optimalt 10 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 That is really too bad [emoji20]Trying to follow.. [emoji14]Does this mean that it's likley that people (in countries where there is no HDHomerun) will not be able to watch football games or the upcoming olympics in high quality in ET AND stream to an iphone? Even though both works with different boxes ticked? Skickat från min SM-G920F via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jds828 24 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 @pünktchen Just noticed something this morning. My guide was showing the wrong channel order so I checked the plugin. When I first opened the plugin it had the spinning circle and not showing the red or green writing to say it was connected to MPExtended. As soon as I clicked save and test, the circle went away and the green "Connected" came up. When I checked the channel group it had defaulted to the first group in MP (Entertainment) I had to set it back to the group I made and run the EPG updater in Emby. The physical server or Emby server hadn't restarted and the TV was working Ok, Let me know if you want any logs and I'll send them over to you. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly not a big issue or causing playback problems. Just wanted to let you know any issues as I see them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37050 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 iOS does not have the same format support as Emby Theater so it's a little different. There are a lot of factors that affect whether it will direct play such as bandwidth and network connection, bitrate, etc. The point is the plugins expose the stream so that it can be direct played if all of the requirements line up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know dvb and server wmc support thatThe problem is, if i deliver mediainfo (that's needed for direct play and is working fine in Android and Theater) the iOS app refuses to play the transcoded stream, but it works in Chrome.

I thought something has changed in regard to transcoding, but maybe i'm wrong...Btw. 0 doesn't disable mediainfo anymore (that was only in the test version here), it's "enable direct playback" and "enable direct streaming" - without that no mediainfo.

jds828 24 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Ok, I just took it off as Android Mobile also stopped working. Problem now is the backup of my server auto updates to the test plugin, Can that be turned off? Thanks EDIT: Forget the above. Back on beta server with latest plugin and all working again.

jds828 24 Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Got the same results unfortunatly. Except Android is working for me. Thank you for your hard work trying to solve this pünktchen! I forgot to mention that I only use Android Mobile over 4G/LTE. The main reason for this is that I don't use my phone at home for watching media but I do use it when I'm out and about. I was having another look at the IOS app. When I use anything other than 0 in the timer the seek bar in the video shows. By the looks of it, what you set is the time you get. 1500 gives 1.5 seconds of video then it stops, 3000 gives 3 seconds. you'd think that zero would show no video. Does this give any clues to playback issues? The latest version of the plugin seems to be holding the channel group now and the spinning circle has gone from the plugin settings page.

Does this give any clues to playback issues? The "delay" is really just a pause in the code before the stream gets analyzed. Otherwise mediainfo sometimes returns false or empty values...
