[fixed] (Some) H264 recordings will not play (1 Viewer)

[tourettes]

There seems to be two different issues:

1) stream contains lot of broken TS packets (MDAPI in use or bad signal).

This issue can be fixed by allowing TsReader to scan the TS file for longer amout of data to detect the video content. CDeMultiplexer:tart() should be modified to allow that to happen. I see no risks in that (could only cause longer stall for video playback startup when the file is invalid)

2) Something funky with the A/V sync code or timestamps

TsReader tries to correct the A/V sync compensation after the TS clip is played a bit. I cannot fix this since I don't know enough how current A/V sync code in TsReader works. Hopefully Ambass has some time to check this later.

I'm currently posponing the issue to RC4 since Ambass is really busy with non-MP related things.

Looks like that was caused by slow CPU + debug mode TsReader.ax binary on my dev PC. Now the video playts nicely. Let's see what our testers say...

Fix commited in SVN revision 25704 -> will be included in RC3.

Going to test now with the supplied .ts

Today I discovered the same problem with mpeg2 files

Seems like your first post on this topic, where is your logging?

Else we can not check if you are indeed having the same problem.

Also a sample TS file wouldn't hurt since logging is not telling everyting.

Confirmed fixed, i now have image here. Does take some time (couple of seconds) to start the video, but that doesn't matter i think.

Can confirm that too tested on RC2 and SVN 25704. Video has been revealed with provided sample
