I thought video streaming would work out of the box, but boy was i wrong. Iam a donator and i would love to get this going. The only video format i cant get to play is .mp4 which im assuming jwplayer plays directly. Here is a copy of a couple of lines from the logfile.

If you look here:

c:\subsonic\transcode\

Is there a file named ffmpeg?

Looks like the ffmpeg transcoder is missing.

Just a guess...

I had ffmpeg.exe in a subfolder "c:\subsonic\transcode\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe" . I feel dumb.

You can both transcode mp4>flv or bypass the transcoding and play directly to JW Player.
