Mozy 1 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Hi All, I am having trouble getting my media to stream to my iOS mobile app. I can see the library, and when I hit play I only get a black screen. I've reinstalled MBT, and the codecs it comes with. My files are primarily .mp4. Thanks to anyones ideas! Edited March 31, 2014 by Mozy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomk67 2 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 maybe you have the same problem as described in http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/6024-issue-with-ios-and-server/ i have exactly the same symptomes. greetings thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozy 1 Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Thanks for the link tomk67. I was wondering if my ffmpeg was the issue. Looks like there is no work around yet, and we have to wait for a fix? Is anyone else having streaming issues using mobile?

foghat 65 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Make sure whatever you are trying to play has a duration. If it says the duration is 0 minutes it will not play on the mobile app. You need to refresh the item(s) on the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozy 1 Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 Thanks for the reply foghat. I have durations across all files, seems something else is the problem. Any other ideas out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foghat 65 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 You will probably need to post a log. Do the files play when you try from the Server (MBT has nothing to do with this)? When you try play from app: - does ffmpeg.exe launch on server (check task manager)? - on the server Dashboard does it show you are playing something from ios?

Tikuf 663 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 @@Mozy I posted a work around for tomk67 (check link tom posted) but without logs I don't know it it is the same issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darwindeeds 356 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Please share your logs. mp4 files should play without any issues. The only known issue that I'm aware of is with the dvd rip playback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikuf 663 Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) Its a localization error in the c/l Shiv Edited April 2, 2014 by Tikuf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
