Yes, it's unreal

Hi, my needs are to show the video stream of the baby's room on LG TV, I've searched a lot for an RTSP player without success, there are lot of limitations on LG webos, unfortunately, but I succeed using a PC with Serviio and the native browser of the TV, it works but plays vide with about 20 seconds of delay. I don't now how to reduce this buffering, in this way I can't promptly go to him before he commits something dangerous, there is anything I can do to reduce buffering? Any news out about a player which supports RTSP? (like VLC). Than you

Hi mate, I had success! PLease read that topic, the solution it's written there. Maybe you are interesting to to stop reencoding the video to mp2 and visualize the direct stream from rtsp. Have good day

The DVR is from Dahua.. I'll let you know as soon I'll test it )

Hi mate, if the argument appasionate you, you may read what we discussed here: https://forum.serviio.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=30290&p=135031#p135031

Thanks miniDLNA is for Linux, I?m looking for something for Windows to put in a local PC, if possible. Seems difficult to find one like this, there are many options and most of them will not suite, it's a lot of time to search and test. Mayba a combination of ffmpeg and something elase will do the job. The same for LG apps, it's getting mad to test them all, I'm not going more to put myself in such situation. I'ts really bad there isn't any popular/known app like VLC there and, as well, be sure LG won't change its politics on the next update of WebOS. No chances for external devices via HDMI I hope to report it here

I don't believe the dvr has this function, anyway this can be overcome by a ffmpeg session, this is easy to achieve. I'm thinking if ffmpeg is able itself to annunce to DLNA devices, I don't believe so, I think the DLNA is managed by code like Serviio, which uses ffmpeg to transcode and manage video/audio streams. If I can do everything with ffmpeg I believe I can fly, becuase I can find my way myself.. So I have to give a chance to Serviio, converting before the RTSP to a multicast UDP. Anyway, having a WiFi means all the packets will be forwarded to all ethernet segment, and in this place the ethernet is tunneled to the main office with a VLAN bridge of 10 megabit only, I'm risking to saturate it PS: I haven't found yet a way to stream by ffmpeg on TCP, listeneing to a port for a client like VLC, in all test I did ffmper is trying connect to a listening port to push there the stream.. amazing

Now I read better, thanks for posting the video. But how to activate multicast? Should it be from the side of DVR? I don't think so, I think it should be told to Serviio to use it as output, how? None of the settings talking aboit that. Please tell me how to do it. Unfortunately I'm not more in front of PC, also today I've wasted an half day to solve thsi problem, amazing. I've tried Universal Media Server too, direct stream doesn't work, only trancode sith VLC, VLC Legacy and Mencoder is able to be accepted from tv and from VLC, stream bandwith out appears, but the LG screen keeps black. No luck (

Seviio rencodes stream with MPG1| Have you aviced it? Amazing.. a stream of 150kb/s bocomes 2mb! I'm trying with Universal Media Server, stream copy doesn't work probably because it pass directly the rtsp url and TV refuses to connect, it sends with higher bitrate, the tv opens it but display black screen I've noticed you have glitches on you video, probably because you have too high bitrate as well

Hi mate, works with my laptop, anyway bad, even if I unselect trancode I have at output a stream of 20 megabit an high usage of CPU (ffmpeg), as result the video on tv is really messy. I'm looking for a way to copy out the same stream input, it's a bit unbelievable there isn't this option for a standard stream. I've a 1080p 25fps mp4 standard source without audio, the most standard one, no need to transode. I've tried simple DLNA but it doesn't support stream

I've disabled it altready on the first configuration. I've looked at the logs and enabled the debug log, unfortunataley there are so many responsive DLNA devices in this LAN that Serviio fill up the log making it difficult to read. Anyway I haven't read errors there, it's very strange. I'm a bit tired to loose time for a thing that shpudl be so simple, showing an rtsp stream, the next step is to go there, and try with my laptop sitting in that LAN, I really hope it's possible, if not I've to search and learn another DLNA server. Amazing the life is sometime

It doesn't work, I've also changed to h264 but it didn't help, I've tried to create a user and assign the connection and the rtsp souce to that user, no way This program looks simple, but it isn't

Thanks again for your help, I got what you mean, I undestood it, all is already configured fine, and presentation is made as you say.. video> display content only and online > display content only, all the rest is diasbled. As result I can see the samples pictures (??) even if I've disabled pictures in all menues and I can't see the rtsp, it writes "no files exist" on black screen. It looks the server works out of control, ignoring the settings (only start/stop server has affect) Rstp is tested and working in the same server with VLC, it's a 1080p h265, I guess latest LG TV that cost 2500€ may accept it too ) I suppose I've to go there myself checking, and how the things look I can't do much more, I'm sad to say that was not easy as expected (

Thank you my friend, you rieally kind helping me. Today I've remotely accessed a 24/7 server and there I've installed Serviio, following your guide I've connected the video rtsp source and tested it, then blocked all the presentations as you showed in the picture. Serviio is able to detect different devices in the network, TV and so on, and testing it sucessfully, now on one TV I can see Serviio as a source in the list, all good till here. But when I enter it says "file not found", I can't see the stream anywhere surfing between buttons/menus available, but I can see examples with pictures and videos. Then I disabled in Serviio anything possibile, especially on audio and pictures, and restarted again, no differences. I'm sure it's my Serviio because if I stop it it will disappear also on TV. Strange, really strange, do you have suggesions? Honestly I asked a guy there tohelp me and I followed all by video call, I was thinking it was easy but I suppose I've to go there to go deeper. I hope to solve, but at first impact I'm a bit disappointed 😕 maybe on this server there is kind of block for connections, I'll check better What will happen after shareware 14days finishes? May I keep it use only for one camera? (without trascoding) Thank you

Thanks, I hope to test it soon, what you mean with "If going down this path the only thing I wish is knew before is to remove all content listing apart from “online” and reduce nesting" going down this path means the use of Serviio is not working, or it means that the camera stream will go down? What do you mean with the content listing? In which part of Serviio is contained? So I have to remove all extept the voice “online” and "reduce nesting"? Thanks
