Re: AW: [Updated 30 Dec!] MPExtended WebMediaPortal 0.4.1

Same here. Everything is working from within my network, but no access from outside.
The logs from my router show the packets for port 8080 being forwarded to the host running MPextend, but I never get a response. No errors in the mpextend logs.
Any ideas?

You have to configure the domain/IP you use it on in the C:\ProgramData\MPExtended\WebMediaPortalHosting.xml configuration file. Sadly it's not possible to automatically do that yet.

I also found that iis express does not allow external connections by default. Had to make a change to it's config file "applicationhost.config" located at "C:\Users\jowens\Documents\IISExpress\config"

I had to remove localhost from the following entry:
<bindings>
<binding protocol="http" bindingInformation=":8080:localhost" />
</bindings>

External access is working now.

Thanks

Jeff

I too have the same problem. I've configured my domain in WebMediaPortalHosting.xml (and also moved to port 80), but don't have a C:\Users\xxxx\Documents\IISExpress\ folder.
I do have a copy of applicationhost.config in the IIS install directory (c:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express\AppServer\) but changing the binding to either :80, :8080, or :80:mydomain doesn't provide me with external access.
Any ideas?

Update: Just checked the logs, seems that a temporary IIS config file is created which contains all of the bindings configured within WebMediaPortalHosting.xml so seems like there's not really a need for me to go editing the IIS config.
Great work BTW, this is looking great so far!

Thanks,
Stefan

File location may differance of win7 to xp, I'm on 7.
I had to leave the iis express config set at 8080, also leave the front and back colons :8080: then
change the port and set your domain in WebMediaPortalHosting.xml
I also had to restart iisxepress. (start a cmd window as admin. cd into the iisexpress install dir and run iisexpress.exe with no parameters. You should see a couple of messages but no errors. Close the window and you should be ready to go.)

I doubt that that works, but I'll check it. Would be nice if I could enable external access this way.
EDIT: That actually works. Thanks!

thank you now it is working..... but i can't find where i can activate il tv streaming, i've found just for tv recorded ......

where should it be located ?

thank you

Click on the channel name in the TV guide.

I did not find a solution for this. However, the VLC plugin isn't compatible with any of my modern browsers. (at least not that I've found) So I haven't been able to test the VLC streaming aspect.

Can you send me your logs please? Thanks!

Millions of logs will blot out the sun!

Your last try (from 5 january 13:30) failed because of a NoVideoAudioDetected error, which is the fault of the TV server, not of WebMP. The other errors look like an timeout, which I'll look into.

Hmm, that's odd because I can open the stream in vlc (If I copy the link and paste it into the "open network stream" option). Did the card just fail to initialize? :/

Well I got the VLC plugin working, too bad its too big for my layout. So I'll have to figure that out. However, upon pressing stop in the vlc player. I notice the server continues to time shift for several minutes :/.

For some reason it takes about a minute to setup streaming, and I think that's too long for the built-in Flash player. It's strange though as it shouldn't take so long (it's just a few lines of code).

We can resize the player quite easily.

Yeah, I have to make the time before a stream is killed a bit shorter.

Re: [Updated 30 Dec!] MPExtended WebMediaPortal 0.4.1

Hi,

I have exact the same issue, Win7x64 here, installed the full file ASP.NET MVC3 and using the built in IIS, can I be of help to trace this ? Or did you find the issue already ? Same resolution to get past by copying the folder, and not being able to save the settings. Additionally i Seem not to be able to stream anything (even Transcoding seem to start on the server. I am not sure if this is related.

Yeah, I think I found a solution for this. Can you try replacing C:\Program Files (x86)\MPExtended\WebMediaPortal\www\bin\MPExtended.Libraries.General.dll with the attached version? If not, please export your logs from the configurator and send them to me.

The new dll fixes the login but not the saving.

Probably a lot shorter, this makes it damn near impossible to change channels right now. :/

Re: [Updated 30 Dec!] MPExtended WebMediaPortal 0.4.1

I finally got the Live TV Streaming to work on my LAN. The problem was that I had to use VLC plugin (on firefox) and choose "Direct". The problem when using Flash HQ and LQ was that I saw the TV picture for only a couple of seconds than it stopped.

I also had my firewall turned off on my server (Win 7 Ultimate 32)

Looking good but difficult to change channels (takes time).

Great work looking forward to be able to watch TV form outside my LAN, any timescheduel for this?
