livestream stops after some seconds (1 Viewer)

[naich]

Hi cheezey!

First of all ... great app and thx for your work.

Except live streaming all works perfect.

My problem is, that the stream stops after some seconds. I've tried handbrake and ffmpeg (setup as described on the google code site). SD-TV streams for about 30 Seconds and HD TV only 10 seconds before the stream stops. If I use "back and forward" the stream starts again (happens on IPhone and IPad).

Thx in advance

Edit: This happens also with a perfect WLan connection!!

This is a known problem, this version is the first with live streaming and it was marked as an experimental feature.

I have recently been given access to the latest SmoothStreaming module which is used to provide the live streaming feature, hopefully this new version will help with that issue. I am in the process of setting up a test rig to try it out. (I had been using my live TV setup to test but caused it to crash big time on many occasions after which my family started to object )

BTW - The Handbrake/FFMpeg settings you are changing are nothing to do with live streaming, they are for scheduled or manual transcoding through the TV Server plugin / web app.

Hi cheezey,

When can we expect an updated version of IPIMP with the new smoothstreaming module?

Don't know. I have found a problem when trying to compile the new version of ffmpeg for the windows platform, I have reported it to the devs and they are looking at it.
