InvalidMediaFormatException: Unknown video file type

Hi Guys - Appreciate the help here. Youll have to bare with me as Im not hugely clued up in all this stuff. I have been using the StreamDesktop.bat for a number of years without fault to stream my desktop to tv. It recently stopped working for whatever reason (perhaps a firmware upgrade on the pvr). Ive updated to the latest version of Serviio but still got the same issue. Provided a snapshot of the log below if anyone could help it would be massively appreciated.

Running Serviio 1.4.1.2. Connecting to a Humax 1003s pvr.

what is the output of this?

  Code:

ffmpeg -i " http://192.168.1.4:8081"

Hi.

I'm trying to stream via Serviio the output of an IP Camera and the logs show the same error "Unknown video file type".

The ouput for ffmpeg with the url is the following:

I have so far recompiled ffmpeg to include libopenjpeg support, but still doesn't work. When I run vlc (or ffplay) with the URL it plays without problems. I have also deactivated metadata generation, just in case. I'm on serviio 1.7.1.1

Is there anything I'm missing?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure Serviio supports mpjpeg (or the late ffmpeg renamed it from a different value to this on). I will add it for 1.9

Hi.
Thank you for your answer.
Regards.
