MP2 - V2.5 TVMosaic Provider for MP2 (5 Viewers)

Logs attached. All files are existing as in your screenshot:

Thanks, I think I found it, for client debug builds the plugin was being built as x86 rather than AnyCPU so was copied to the wrong directory, (bin/x86/Debug as in your screenshot when it should be bin/Debug) so it was not being loaded by the Client. It should work OK in Release builds, or pull the solution changes I just pushed and build again.

Playback starts now, but I have the next issue. I hear the sound of the recording, so something is playing, but no video. Additionally the "pause" icon is always shown and no progress and further infos in player controls.

I cleaned and rebuild the solution already, no change. Error logs are empty and nothing suspicious in client logs. Same for release and debug builds.

Screenshot while I play a recording and hear audio:

Edit: If you have any idea and there is something to check by myself, let me know.

Yes the current player was a hack, though I was still getting video. I've pushed some changes which include a better player which seems to work properly and you should now get thumbnails. You'll need to remove the share and reimport so the recordings get the correct mime type for the player. If you still don't get video I'll need a full debug log.

That was a step further, but one issue remains.
Thumbnails of recordings appear now. The player controls are also visible now.
But I still can just hear audio and do not see video. Live-Tv and other recordings work normally.

@Brownard
Unfortunately I found also another issue. I've 3 grouped "manual recordings". I still can not play those at all, message is again "no player ...".
Related client logs attached.

Thanks, it's a bit strange as no video tracks are detected for this first file, and those other files just cause the source filter to throw an unknown error. Can you manually paste the stream links in your web browser, which should cause the files to be downloaded (I get an mpeg file), and see if they play OK in another player to rule out TvMosaic breaking them somehow when streaming..
This is your no video link

If you can, try and avoid VLC player as it doesn't use DirectShow like MP2 does, best would be to import the files into MP2 and try in there but worth testing on Windows Media Player or the windows 'Films & TV' player first.

I tried playback with WMP and also imported them into MP2 as normal videos, they are playing without issues.
I also removed 2/3 files to see, if "grouping" or recordings has an effect, but same result. Anything else I can try or deliver? In case debugging on my system is faster, we can also do it quickly, but in 20 minutes I've to leave.

We'll leave it for today, I'll sleep on it

Thanks @Brownard and @ge2301 for your work
I had started implementing a basic listing of recordings via API, but I got not so far as I hoped (no time). Your approach does better integrate with MP2's media library.
I will go through the list of open issues and try to help, like moving settings to server side...

@ge2301 could you upload one of your recordings that doesn't play? Looks like you've got a small 1 min one that shouldn't be too big.
