Killervette 5 Posted February 6, 2015 Author Posted February 6, 2015 Just tried with Kodi and none of the channels seem to work via DLNA, can you make any one of them load? I'm beginning to think there may be a more general problem with DLNA and channels. Gonna try another client to make sure. Ok, let me know if I should do something
hamstercat 63 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 I tried again with a DLNA client for iOS and it was working, so I'm guessing it's something with your particular install or hardware. I don't know much about DLNA, but I'm sure some people in this forum could help you if you ask in the DLNA sub-forum. On another note, BallStreams is coming! I won't be able to test it for now, but a lot will be reused between the two channels so it should be easier.

Deihmos 169 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 This is great. I don't use hockeystream but I am waiting for ballstreams. You should post this on the hockstream website so they can publish it as an available client.
hamstercat 63 Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Yep, I'm hoping they feature it like the one for Kodi, Plex, etc. In the meantime I uploaded a dev release of BallStreams. It's very untested (no subscription so I couldn't event login), but everything is based off on the HockeyStreams channel. If you could try it and tell me if there's any obvious errors or crash that'd be great!
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 It should be in the catalog, I uploaded it as a dev release.
Deihmos 169 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Logging on isn't working. What should I provide?
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I'll upload it to Google Drive when I get home in about 30 minutes and post the link here, maybe I missed a step in the uploading.
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I found it on my server, it's in the plugin catalog. It should be the first one as shown here:
Deihmos 169 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I already installed it but unable to logon.
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Ho my bad, I misunderstood. If you see an error message when trying to log send me that, and also the server log.
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I may have found the problem, I uploaded a new version. Can you try it? If it still doesn't work I'll look at your server log.
Deihmos 169 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 There is no error just spinning circle. Here is the log. http://pastebin.com/YDnMWLqc
Deihmos 169 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) It now works and works great in WMC. The on Demand folder is empty and there is a folder with the name Condensed that has the On Demand. How does it select the server region? Maybe you can add those settings eventually. This should attract some users. Edited February 11, 2015 by Deihmos
hamstercat 63 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Woot! That's a good starting point I'll have a look at on demand tomorrow.
Killervette 5 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 I am still trying to get my dlna working correctly. What video file type is the stream for live tv? I want to make sure my dlna profile has it listed.
Luke 42077 Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 It doesn't matter because the server is converting as necessary for the device, based on the options set in the dlna profile.
Killervette 5 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 It doesn't matter because the server is converting as necessary for the device, based on the options set in the dlna profile. Well, I always get a internal server error 500 when I try to play any channel content like hockey streams or trailers
Killervette 5 Posted February 12, 2015 Author Posted February 12, 2015 Also, same results on a Xbox one
hamstercat 63 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Can you also add the true live stream? Yeah sure, I remember seeing that in their API. I'll add that whenever I can. I want to group all different types of feed under a single "folder" so there are less redundant matches in the view, I'll add that at the same time. Well, I always get a internal server error 500 when I try to play any channel content like hockey streams or trailers From what I'm understanding, it can be either your server installation or the DLNA profile. Has Luke has said, the server should transcode if the profile says it doesn't support the type of stream. For the record, if I remember well HockeyStreams returns mostly unecrypted HLS streams.
Killervette 5 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Posted February 14, 2015 If I was going to make a transcode profile for the stream, what would the video/audio codec and container be? I can add hls as the protocol, but I need the other two
hamstercat 63 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I won't have access to my computer for a couple of days, but when I do I'll check it up and reply here.
Killervette 5 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Posted February 14, 2015 Also, if it makes a difference I enabled transcode logging and no log is created when trying to play the video. So I assume it is trying to direct play. Therefore the dlna profile must have a setting for whatever type of video stream this is. If I can figure out what type of video it is, maybe I can modify the profile to ensure it transcodes it.
