Ubuntu Multimedia :: VLC Stream At Startup In Case Of PC Reboot?
Jul 7, 2011
I've got Xubuntu 11.04, VLC 1.1.9. I'm working on some kind of streaming server and I would like to start VLC stream at startup in case of PC reboot (for instance after blackout).
I've made script to do that and append that script to init.d and use upadate-rc.d. VLC don't work correctly because of some network issue (host unreachable, cannot make raw udp socket) but network and all its parts work correctly (for sure!!).

Kernel 2.6, Slackware 12.0
mkisofs 2.01
I do 'mkisofs -iso-level 1 -o image John Smith.txt'. Only an example. When I mount image, ls outputs john_smi.txt. So it has shorten to 8.3 and translated ' ' into '_'. This is in accordance with the manual, although it doesn't say the conversion will be done.
Quote:
-iso-level level
.........................
With all iso9660 levels from 1..3, all filenames are restricted to upper case letters, numbers and the underscore (_).
...........................
However, as it did not reject the file name, it should have converted it to all upper case, it seems to me. And -iso-level 2|3 does the same thing.
Code:
root@darkstar:~# mkisofs -iso-level 1 -o image John Smith.txt
Total translation table size: 0
Total rockridge attributes bytes: 0
Total directory bytes: 0

using ubuntu 10.4, have set a custom command to open my browser to a page using the following in System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
Code:
chromuim-browser -kiosk http://wallboard
this works, but only for the next restart, any subsequent restart, and this 'application' has vanished from the list...
how do i add this 'application' as a persistent entry, not just for the next restart.

I have set up a script in /etc/rc2.d to start up on reboot. The script needs to run on reboot using ID: abcdef. I placed an su - abcdef on top of the script and it didn't work. I tried the script manually running the script using root and my ID switched from root to abcdef and the script never ran. I am using Redhat 5.5

For some reason my disc I burned for ubuntu desktop 10.10 freezes when I get to the ubuntu logo with the 5 dots. I am able to install ubuntu server just fine.
I tried to install desktop on top of server using sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop and then whenever I reboot it freezes during startup.
I think it might be my swap partition. I recall seeing a blip of an error talking about "press C to skip or M to start maintenence" or something like that. It never stayed on the screen long enough for me to read it.

I am trying to follow the info on Getting IPTables to survive a reboot. Everything works until I reboot but the script does not run when linux starts. The article says to create a script so ifupdown loads these rules on boot:
Code:
echo "#!/bin/sh" > /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables
echo "iptables-restore < /etc/firewall.conf" >> /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables
chmod +x /etc/network/if-up.d/iptables it put what I think is a symlink in if-upd but iptables still does not survive reboot.

I've used VLC for years, in both windows and linux. In windows streaming, you can select "NONE" for a Video Input, and just stream audio. This is not the case for Ubuntu's version.What can I do to stream just audio in VLC?

on my VLC, I set up a stream via: media -> streaming -> add an .avi and click on stream -> next -> select http, then clicked add -> selected theora/flac codec under OGG -> clicked next -> clicked stream.Here, I'm able to open another VLC player and connect to network[URL]I was just wondering if the IP address is what's needed to have them connect to me, or if it was something else? In addition, I disabled pglcmd and forwarded port 8080 for my IP.

Want to record an Internet radio broadcast. If I go to the relevant website and click on the streaming option, I get a box that offers me a choice of programs with which to open the stream. Right now it only has "Movie Player (default)" from which to choose.
If I click "other" then I have to tell the program where the VLC media player executable file is located.
How do I find this location?

I want to stream a radio station that uses .cfm . I've tried a lot of options but without success. Anyone have experience with cfm?
I can stream other stations using vlc media player and even Adobe flash player. But no success with this cfm stream.

I have been recording some demos from games like Quake 3, 4, and Doom 3. Now, I've been able to use Quake Video Maker in the past to take the Targa frames that the games export, and then combine those into a movie. However, it seems this time that QVM is spitting out some bad files. I try to watch the AVI file, but I just get this error message:
** Message: Error: Could not demultiplex stream.
gstavidemux.c(3526): gst_avi_demux_stream_header_pull (): /GstPlayBin2lay/GstURIDecodeBin:uridecodebin0/GstDecodeBin2:decodebin20/GstAviDemux:avidemux0:
pull_range flow reading header: unexpected
I figured that if I import it into Kino, then I should be able to edit just fine. Except, when I import it into Kino, the video just hangs on the first frame for the first half, and then plays the whole video at double the speed.Is there a better package that will take a lot of image files and export them into a movie file? Preferably one where I don't have to add each frame manually, as the demo I'm working with now has 5000+ frames.

I've finally found a way to actually stream .asx stuff using mplayer ( by extracting the actual link to the video from it ), and now I'd like to record it. In the asx, I've found a link to an .asf file, which I can stream using mplayer. How can I save this to view it locally?

I have two networked Ubuntu 10.40 machines and I am trying to stream audio from one machine to the other. I find on the surface everything works - I simply installed padevchooser and set the pulseaudio sink to the other machine. Now here comes the problem - whenever I do anything else involving network activity the sound crackles and hangs and it becomes hopeless. I've seen people elsewhere online complaining about crackling in relation to CPU usage but I can't find anyone talking about network usage.
In particular I often work on my office computers over VNC. I try to fire up VNC and it starts to load the remote desktop and the sound completely fails. I assume this is some kind of latency issue? Another good example is trying to watch a video on ..... - the sound plays at first but then as the video is being downloading in the background the stream starts to mess up. Listening to an mp3 in totem with no other network activity works fine.

I have a NAS set up (ubuntu server 10.04) which contains all my music. But when I play music from it, I can not see how long the song is and I can not skip to a specific time in the song. When I play video, all works well.

We are able to stream the video fine from while the flv file is located in the /var/videos/flv folder. We have a second volume that we formatted and mounted as /media/data/videos/flv. We have changed the path in the lighttpd config file to match this. When we play the video we are receiving:200, Stream not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound, clip" "[Clip]"/media/data/videos/flv/test.flv".

I'm back with irritating questions. Ubuntu headless server, 10.04
I would like to set up my Linux box as a media streamer. I have Media Tomb set up so that the PS3, Xbox and other PCs can access my media over the LAN but I want to listen to my music on my iPhone when I am at work. What is the best way to do this? I have searched the interwebs as well as these forums with confusing results. I have found many options to stream while on my LAN but few to stream over the internet.
I rarely watch video on my iPhone so that is not a feature I need, just music.
While I am making a thread, is there anything that will stream .mov files to my PS3? I'd love to be able to watch my HD iPhone vids on the large TV in the living room.

I have an old computer that I have put Ubuntu on. I would like to connect it to my stereo and stream audio to it from my laptop, so that it plays through the stereo.
I'm hoping to find some software to put onto this old computer to make it work similarly to an airport express. Anyone know of any software like this?

my problem is regarding .asx live streams. Up till 2-3 weeks ago I was able to listen to [URL] perfectly well with Totem under Ubuntu 9.10.
Since then whenever I want to start the stream, Totem darkens and nothing happens. I've tried Mplayer and VLC as well but neither of them work (but that's not news because they didn't work when Totem did either).
I had a look at the recent package updates in Synaptic to see if any audio-related ones had been changed and I have downgraded libaudiofile0 (to version 0.2.6-7ubuntu2) and gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad (to version 0.10.14-4ubuntu1). The problem still remained, so I updated them again.
The radio chanel works perfectly under Windows, and other .asx streams (for example [URL]) are working fine with Totem in Ubuntu.
