Can you try e.g. 2.6.22.6 kernel? The kernel you are using is becoming quite outdated.


I always forget something ;-)

2.6.19.7 on Debian Etch distribution.

Hi Javier,

what kernel version are you running?

Hello everybody,

I've been testing video streaming with hipl and I've got good and bad news.

** Streming over TCP/HTTP: on the server side we start a listener on port 8080 for all interfaces. We could start the listener just for one HIT, but vlc seems to have a bug here and it doesn't parse ipv6 and port parameters properly.

vlc -vvv <any avi video file> --ipv6 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8080}'

On the client:

vlc -vvv http://[<SERVER's HIT>]:8080

and streaming works nicely and it's even able to re-sync video playing after switching from LAN to LAN.


** Streaming over UDP/RTP: on the server we begin sending UDP packets to the client immediately after vlc starts

vlc -vvv <any avi video file> --ipv6 --sout '#std{access=rtp,mux=ts,dst=[<CLIENT's HIT>]:1234}'

And on the client:

vlc -vvv udp:

Unfortunately, the server gets completely freeze after two or three seconds with nothing to do but hard reset. I guess this problem is related with hipl because it doesn't arise with plain ipv6. However, I wouldn't be able to assure that since I haven't found a thing in kern.log and hipl logs seems normal.

Could anyone else try to reproduce this problem ?

Greetings.
