Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)

[tripkip]

I'm trying to get the transcoding work via the web interface.
After seeing "Requesting stream for channel. Standby..." I see the text "Streaming Failed (transcoder exited)".

Are you getting a transcode .log file in C:\Users\Public\NPVR\web\temp?

Nothing in that folder.

Ok, reproduce the problem then zip and attach your log files and I'll take a look. (that snippet you posted above isn't enough)

Here you go.

If you run this command line from a command prompted, what error does it give you?

Code:

If you run VLC on that machine, and open http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=4, does it play?

Seems my acamd plugin is no longer working all of a sudden...
I can open an FTA using VLC. E.g. http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=1488
The FTA channel streams really well on the modern web interface (on Safari, hangs in FF)!

How can I investigate the acamd problems?

Try sub's command line again for FTA but use double quotes around the url ie. "http://127.0.0.1:8866/live?channel=1488&transcoder=25bdd75b-4fec-4919-b721-ca6cd3b91040"
