosing open network stream, http... url:
http://ipbox-ip:4000
That would bypass browser problem if that is the case.

BTW, this plugin isn't of much use until they fix the network problem. Because network dies after few mins of streaming.

i did what you said m8, and i did get the message " streamts succesfully started " but still not getting video, also i tried entering the url in VLC itself and still no luck m8.

i think i will leave it for now m8 until a future image comes out. or a fix.

i can stream from my DM600 Which suggests the problem lies down to the ip9000

thanks a lot for your help anyway m8, its all a good learning curve for me.

Sorry, aftermath_original, can't really think of anything else. You have streamts running with no errors so it should imply that everything is fine on ipbox, don't see what could be wrong on PC either at least when using VLC directly to open the stream.

Anyway, just thought I should add something about that picture jittering I mentioned earlier. I noticed it today on Premiere HD even with time shift off. But enabling time shift, and pausing the picture for few seconds gets rid of the picture problems. Maybe ipbox has less problems processing recorded program from hard drive then live stream.

Hi mate


just an update for ya


i sent you a couple of PMs about having problems recording..

was having probs trying to record things. it would say recording but it was not.

i remembered that the hard drive had been still the same from last image....

so from this latest AB image i thought about formating the drive again.

Now recording is working fine.

so i thought has this been the problem with the streaming to PC,.

switched on webtv, hey presto, it works, apart from the bugs which we know about.

Hope this is usefull info to you mate

I have the same problem, vlc cone with ie and not video with mozilla. I have upgraded to the latest sifteam image (hopeing that would fix it). From reading above formatting the drive fixed your problem

I think that when you change image, do a hard drive Format from that new image, looks like different images might change the way the drive formats.

It deffo was the problem i was having, once i re-formated drive with new image , everything was ok, but remember , there is still bugs with streaming just yet, especially with the latest ABcom image, you might see video for about a minute then freezes.

Thanks i tried formatting, but i still have the same problem, i also tried cuberevo firmware and the latest sifteam (formated in both). One thing i have noticed i have a 1tb drive and the format does not seem to take that long. I may try a external usb drive that i have spare, and see if that works.

ok guys, i've managed to get mine working, i tried with ntfs partitioned sata2 drive and it didnt seem to work, wouldnt go into hdd menu, however this takes quite some time i have found, try waiting 2 mins and press ok to go into hdd menu several times.

I didnt realise that so i deleted my ntfs partition and left it with 320gb unallocated space then connected it to my icybox and to the ipbox which it said loading when i rebooted the box but hdd menu didnt work but waiting for around 2 mins pressing ok finally got into the hdd menu. I did a test recording of bbchd, worked perfectly, a nice .trp file. i demuxed the file with tsremuxer, doesnt play in vlc player but plays in latest mpc home cinema. dgmpgdec opens it fine and saves as .d2v fine. gordian knot and megui load the .d2v perfectly.

So sata2 drives DO work, well atleast for me, hopefully this info might help you guys out.

It is mentioned already, there is a problem with high network load, it kills the network completely. Hopefully they'll fix it soon in new firmwares.

webtv 0.1.3

Code: 
This add-on allows you to watch the tv stream from the 
Cuberevo over an web interface.

[B]INSTALL:[/B]
Copy var/bin form the archive to /var/bin on the box.
Copy /var/www from the archive to the webif folder on your box 
(for example /var/www).

Make sure all script files and binarys are executable! (/var/bin, cgi-bin)

[B]USAGE:[/B]
Surf to http://boxip/webtv/

It's tested on Firefox and Internet Explorer 7.
Javascript is required.

Above the video frame you have the basic controls to switch the channels.
The addon loads all channels in your favourites list.

[B]REQUIREMENTS:[/B]
- At least firmware R8022 is required!
- Time shifting needs to be active.

CAN HD CHANNELS BE STREAMED?
Streaming works for 720p channels, but for 1080i there is not enough network bandwidth.
Those are my test results, also try it for yourselfs.

[B]KNOWN PROBLEMS:[/B]
- VLC 0.9.2 has a bug which leads to a black screen.
- Because of a network bug on the cuberevo, the network of the box       
  probably will die after some time.
See this thread for a solution.

[B]LICENSE:[/B]
All files are under the GPL.

[B]CREDITS:[/B]
The server side code for the streaming is based on the streamts app.

[B]NEW RELEASE 0.1.3:[/B]
- fixed bugs with handling of timeshift files in streamts
- fixed segfault under certain conditions

RELEASE 0.1.3:
------------------
- fixed bugs with handling of timeshift files in streamts
- fixed segfault under certain conditions in streamts

NEW RELEASE 0.2:
------------------
- Stream is read directly from hardware, instead of timeshift files (thanks to soon and kneubi from denktenk)

(This feature does not work in mplayer.)
- The stream starts playing directly after opening the webif

Enjoy it!
