Subsonic Forum

Hi all,
I posted in the primary DSub thread, but I was hoping to get a larger audience to help me out here.
I cannot, for the life of me, get video streaming to work.

I am running with Music Cabinet + Subsonic 4.7.
Subsonic is hosted on my Windows 7 64 Bit main PC (i5 Sandy Bridge), if this is relevant. Using the most up to date 32 bit ffmpeg from the official website.
I am trying to play my media on a Nexus 7, running the latest DSub. I click "Play External Stream" and try playing in both BSPlayer & MXPlayer, with identical results with both.

----------------------------------------

My transcoding settings are as follows:

Convert from: avi mpg mpeg mp4 m4v mkv mov wmv ogv divx m2ts
Convert to: mpegts
Step 1: ffmpeg -ss %o -i %s -async 1 -b %bk -s %wx%h -ar 44100 -ac 2 -v 0 -f flv -vcodec libx264 -preset superfast -threads 0 -

No step 2.

It works when I play it via the Subsonic webGUI (on my laptop), but when I try to play in Nexus 7, it just loads forever (I've waited for over 5 minutes).

---------------------------------

Additionally, I'd like to be able to stream my FLAC files and transcode using OGG, is this possible?

Thanks so much all!

For flac -> ogg, I was actually fiddling with this today. You will need oggenc in your transcode folder. I'm running linux here but I believe the switches are the same:

Code: Select all

flac -> ogg | oggenc --quiet --quality=5 -o - %s

No step two, oggenc will accept flac as an input. I've set quality to 5 but you can change it to up to 9, I believe?

Well, that's perfect!

I grabbed the 64 bit oggenc2 (does this make a difference) and it seems to be working great!
Thanks
