Btw on a galaxy s II streaming works extremely well (video content as well as live tv). On a HTC Desire HD video didn't play if it had 5.1 audio.

There seems to be quite a discrepency between devices when it comes to video codecs.

Help Needed!
There are still a few languages left for translating. I would much appreciate if we could find someone to translated the app to Italian and Russian. Of course every additional language is most welcome.

All translators will receive a testversion in the near future so they can test the localised versions on their devices.

From my experiance the Samsung is the most powerful device on the market for now - compared to tablets (also the Samsung Galaxy Tab) and Motorolla Xoom, HTC Sensation .. it's the only device capable of playing a stream using serviio and UPnplay with subtitles in an MKV file (like animes are) over the Mobo player ...

When you check on teh Moboplayer you will find several different codecs for devices - so one for all doesn't seem to fit. At least when there are diffent task in addition like Subtitles.

But - looking forwad waht' going to come (and what the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is going to bring us )

Hi Guys,

awesome plugin! Now i can maybe trash my ForTheRecord completely when i can access MP TV-Server from remote.

Only thing which isn't working really is LiveTV Streaming.

I try this on a HTC Desire (not HD) and most of the times, vPlayer as well as Moboplayer keep crashing - and if vplayer works, it's stuttering at best.

Android device is connected via 802.1g WiFi (49MBit/s shown on Fritz!Box), so it should be enough bandwidth.

Any idea what could be missing?

Or is Desire simply to weak to play the original stream?
Transcoding is out of the question, as MP TVServer is running on an Atom WHS Box...


Thanks to anyone for your feedback!

Best regards,
Klaas.

I think the Desire is indeed to slow to play the original stream, given the problems it usually has with high-quality video. Haven't tried it though.

Well, subtitles in an MKV file works on my Desire too. The real problems are high resolutions and advanced codecs. All devices out there claim to support H.264 baseline and AAC audio, but at least the original Galaxy S doesn't make this claim true. Moboplayer isn't relevant as it uses software decoding and we want to use hardware decoding for performance and because that's way easier to integrate.

Note btw that subtitles aren't supported for now.

@DieBagger: try adding -ac 2 to the profile, it converts the 5.1 audio to stereo.

So this would be one of the first attempts to do it over the HW - the only other device I have seen so far are the Archos ones using the Chip itself - and they also start to stutter after a couple of minutes. Of course you are right I'm speaking about the h264 with mkv subtitles. It's working on most devices but get async with about 1 second in dely. Only on the Galaxy S2 it is working properly. Do you know a player using HW itself for decoding which is working?

Yeah that's what I did...

Hi, is there support for external (srt) subtitles?
If not, is it planned to be implemented?
