Hi I would like to try your iPiMP - but before I would like to ask a few questions.

You state in you post on the previous page that the Opera browser is supported, does that mean that I can use my HTC P3600 (a windows mobile)?

What I really would like to do is listen to Internet radio, and navigate to the correct station without turning on the TV (just for navigation purpose) - will it be possible to navigate to the correct station within iPiMP?

I make a new installation and the same failure. When I start Transcode over the Start Menu in Vista it works

My log looks like this

Output #0, mp4, to 'E:/MP4\Six Nations Rugby - BBC ONE - 2009-03-21.mp4':
Stream #0.0: Video: [B]libx264[/B], yuv420p, [B]480x272[/B] [PAR 136:135 DAR 16:9], [B]q=10-51[/B], 200 kb/s, 25.00 tb(c)
Stream #0.1(eng): Audio: libfaac, [B]48000 Hz, stereo,[/B] s16, 128 kb/s

Your log looks like this

Output #0, mp4, to 'D:/mediacenter/aufnahmen/ipod\Fringe - Grenzfälle des FBI - ProSieben Austria - 2009-03-23_3.mp4':
Stream #0.0: Video: [B]mpeg4[/B], yuv420p, [B]720x576[/B] [PAR 64:45 DAR 16:9], [B]q=2-31[/B], 200 kb/s, 25.00 tb(c)
Stream #0.1(deu): Audio: libfaac, s16, 64 kb/s

And you get the error

[libfaac @ 024E7500]encoding 0 channel(s) is not allowed
Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

So for whatever reason your iPiMP is not using the default parameters, your audio settings do not define the number of channels to encode - so ffmpeg has defaulted it to 0 which is invalid.

On the iPiMPTranscodeToMP4 plugin setup screen in TV server there is a Default button which when pressed reset the parameters to

-threads 4 -re -vcodec libx264 -s 480x272 -flags +loop -cmp +chroma -deblockalpha 0 -deblockbeta 0 -crf 24 -bt {0}k -refs 1 -coder 0 -me_method umh -me_range 16 -subq 5 -partitions +parti4x4+parti8x8+partp8x8 -g 250 -keyint_min 25 -level 30 -qmin 10 -qmax 51 -trellis 2 -sc_threshold 40 -i_qfactor 0.71 -acodec libfaac -ab {1}k -ar 48000 -ac 2

As you can see the default parameters match what is in my log.

So can you confirm you click the Default button, restart TV service and retry the transcoding and again send an error.log

These parameters are stored in your TV Server database in the settings table, you could check them in there too.

Hi I would like to try your iPiMP - but before I would like to ask a few questions.

You state in you post on the previous page that the Opera browser is supported, does that mean that I can use my HTC P3600 (a windows mobile)?

My post states Secondly I have updated all links so the navigation now works with the Opera browser, so maybe someone with a windows mobile device could give it a go and feedback?? There will still be some display issues with opera, e.g. the help text in textboxes doesn't appear in my desktop opera.

I have briefly tested this on the desktop Opera browser and can navigate through the app, what we now need is a windows mobile user to install it, try it & feedback.

What I really would like to do is listen to Internet radio, and navigate to the correct station without turning on the TV (just for navigation purpose) - will it be possible to navigate to the correct station within iPiMP?

iPiMP does not support radio channels yet. But it will!

Hey, thanks for the new version cheezey! I now have a working install, no more installation errors

One small issue, I'm having the zero-size thumbnail issue like someone else reported a few weeks ago...any clue? So far I have only tested thumbnails created during a manual transcode...

I'll try a scheduled transcode and see if the same issue exists there.

Thanks again for a killer app!

--------------------

Update: OK, I set iPiMP to transcode immediately and recorded a short program...transcode worked fine with thumbnail...so it appears the zero-size thumbnail occurs only for manual transcode

Can you also recreate this and send your C:\Program files\iPiMP\apache\logs\error.log

Hi Cheezey. The transcode Problem comes from the default Values. Now it works (-;

Hi Cheezey. The transcode Problem comes from the default Values. Now it works (-;

You mean you reset the transcode parameters to their default values and it works?

Good news!

Hi Cheezey, first thx for the new version !

Server Error in '/' Application

Hello,

I installed IPimp yesterday 3.4.0. I choose "MediaPortal remote control web installation", I just change port 88, and finished installation. Then I tried to access the web site and I got the following error:

Are you sure your TV server is up and the TVService is running? MP Remote control does not try to connect to the TV server but all other functions do.

There looks to be nothing wrong in your logs, can you post C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\web.config
