fair enough, I ended up copying player.swf to the same folder as index.php (as opposed to jwplayer where it was) and now the box pops up along with the quality monitor display, but no video. clicking on the play arrow just ends up with an ajax circle going round and round indefinitely. confirmed again I was able to access the ‘playlistfile’ value directly by putting it into the address bar.
Now I’m really losing it. When I look at the stream in the streammanager, my NGRPs are no longer listed. furthermore, the request for the RSS returns:
WARN server comment - HTTPProviderMediaList.onHTTPRequest: MediaList not found:
I really have no clue why the NGRPs aren’t listed like they used to be.
Sorry… after using VLC to investigate further, I realized that my origin server wasn’t functioning properly, therefore the Edge was messing up. Now I brought everything back up and I do see the NGRPs in the stream manager of the transcoder/edge server and the RSS is being generated again.
So now it appears to be working fine (the problem was upstream so to speak). I can’t tell you why I’m using stream manager to start the streams, but they don’t start on their own and I haven’t gotten to the point where I’m interested in figuring that out, but I will have to.
Now my remaining issue is incorporating mobile devices into it. I guess the RSS is strictly for flash devices, so I need to incorporate a fallback for HLS/HTML5 for the iOS devices. On that token, is there any way on the iOS device to tell what the bitrate is?
Thanks for the help so far, sorry I’m most of the problem.
I wanted to add my issue in this topic instead of openning a new one .
I am having trouble with wowza transcoder and jwplayer rss playlist.
Always saying , Playlist could not be loaded : No playable sources found.
Here is my embed code for jw player :
Any help would be great.
Onur.
With changing the playlistfile error becomes : Error loading player : No playable sources found .
In that example they use playlistfile for vod . I am trying to play live stream with transcoder.
Yes , in my code there is no blank . when i remove blank the smile appears with “:o”
I have replaced my code with :
<head>
<script src='http://s4.tilda.com.tr:8080/jwplayer/jwplayer.js'></script>
</head>
<div id='playerdiv'>Loading video player…</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer( "playerdiv" ).setup( {
playlist: [{
image: "/images/test.jpg",
sources: [{
file : "http://s4.tilda.com.tr:80/live/ngrp:onur_all/jwplayer.rss"
}]
}],
primary: "flash",
controls: true,
width: "854",
height: "480"
});
</script>
Still having errors.
To make things clear , if i see "
http://s4.tilda.com.tr:80/live/ngrp:onur_all/jwplayer.rss
" within my browser or any text editor with my 3 streams that produced from transcoder addon , the wowza configurations are true , Right ?
Maybe my crossdomain.xml causes that error ?
Hi Richard ,
As you have mentioned, i switch to vod version (which i dont willing to do so , because i stream live applications , every time i change the stream i have to edit smil file. Its not the most efficient way i think. )
Here is my embed code :
<head>
<script src='http://s4.tilda.com.tr:8080/jwplayer/jwplayer.js'></script>
</head>
<div id='playerdiv'>Loading video player…</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer( "playerdiv" ).setup( {
playlist: [{ file : "http://s4.tilda.com.tr:80/vod/smil:onur.smil/jwplayer.smil" }],
primary: "flash",
controls: true,
width: "854",
height: "480"
});
</script>
and my smil file is directly created from
http://s4.tilda.com.tr/medialist?streamname=ngrp:onur_all&application=live&format=smil
Now the error is manifest not found or invalid .
Does the error whether my smil file format or jw player’s and wowza’s crossdomain.xml ?
I have both crossdomain.xml within the server that invokes jwplayer.js and wowza/conf/crossdomain.xml.
I am a bit confused
Thanks,
Onur.
Btw , I did not upgrade wowza yet. Maybe the error causes because of that. Let me upgrade wowza first.
Sorry for lots of reply ,
The error still remains
Hi ,
Yes i copy all necessary files from old to new.
Now i modified my code to this :
<head>
<script src='http://s4.tilda.com.tr:8080/jwplayer/jwplayer.js'></script>
</head>
<div id='playerdiv'>Loading video player…</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer( "playerdiv" ).setup( {
file: "http://s4.tilda.com.tr:80/medialist?streamname=onur&application=live&format=smil",
type: "rtmp",
primary: "flash",
controls: true,
width: "854",
height: "480"
});
</script>
Now my error becomes Error loading stream : ID not found on server
I will do the reverting.
But my main question is , any chance to generate smil automatically, instead of placing content folder. ? Because when i change stream name within wirecast FME i have to edit smil file with new streamname.
Am i Right ?
That is bad for me . When i changed my stream name i have to change smil file .
Anyway , i change to vod smil file located in my content folder.
Now the error is manifest .
Can you look at in the site ?
I copied and pasted. And made necessary changes.
Still the same. I believe i am missing a tiny part of that .
jwplayer.smil is for jw6 i guess.
I am using with jw6 . Now my player gives id not found.
Btw my qualities can be seen on player’s HD button. yay. it is a big step
Sadly ,
I have installed freshly . I only did these changes ,
mkdir applications/live (in order to connect with wire cast)
mkdir conf/live
cp conf/Application.xml live
Edit Application.xml change streamtype to live.
copy onur.smil into content file.
And make changes on transcoder/transrate.xml in order to generate transcoded streams…
Still same error.
I am working on 1935 port.
I will try work with jw5 .
I bring the case in a good phase i think.
With jw5 it says stream not found but i know there is. Can you say my wrong point. ?
Yes i was using rss one.
But in jw5 i was not able to select quality.
Is there a skin for that ?
Actually i could not able to make work
Says stream not found. And with jw6 id not found.
Soundslike my smil file or stream is the problem. They say we dont support redirected streams. Does wirecast stream to wowza in redirect way ? other words, when i use wirecast to generate stream, is it a redirect stream ?
Onur.
