Audio only streams? - Githubissues

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

I'm using XBMC Frodo iwth XOT-Uzg 3.3.2 on my Raspberry Pi (so it's Linux XBMC 
I'm working with), and I've found that with numerous streams, like 101tv or 
Cultura 24 (from Nederland24) only audio gets streamed and no video. 
Uitzendinggemist does work fine on the other hand... Is this something that can 
be fixed in my case or is it a general problem with the aforementioned streams?

What XBMC version are you running on your Pi? I will check mine today.

Frodo Beta 1, but since other streams work fine, I think it has something to do 
with the streams themselves not working properly.

Can it have something to do with the fact that the Pi does not have codecs for 
decoding MPEG-2 and VC-1? Just something I thought of...

I just purchased both codecs and will test later.

Do you have any examples of episodes that play audio only?

Original comment by basrie...@gmail.com on 29 Jan 2013 at 3:22

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

There are no specific episodes that don't display video, Uitzendinggemist works 
a treat (thank you for that!), so do the RTL XL episodes. I have only stumbled 
upon this issue when trying to play live streams, such as the channels from 
Nederland24. It has something to do with them being live streams instead of 
"missed" episodes that are streamed differently.

me having the same problem, think it's has nothing todo with the mpeg/vc codecs.
the codecs used are:
- nederland24: wmav2 and wmv3
- missed episodes: aac and h264

Is there anybody that has the bought the codecs for the Pi and has time to 
double check? My rPi is in the bedroom, which is occupied by my 6 week old 
daughter and wife most of the time. So it's a bit difficult to test.

I have the same problem, Sveriges Television (SVT.se) works just fine but 
episodes from TV6.se or TV3.se play with audio only.

it is a codec problem. If somebody spends 2 EUR on the license, we will know if 
it works.

I just checked here on my Pi (it was abandoned for a moment) and I have audio 
and video on the Journaal 24 and Politiek 24 channels.....It just crashes 
Raspbmc if you stop the streams (again, not an XOT-Uzg.v3 issue). 

I have bought both codec licenses available for the the Pi. So if somebody that 
has video of the channels be willing to buy the licenses so we can double 
check?

I have a similar issue when using the Dumpert channel (dutch) on the Raspberry 
Pi.
Audio will play but no video. I see that it is likely a codec issue and I am 
willing to spend 2 euro to see if that does the trick but I have no idea how :)

I have now tried tv6play with the codecs and its still only audio no video.

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Really strange. What version of XBMC are you using on rPi? OpenElec/Raspbmc? 
and what versions of these two?

Original comment by basrie...@gmail.com on 15 Apr 2013 at 8:14

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

If you are asking me I am using the latest raspbmc (auto update).
When I start for  tv6play (svtplay works fine though) I see a static picture 
and can hear only audio, if I maximize the screen i get a black screen only.

please tell me what streams you are trying to use?

Is this still an issue?

Original comment by basrie...@gmail.com on 29 Jun 2013 at 7:57

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

yes, this is still happening. the add-on dumpert still gifs only audio (i have 
de codecs and can watch the dutch channels, but not alle videos).

I already asked for examples. Without them, I cannot try to fix it.

Trying to view a Dumpert stream 
(http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:Dumpert 
https://code.google.com/p/dumpertxbmc/) on my raspberry pi (XBian 1.0 Beta 1.1) 
I also get NO video, only audio.

Stream seems to be Flash Video (FLV1)

I need a full debug uzg(plugin).log. You can set the level from the XOT-Uzg.v3 
Addon settings.

getting my raspi in a couple of days and was looking into what to expect. I 
guess it has something to do with codecs, but i also ran into this similar 
problem:

http://www.erikdevries.com/hardware/de-installatie-van-xbmc-op-een-raspberry-pi/

Its in dutch ;)

solution for black screen, no audio might be editting /boot/config.txt. Change 
the value “gpu_mem=100″ to something higher, probably “gpu_mem=128″. 

================================================================================
==
"Hoewel 99% van alle films die ik afspeel zonder problemen werken liep ik in 
een aantal gevallen tegen het probleem dat enkel geluid werd afgespeeld, het 
beeld blijft zwart. Nadat ik via e-mail een vraag binnen kreeg van iemand met 
dit zelfde probleem ben ik hier verder ingedoken. Na het openen van de logfiles 
van XBMC kwam ik al snel achter de oorzaak, de Raspberry had niet genoeg 
geheugen om deze video af te spelen, de volgende regel stond in de logfile:

COMXCoreComponent::DecoderEventHandler OMX.broadcom.video_decode – 
OMX_ErrorInsufficientResources, insufficient resources

Na enig speurwerk op internet kwam ik achter de mogelijke oplossing, namelijk 
meer geheugen toekennen aan de GPU (de videochip). Dit bleek inderdaad te 
werken, wie weet lost dit ook jouw problemen op. Je past dit als volgt aan:

    Log via SSH in op de Raspberry Pi (standaard is de gebruikersnaam “pi” en het wachtwoord “raspberry”)
    Open /boot/config.txt in bijvoorbeeld vi of nano: sudo nano /boot/config.txt
    Pas de regel “gpu_mem=100″ aan naar “gpu_mem=128″ en sla de wijzigingen op
    Reboot de Raspberry Pi en probeer of de video nu correct werkt."

That sounds promising. Could somebody verify this fix? I do not have this issue 
myself so I cannot verify it.

Audio only streams? #406
