Media Browser Playback Error

Hi, I have just purchased Serviio Pro and would like to use the Media Browser feature, however I have so far been unsuccessful in getting it to work. The Error I receive when trying to is as follows

200, Steam not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound, clip: '[Clip] 'http://192.168.1.99:23424/cds/resource/791/MEDIA_ITEM/FLV-0/ORIGINAL,flv_player?authToken=0e3109a764e24d53b265ac3eced17983"

I get this error message on Windows and Ubuntu using both Chrome and Firefox.

I have had a look at some posts by other users and have found that an up to date version of ffmpeg, so I have found a tutorial (https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/Ubu ... ationGuide) and completed the steps on both the server and the client PCs, but it is still not working.

When looking in the serviio.log file I am seeing "Fatal Error in process starting: Cannot run program "ffmpeg": java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory" I am assuming this is part of if not the problem and would like some help fixing it.

I would really appreciate some help with this, Thanks
Joe

Re: Media Browser Playback Error

try to set ffmpeg.location system variable (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7743&p=55241&hilit=+ffmpeg+location+serviio.sh+#p55241) and point it to your ffmpeg location (this should be necessary only on Linux)

Re: Media Browser Playback Error

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I have looked at the link and other subsequent links but I am unable to work out where to put the ffmpeg system property or where the location of ffmpeg is, is it just the executable? do you have any idea where it would be?

What I've done is type ffmpeg./home/joe/ffmpeg as this is where a search found the executable, I've put it after $JAVA_OPTS at the end of the serviio.sh file.

Re: Media Browser Playback Error

you need something like

  Code:
-Dffmpeg.location=/home/joe/ffmpeg


and add it where the other -D parameters are

Re: Media Browser Playback Error

Great that works, thanks!

One more question, what kind of upload would you need to stream a 1500kbps file from a remote location?
