TCPMP Streaming issues!!!

Hey guys im having a problem that makes absolutely no sense. I am trying to use tcpmp to stream video over edge/lan and NOTHING WORKS. All i get is MMS Protocol no supported when i have it checked along with http and everything else. I tried restarting my phone, NOTHING. Tried reinstalling on the sd or phone, NOTHING. I havent even heard audio without video, windows media player works but doesnt show video on edge. I dont understand this, nothing streams correctly or at all. I even overclocked and it didnt make a difference. Can someone please enlighten me because this just doesnt make any sense at all, thanks!

Ok! Go to http://mobile.ardcorp.tv using your mobile web browser. When you get to Staurn Liberty"s web site scroll down to first radiation circle sign, (it should say Saturn Liberty Device Definition TV) in the first rectangle box, click on it there and it should open your TCPMP/Player and play a up to date movie. You can do the same in the next rectangle box below that say (COSMOVISION Digital TV) it to will open also a up to date movie when you click on the rectangle box. If you are still having problem get back with me. Oh! Another thing on your TCPMP/Player make sure you have installed the two DLL codecs and that you have gone in the File Association area and check mark all the blocks. Please do not try to make a connection while your device is still connected to your PC via active sync........!

And what was so difficult about explaining this? Why couldn't you do this in the other thread?

Iplayer now working!!!

Found that if you go on opera and go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer it works!!!
as quoted here.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/where_to_get_iplayer/
you dont need flash it uses the video player app on Touch HD, says it works for Xperia users too and Omnia!!!
have fun, ohh you can do the following
CATCHUP
WATC LIVE TV
LISTEN TO LIVE RADIO

I don't know about anybody else.... but I already knew this! I've been using Iplayer on my Touch HD since Christmas (when I got my Touch HD).
The problem, still, is that you need wifi... you can't use your Data Connection!

I'm still having trouble. From the other threads I think a few people still do.
I've tried several times. No luck. It opens in the video player but then just hangs on "connecting".
Now that the blackstone is supported there shouldnt be any need to change the user agent... but still?

Same thing happens with mine anyone out there got any ideas?

sorry i only just found this out have been watching ot through skyfire lol. i was impressed with both

My understanding is iPlayer works only on 3 and vodafone over their network at the moment. I've used it with 3 no problems.

^ True, but it should work over wifi no matter what network you use.
In my case and others, the Touch HD can't deal with Iplayer via wifi out the box.

Those of you having problems over wifi might find the problem is nothing to do with the BBC or the Touch, but your router/firewall. I have two wifi networks in my house - one is within my network behind the gateway/firewall PC and another is right at my broadband modem (in the DMZ).
Connecting directly through the broadband modem means I can watch the iPlayer no problem, but if I'm behind the gateway then the HD's streaming app can't connect. I haven't bothered to investigate which ports I need to open in the gateway to make it work within the network but I assume it must be possible.
Hope this helps suggest a pointer for investigation.

are you sure its the main site and not this one: www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer

it doesn't matter if you type in bbc.co.uk/iplayer, it redirects you automatically to the mobile version.

I get: "Please switch to Wifi to play this programme.".
I'm from the Netherlands and use the Vodafone network, how can i resolve this problem?

i am on T-mobile uk, and i also get pls switch to wifi, thing is.... if you was near wifi, your probably at home, use the pc to watch iplayer lol. Guess theres always the usefulness for the toilet lol

I have the same problem where it hangs on connecting,
i've seen a video of it running but the media player the guys using isn't
the standard pvplayer that comes with the touch hd out of the box.

anyone know what media player that is?

everyone keeps saying this but it's not on mine. is it somewhere on my system? i've looked through every executable and it's like my touch hd
didn't come with the standard software.

That media player is not the default one that opens when I try to use Iplayer either. Mine has less and smaller icons. They're circles too. Not Square.
If the problem is with the router/firewall, does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
The youtube player works perfectly over both wifi and 3g. I also have Gremote working fine... both of which require connections to the PC..?

Not working no more
I NEED HELP. i had bbc iplayer working for couple of months now. and suddenly when i want to watch something i get an error. i can go on the site, that loads up perfectley www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer yeah that loads up fine. but when i go down and click on drama or comedy, i get an error saying check server snd url. it worked b4 and its not working now. im obviously using it through wifi.
HELP PLEASE!

All I did was added web interface and connected from phone it's working perfectly on my Galaxy S and absolutely love it!!!
Oooh wonder if I can stream DVDs to my phone? That would be epic!

What file formats work for you?
I spent hours trying to get the damn thing to work, port forwarding, rtsp commandline codes, telenet interface, web interface. HOURS and nothing streamed atall, not even music.
What exactly was it you did? mine gets stuck on buffering and no video or audio appears
Load vlc, web interface, open media file and it worked?

Well for me I opened VLC on my computer and added the web interface.
Then I opened VLC Stream & Convert on my phone, went to connect and clicked scan. It found my computer so I clicked connect then just clicked browse and picked any movie in different formats (wmv, mp4, mov, avi) and it played fine... Do you have a router? Maybe it's something to do with that, I don't know? Also the only firewall I have is just Mac OS X built in one

works perfectly.
Only 2 things to correct.
the apk will stay always on. Need a task killer do close the app.
and a strange error always showing:
INFO: a processing error occurred.
Tested in my lan and externally. working good.
Amazing app. now the only thing missing is a way to reproduce the my dreambox to vlc ( easy ) and then be able to open it with vlc in my galaxy...

Got it working, didn't realize it was something as simple as HAVING to use the in built browser... damn it lol
Few bugs, annoying bitrate limit, minor sound glitches, sometimes audio goes out of sync and audio wont play for some files
Otherwise a great app, wish VNC could resize subs though, causes some issues

For the audio sync problems (or no audio at all) I forced it to Stereo under rtsp video settings and now is playing all my files fine.

Hi if you hold long Play/Pause button this is equal to Stop and than "Back" button to exit the APP
Processing error bug me too.
I will like to use this app to stream my dreambox TV-outside home network. So i Have sugestion to have different profile to stream depending of internet speed.
kinder__bueno do you find how to watch dreambox stream on Galaxy S?

Excellent, dead easy to set up & works reasonably well. Watched a 90min film last night, the sound cut out for about 5 seconds 4 times during playback (no real biggie) Cant get sound from MKV files though, any ideas?

If the mkv have multichannel sound, you have to set channels to stereo in the settings to get sound on the stream to the galaxy s.

Why install this when you can just check "share" in windows media player and use built-in AllShare app? Or am I missing something?

Windows Media Player doesn't exist on a Linux system?

Wmp also doesn't stream many file types. Importantly not 1080p video.
Vlc encodes and streams everything
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I see in the market that there are 2 versions of "VLC Stream & Convert".
Can anybody tell me what exactly the difference is between them?
And is it possible to watch live Dreambox streams on my Galaxy S by using the VLC server and this app?
With Dogaplayer and a VLC server I can watch the current Dreambox stream on my Galaxy S over LAN, WAN and 3G/H. But I can't control it, the server only streams the Dreambox stream when it was started.

Very nice app
Minor problem (also have this with AllShare) is that I can't correct wrong aspect ratio, wide videos appear stretched (long faces).
Any way I can fix this besides re-encoding? The videos play fine (albeit letterboxed) in vlc and mplayer.

Whats the video quality like?
and does it give you a guide on setting up the web interface and all that?

works well with wifi at home but it doesnt when you try with 3g. It just stays with buffering message forever.

Quality is good. (Air video was better)
No guide needed, just follow the steps on the page posted a few posts up.
Got myself an ipad the other day and installed Air Video on it. WOW what a great program, its so easy to use and quality is insane!!! I hope something this good will be made for android very soon.

I don't need it because I know a way to use the wifi network to share your media libraries and stream the media to your phone. It's way better. I also can do it through Bluetooth.

So it can access the files anywhere? Cause this would be awesome to use with my Epic. I got alot of videos and music on my laptop. So if I was on my 3G network, I can wirless stream my music and videos?

No, wifi and Bluetooth only.

Dockstar for PC
It works as a virtual drive. I have one and it is very useful in the house since I dont have to connect my hardrive to anything in order to access it. another useful thing i do with is transfer files...my brother has the password to it so he downloaded the desktop plugin. Now whenever we want to show each other a movie or song...we just copy and paste the file onto the virtual drive like we would a folder on our computer and we have full access to the newly uploaded content...
the only draw back is in playback of your movies and music when not on the same network...it takes a while to load, and you have to deal with constant buffering.

MX Player Codec?

I have a codec called ARM v7 Neon, but my tablet's processor is Exynos 5 Octa.
Since I am having stuttering issues with HD video streamed over AC WiFi, I figured maybe the codec was an issue.
If I aim my AC-enabled laptop at the same HD video file over the same WiFi connection it plays on Windows Media Player without a hitch.
MX player is good for about 25 seconds of "good" playback before the audio clipping (?) sets in. It's not horrendous - the speakers are legible and the image looks perfect. Pausing playback for five seconds and then resuming gives another 25 seconds of good playback.
So.... have I got the right codec?
Some other issue?

Rates According To Windows

It is a .MPG file recorded straight from the over-the-air stream.
Windows.Properties.Video says Total Bitrate = 16,408kbps, Data rate = 16,216kbps
Windows.Properties.Audio says Bit rate = 192kbps, Audio sample rate = 48 kHz
I've got a trimmed version (2 minutes/200 megs) that I could post somewhere, but to reproduce the problem it would have to be viewed over 802.11AC.
Video looks a-ok, it's the audio that is problematic. Over N, audio is almost unintelligible right from the start. But over AC it's perfect for about the first ten seconds and then playback has to be paused for five seconds to get perfect playback for another 20-30 seconds. But even when it's "bad" under AC, it's not nearly as bad as under N.
But I have to keep coming back to the fact that an AC-capable laptop has no problems at all.

Exynos is an Arm proc.... The problem is not the codec.

Video stream playback issues are hard to track down so it may take a lot of trial and error. So get ready for a lot of questions.
I think this could be an audio codec issue not video.........
If you give me a link to that trimmed file I can test it as I have an AC1300 router.
Are you making these video files or are you downloading them? If your making them can I ask why are you using .mpg over say .mkv or .mp4 as I believe those have better audio codec choices.
When you go into your tablets wifi settings what is the link speed in Mbps?
Are you the same distance from the router when you use the laptop and the tablet? Are you streaming this from your computer or from a drive on the router?
Have you installed an app like Wifi Analyzer to see what your signal stream looks like.
Have you tried a few of the other video players in the play store like the ones below to see if they may work better.
Mobo Video Player Pro
HD Video Player
iMPlayer+
VPlayer Video Player

It's all over the place. Seems like it returns some recent figure rather than the max speed.
I've seen well over 400kbps and the Ubiquiti "UniFi Controller" app used for setup and oversight of the WAP is reporting "40.0M" right now as the tablet is playing the video.

OK, got the file.
Voice to lips is off on desktop pc, converted to.MP4 voice is right on and file went from 200mb to 145mb with same compression. What model SilconDust tuner are you using as the picture is great. So is your stream from a recorded file on your hard drive or a direct live stream from your SilconDust tuner.
How are you getting the signal to your tablet, with an app?
Streams to my SM-P600 using MXplayer on a 5GHz N router voice is out of sync a little but no audio clipping for entire 2 minute clip.
Will update later about the 5GHz AC router as it is at my home.

Download the newest XBMC alpha and try that one.

All I can find on the devices is "Silicon Dust HD HomeRun Dual ATSC Tuner". No model numbers. I have two boxes. Each box has two tuners in it.
I use SageTV to schedule and record. As I understand it from the SageTV docs there is zero processing/transcoding going on. Sage just takes the signal from the HD HomeRun and writes it to disc. Voice/video synch for the local PBS station is not always that wonderful - even when viewed directly on my TV.

That one may have gone over my head.
I am using FX File Manager to link to the Windows-shared drive on the PC where the files live. When I "Open" a .mpg file, Android turns it over to MX Player unless I do an "Open With". So I *think* the answer is that the tablet app is reading the file directly.

Unencumbered by any knowledge of this stuff, I'm starting to think I have a problem with my tablet. If it plays OK on your P600 over the AC router maybe you can share the exact filenames of both your video and audio drivers and, hopefully, there will be a difference against mine....

But MX Player Pro | Settings | Decoder | General | Custom Codec | (navigated to folder containing abovementioned .apk) threw "Cannot Load Custom Codec. Use Default Codec Instead."

I mean install the apk and try to play the video with XBMC.

Please tell me were your files reside (computer, laptop, router??) and how your laptop gets and plays them VS. how does you tablet get access to those files.
My files are stored on a hard drive that is attached to a USB port on my AC router, my tablet uses MediaHouse UPnP / DLNA browse to gain access to those files and then MX Player opens the video file for viewing.

The problem file resides on a 2-TB hard drive that is connected to a Windows 7 PC.
I *think* the laptop and the tablet access the file in the same manner: via a Windows connection as in NET USE - but I don't know enough about Android (or, for that matter, Windows) to say the methods are exactly the same. All I can say for sure is that, in both cases, I specify a DeviceName\ShareName to make the connection. The tablet is using v2.3.0.10 of the "FX" file manager with the FX "Network" add-in. I get the directory list in FX, tap on the file name, and MX Player takes over.
On the laptop, I'm using Windows Media Player.

I tried your file again using FX file manager and I get the same results, smooth playback entire time.
The 2tb drive your using is it a portable drive? How many hard wired devices are sharing your network? How many wireless devices share your network?
I have a tivo, TV and a computer hard wired on my network and only my table uses my wireless connection. Have you tried using Media House that I mentioned in one of my other postings, you may get a different result and it shows album art and shows a photo from video as an icon.
