MVP Streaming Server received STOP message?

[UKGuest44]

Hello,

Having a bit of an odd problem to track down, but it seems to be a problem with GBPVR stopping the playback of a transcoded AVI file, although for what reason I am not sure (It certainly hadn't reached the end of the generated transcoded file - I was monitoring ffmpeg throughout the process, the transcode was adequately ahead of the playback position)

I've included the last bit of the log file, if that helps

Code:

If I set the file transcoding manually and play the generating mpeg file in exactly the same way GBPVR does it (Run the exact commandline GBPVR uses with ffmpeg, wait 5 seconds, and then play the generated mpg) there are no problems, so it seems to be something in the transcode handling which seems to have GBPVR telling the MVP to stop?

I'm not sure, just trying to guess from what happens, but I'd appreciate any ideas.

Thanks

Well, I seem to have found the problem, it it helps anyone else.

When I was trying to get a stubborn video to play, I removed the bitrate parameter of the ffmpeg command (the default -b 2400). With this gone, it allowed some to play, on other video files it had the odd occurence of the video randomly stopping.

As soon as I readded the -b 2400 the problem has disappeared
