Hi,

I'm not 100% sure but there are people using my other application for Windows Mobile (WMDR - see my signature) with VU+ Duo Twin and don't have any problems.

Since my code in AndroidDreamer is similar, I believe it should work. Try it and let me know.

It looks OK what you are doing. However, you did not mention which sout you selected. I am saying this since I noted on my HD2 running Desire HD that the options H264 would not work while MP4V and H263 did work.

Did you try all souts?

In this moment AndroidDreamer can't "pilot" the video-player to use but I used Streaming Media Player. I am not sure if vPlayer is such a good choice for watching a VLC-stream. VPlayer works well connecting directly to the Dreambox (without VLC and which will be supported in future version of AndroidDreamer) but it seems to have some slight problems with VLC-stream although I am not sure.

I have Desire HD with Android Revolution HD 1.7+DM7020 or DM600, vlc 1.1.5 with web interface, # from .hosts removed, I can connect to 127.0.0.1 with succes, when I select some channel, getting message ---Setting up VLC---Starting Streaming---the I get choice to use "Movies", "Streaming Media player" or "VPlayer". When I choose "Movies", I get message "Sorry, this video cannot be played", when I Choose "Streaming Media player" I get "Cannot play video...Unable to connect server", and with VPlayer just flashing out the black screen. Which player are You using?

When testing, please make sure to test all "souts" before reporting back. As I wrote in the instructions:

select SOUT (there are 4 options - MP4V and H263 should work on most devices. H264 depends on device)

Thanks for sharing it!

I've tried all diferent souts... Sometimes it says: cannot connect to server, sometimes media can't be played (never pending on wich souts Im using.. It's more like: hmm what shall I blame for not wanting to open this time? ) any ideas?

Let us check VLC on the PC. Stream a channel from your device (don't worry about the error-message. Just leave it for the time being).

in a browser on your PC, open this page:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/vlm.html

Let me know if you see any information shown on the page, in particular: Instance: playing (or pehaps stopped).

Instances:

* default: stopped (1) 0.00% 00:00:00/00:00:00

OK, that means the comunication with VLC works.

1) I already asked you, but are you using a "real" Android-device and not like me, an HTC HD2 running a Desire HD-built, which gives me often this problem due TCP-packages being lost?

2) normally "stopped" means that VLC executed all commands but was not able to open the source, in this case the Dreambox. Please verify that streaming works between PC and your Dreambox using WebIF or some other streaming program for Dreambox.

I got a genuine android device.... I can stream to the pc using dreamstream without any problems.... I can download an *.m3u file from my webinterface and then there's no problem opening this file and then watch the stream in vlc from my pc... (or just klick vlc button in the webinterface aint a problem either... )

Weird:

1) Are you testing normal SD-channels as well (not only HD-channels)?
2) start streaming again, go to the VLC-page on your PC mentioned in an earlier posted by me. At the top of the page, there is a button called "Other" - click it and a new page opens up. In this page click "Export VLM commands". A new page opens up. Copy and paste the contents into a PM with the information and send it to me.
