ATAK: Invalid video information, cannot display

[sgofferj]

So far the app seems to work. I can view streams in a browser and via VLC. It also shows up as a camera icon with the angle and everything correctly displayed in ATAK-CIV 4.10.0.21. However, when I tap the camera icon on the map and then choose play I get a toast saying "Invalid video information, cannot display". I tried various codec combinations without success. My server is mediamtx.

Are you using OpenTAKServer or just MediaMTX?

[sgofferj]

I'm using the TAK server 4.10 from tak.gov

[sgofferj]

I'm using the official TAK server 4.10. If you wanna test with a live TAK server email me your email. I'll send you a certificate.

I sent you an email

What streaming protocol are you using? I checked out your server but I didn't see any open ports for any of the streaming protocols.

[sgofferj]

Ah, my mediamtx runs on a different domain. From outside, only rtps goes through but I tried also rtp from inside with the same result.

I think I found the issue. For reasons I've forgotten, when the stream starts, OpenTAK ICU makes an HTTP POST with the video info to the TAK server on port 8080. It is hard coded to use HTTP and port 8080. This should be changed to correctly use HTTP/8080 or HTTPS/8443 based on the server settings.

Until I have time to fix it the best thing to do is to manually add the feed in ATAK or WinTAK and upload it to the server.

I see. Thanks for checking. If the TAK server access is useful for you, I'll keep your cert active. Otherwise, I delete it.

[brian7704]

Thanks, I can troubleshoot using my TAK server so you can delete the certificate.
