Luke 37176 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hi Sorry to say same issue for me. Set to auto bitrate or 144 makes no difference. Cas and it works fine inside your home network? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAS 1 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 and it works fine inside your home network? Hi Luke Yes works perfectly on any wifi network. Home or away. Just get the error on data network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37176 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 I'll be setting up the external testing program this weekend so if you'd like to get access to test builds, please PM me your itunes email address. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAS 1 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 An Update a quick test on a few different formats. All play over wifi, following results on Data (4g) I have limited choice of file types but here goes. Xvid (mpeg4) - Avi = Video error H264 - MP4 = Plays perfectly H264 - MKV = Video Error H264 - M4V = Plays perfectly Weird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deihmos 147 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Why not try a clean install of the server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0dyr0ck2006 57 Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 Just as an update to this issue; I've done the standard delete and reinstall of the iOS app but that didn't make any difference. Removing the device from the server and reconnecting doesnt seem to change the outcome. I've tested it both on an iPhone 6S 128gb and iPad Air 2 32gb. Remotely on uk 4G (the equivalent to your LTE) and it just won't stream regardless of settings but on wifi at home it's fine. I tested it on a remote wifi today and it streamed as it should. Ive tested this on 'Auto' Stream rate as suggested and pretty much every setting down to 144p.Deleting and reinstalling the server doesnt change the outcome.I'm running iOS 9.1 on all my devices: iPhone 6S 128gb, iPad Air 2 128gb and iPad mini 4 16gbServer Version: 3.0.5781.2Windows 7 64bit ProffesionalI have a 42mbps download connection and 12mbps upload rateIve checked all virus/firewalls including those in the router and ensured that all ports are forwarded and visible by the usual ip checking sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37176 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 and by fine at home you mean same exact videos? can you try this for a test - in app settings, specify a custom bitrate instead of auto. then perform the test both ways, wifi and 4g. this way it will be the exact same video, exact same encoding parameters. curious to see the result. thanks.

Luke 37176 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Ok. when you hit play we pass the url to the video player. I will need to look into if there's a reason the video player might reject external url's under certain conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediacowboy 438 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Luke, to add to the weirdness I m able to stream one of the movies and one of the episodes just fine here in the USA.

Luke 37176 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 i think it's something on the device and not server related. Probably something we need to adjust something for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0dyr0ck2006 57 Posted November 23, 2015 Author Share Posted November 23, 2015 The server is generally working fine (if not using a fair bit of ram but that's another thread), the fact that others seem to be pulling my files ok points to something wrong with my devices. But being Apple they are locked down unless I use a third party program to access the system files. As I said to mediacowboy, does the app create its own error logs that I could find and post?

mini__me 23 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) I'm also still having this issue with being unable to play some files over 3G/4G but all working fine on WiFi. Server Version 3.0.5781.5 App Version 1.03 http://pastebin.com/QuTunBtQ Edit: Looks like the files that are ok can be direct streamed: Gotham 2x11 in this case, and transcoded files fail Mad Max : Fury Road in this case. For reference I tried to play back Mad Max twice in this instance in case you see double. Edited December 9, 2015 by mini__me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0dyr0ck2006 57 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Well this issue is still at large. On remote (3G/4G) playback I can't stream any files regardless of container. I'm running iOS beta 1.0.7(3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b0dyr0ck2006 57 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yes it is running on port 8096 plain http. All other users can connect to my server remotely fine. Be it via mobile device, web or one of the various apps. None of my mobile devices will playback at all. I have even tried the standard delete and reinstall of everything app and server. I've tried creating a new user and login in with that. The web access doesn't work for me but for any other users trying to connect it's fine. The only time I can get anything to playback is when I'm connected to wifi, be it at home or remotely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
