Media Browser will not stream any files

I just recently upgraded to Serviio-1.0, which is fantastic I might add, but media browser is not functioning correctly. I have configured my firewalls to allow the port and I am able to login and view all my files, but not play. I get the error:
200,Stream not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound,clip '[Clip] 'https://*********************:23424/cds/resource/28/MEDIA_ITEMFLV-0/ORIGINAL,flv_player?authToken=30429315968046b0b00069978005d60d" I have tried changing my files permissions to 777 encase it was a permissions issue but that did not solve the problem. I have checked the error longs and the only thing that I found that looks somewhat related is:
2012-07-30 10:42:26,455 WARN [ServiioStatusService] IOException occured. Returning error code 500 to the REST layer. Message: Transcoded file '/tmp/Serviio/transcoding-temp-28-flv_player-ORIGINAL.stf' cannot be found, FFmpeg execution probably failed

Everything else is in regards to LibraryManager and not being able to read the metadata for a certain file. I was wondering if anyone else has come across this and knows the fix. Thanks.

couple of things -

1) try it again, then try to open the URL in a web browser or VLC player
2) if the above works, try to upgrade your Flash plugin or try a different browser

Thanks,
I tried using VLC >> streaming >> Network then pasting in http://*****************:23424/cds/reso ... 978005d60d (removed my hostname for security) but nothing happends it just sits there trying to load. VLC does not produce any errors. I tried using other computers and browsers to rule out my machine or flash player( both browsers and flash are up to date on all machines). Going to the link directly( using the one listed above) gives me:
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
- <result>
<httpCode>500</httpCode>
</result>

ok, can you enable detailed logging and try to open the URL again? then post the log here.

[will]

Unless you have installed a new version of ffmpeg over what your OS has, ffmpeg is too old and won't accept the commandline options being passed to it.

These are the logs files. I connected first through the media browser, then connected using the url directly in my browser,then I tried connecting through VLC streaming.

did you just use the previous URL? The authToken part is expired, you have to log in again into MediaBrowser, try to play a file an then use the new URL that is in the player window error message. You should see some FFmpeg command execution in the log then.

Yes, I had updated the Token. I have done it again and I found the line "Transcoded file '/tmp/Serviio/transcoding-temp-28-flv_player-ORIGINAL.stf' cannot be found, FFmpeg execution probably failed' which I am assuming is the cause of the problem. I do not know how to correct this problem though.

Ok, it looks like you have old FFmpeg. What is your OS? If Linux you might have to build FFmpeg from the sources on serviio.org/download (or see the wiki for details)

uname -a

I'm compiling ffmpeg from source from your website now.

I have upgraded ffmprg and lame and librtmp using the source code form the downloads page. I have restarted the server and it now displays this:

But the file still does not play in the media browser, web browser, or vlc. I have checked the logs and do not see anything mentioning the file like before.

[zip]

what do you get back when opening the URL in the browser, an error again ? If yes, there must be an error in the log (make sure you have detailed on)

I recompiled ffmpeg so now the version reads:

further up in the log you should see the FFmpeg command used. Find it and try to run it locally, then post the error

I have gone back through the logs and could not find the ffmpeg command. I did find this however: [AbstractTranscodingDeliveryEngine] A suitable transcoding job already exists, re-use it for client 'IPAddress=/66.36.227.200, Profile=Flash player'
So I went and tried a different file, and it worked fine. I tried lots of other files and they all worked. What I believe is happening is when I was testing it every time with the same file for continuity but it was trying to use the old transcoding job from when my ffmpeg wasn't correct. How can I delete any current/old transcoding jobs. I checked in /tmp/Serviio and nothing was there, yet the logs still say a suitable transcoding job exists and my config is using the default location for transcoding.

it keeps a trace of those in memory, so serviio restart should be enough

Ok, I'll restart the serviio sever. Thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.

I have another question, I know its off topic but I was wondering if you could help me quickly. I have the perferred quality for remote set to original and I see in the video in media browser that it lists the other play qualities, medium, low, original. I am unable to change them from this windows, unless I change it from the console. Is there a way I can enable changing of the quality through the media browser?

[zip]

yes, but you have to start playing it first - a bit rubbish, I agree, but that's what the Flowplayer plugin allows.

I know this is an old thread but I believe I have a similar problem to what's being mentioned here but with Windows.

Basically I've got a Linux VM running 0.62 just fine, I'll upgrade that when there's a new WebGUI so it's easy to control but I wanted to test the new Serviio because both the access control and more importantly the Media Browser sound great. I'll happily pay for these features, you've done a great job Zip on Serviio over the years.

But the problem. So I installed a clean Windows 7 x64 VM. The installer failed to put it's own Java on (Timeout on download) so I went to Oracle's site and put on the 64bit version of Java 6 Update 33. Serviio now installed fine.

Pointed it to a few test MKV files which are 1080p HD but only about 3 minutes in length. Set my password and logged into the MediaBrowser from another machine. It's really nice and slick so well done there Zip.

Play a video. Works fine on Medium which I left it on. Switch it to Low quality while playing, also works fine. Switch it to Original however and I get the same error that this thread is talking about. If I look in the Temp folder when switching between qualities I see the file name change. When going to Original it creates the ORIGINAL file but it's 256KB and never increases in size.

Trying it locally from the machine that Serviio is on makes no difference.

The log in debug reports...

As it's a clean Windows with just Serviio 1.0 installed it'll be using the ffmpeg supplied in the Windows installer so that should be fine. I'll give it a whirl with some other files to see if that makes a difference.

Any ideas though?

EDIT: OK tried it with an SD avi file and that seems to work fine in all 3 qualities. So it's got to be something to do with the MKV files and ffmpeg. What's the command that it runs so I can try it from the command line to see what the ffmpeg error is?
