h.264/aac encoded video does not play video or audio when added to an IServerStream

[mondain]

From @GoogleCodeExporter on March 15, 2015 16:59

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. have handy an h.264/aac encoded video

2. create a SimplePlayItem via SimplePlayItem.build(...), and add it to a 
IServerStream object; make sure the IServerStream is started.

--code snippet--
mLiveStream = StreamUtils.createServerStream(mAppScope, "playlist1");
mLiveStream.addItem(SimplePlayItem.build("h264aacvideo.mp4", -2, -1 ));
//mLiveStream.setItem(1);
mLiveStream.start();
--

3. now, compile code, and start server & access 
rtmp://127.0.0.1/mywebapp/playlist1 using your favorite player

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output is the video should play, i should see the video & I should 
hear the audio

what happens instead is the video player reports as if it's playing back in 
that the time shows an increment of seconds however black screen, and no audio 
is heard.

now, if there are multiple mp4/aac videos added to this IServerStream playlist, 
the second video plays perfectly and the videos transition perfectly from then 
on. When setting the seek point of the first video to the end of the video for 
it to transition quickly to the next video. that also works.

also, VOD of these encode videos plays perfectly as well.
--
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
later versions 1.0RC, 1.0, & 1.01, & Ubuntu 12.04

the intended name of the video file is "h264aacvideo.flv", not 
"h264aacvideo.mp4", my apologies.

btw. my workaround was to add a 1 second video as the first video in the 
iserverstream playlist.

I recently did a demo with the playlist stuff and I recall it being tricky and 
also exposed a bug in the playback (which should be fixed in 1.0+). I'll look 
for the source and post an example here.

mondain, any updates? This seems like something that should work? I'm surprised 
not very many people are having this problem.

I started on this and also looked at fixing the unit test, but have not gained 
a lot of ground as of yet. I think the reason that you don't see this reported 
as often as you'd expect is due to people creating their own play list 
implementations and not used the server-controlled version.

I really need solution for that. Is it possible to update priority for this 
problem?

any chance this will get fixed with the coming update to 1.0.2?

I think I have the same issue,

public void publishPlaylist() { serverStream = StreamUtils.createServerStream(scope, "testplaylist");

    String pelicula = "Avengers2.mp4";
    SimplePlayItem item = SimplePlayItem.build(pelicula);
    serverStream.addItem(item);

    serverStream.start();
    serverStream.setRewind(true);
    serverStream.setRepeat(true);
}

Avenger2.mp4 is set on the streams folder, I used the avengers2.mp4 from the examples. I added 2 videos and it jumps to the second one but I get no video or audio. serverStream.getCurrentItem() return the second Item always but it doesnt play anything. I am using 1.0.8-M3 and 1.0.8M12, maybe this works in another library?
