(single seat -> multiseat) For the past few years I've been running a script to compress my .ts recordings by running comskip then mencoder over them as soon as they've finished recording (comskip launcher in tv-server). I also wrote a utility to update the recordings database to show the filename as .avi instead of .ts. This has worked fine for the past few years on my single seat installation. However, after moving (and having to build a new server), I found recorded shows couldn't be watched.. I just get a black screen as if the show has started streaming but no content comes down. To prove the problem I turned off the comskip launcher and found that recordings worked again... In the logs you'll see I play a recorded tv program that is a .ts, this works.. then I stop the playback and play an older recording (csi-miami) that's been comskipped and xvid'd which just hangs on a black screen.. I can watch the xvid compressed files fine using my videos...! Is this functionality meant to work?? Or, was I just lucky under single seat... Does the RTSP streaming support an xvid file? I thought it might be a codec problem on the server so I installed ffdshow but this didn't help. Your advice is sought :D Thanks erosco [/QUOTE]
