With the new pricing plans and streaming service I am strongly considering upgrading my U1 account.
1. Is there a way (or will there be) to stream from U1 to an Ubuntu desktop? For instance, I have an Ubuntu desktop/media server that I utilize as a media hub for my home. It has more storage than I'll ever use. The main PC I use however is a HP netbook with a much smaller hard drive. I'd like to sync all of my music from the media server to U1 so that I can access my entire collection via my Android phone. I'd like to be able to do the same with the netbook but if I sync it to U1 it quickly fills the hard drive. Is there a solution for this?
2. I doesn't appear that the U1 Mobile comes with additional space, is that true? (seems a little steep for just streaming while limiting you to 2gb)
So I have a notebook with a web cam and ubuntu on it, I would like to use the webcam to stream videos that I take in class to my desktop at home (dual booting ubuntu and 7). The idea is that I can take video notes in class and when I get home I can look them over because they've been saved to my desktop. What would the best course of action be in this instance?
My Specs: Asus UL80jt, i3 core processor, 4 gb ddr3 ram, Dual Boot Windows 7 and Fedora 14. I use Last.fm on my Xbox all the time and I use this application to stream music online all the time in windows. I would love to run this in Fedora 14, however I keep running into an issue when I go to run the make command.
I have tried looking online for awhile and cant get anywhere, I spoke to a few of my friends who run F14 and they say I am missing g++, I can't find how to install that, can't find it with yum, GUI software manager, nothing.
It seems I might be having an issue that's a non-issue. I am not able to stream/ connect to a stream using vlc.I've looked at a few walk-throughs; I follow the steps and as often as not I get no error messages but cannot connect to a stream.
I've been trying to get my server running 9.10 to stream video over http through VLC [URL], but am using port 8080 for tomcat. Is there any other way to stream or change the port that VLC uses?
I have XP and Ubuntu on my computer, and the only thing that keeps me using Windows is that I need to view streaming WMV videos for school. I use windows media player for this almost every day, and I also use the play speed settings to speed up the videos to 1.5x.
I tried watching the videos in Ubuntu using VLC, but I keep having trouble navigating through the video, and even pausing and restarting doesn't seem to work right. Is there a program that will do this reliably, or is there a way to get WMP running in ubuntu? I would love to get rid of windows, but all of my lectures are streamed solely in WMV, and I would need to get this working.
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?
I am struggling to find a way to send spotify (or lastfm, shoutcast etc) audio to my PS3 over DLNA. I have SP3MediaServer for mp3s stored on my Ubuntu machine, but want to extend this to streaming internet audio...
i'm currently running ubuntu server 10.04, I would like to stream tv from the server to web address or maybe other tv front end. Is there any software for this
there is a program on the shoutcast website called sc_trans which can be configured fairly easily to transmit a playlist via shoutcast. However, it seems to require a set playlist, and there is no easy and reliable way to tell it one song after the other what it should play (say, to get it to play whatever I am playing in Rhythmbox if I were to write a program to do that).So the question I have is this: Is there an alternative (preferably open source) shoutcast transmission library that I can use instead?
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.
I'm trying to get my mom to switch to ubuntu, and she needs this one radio stream to work. For the life of me, I can't get this radio stream to play on any player. here's the web address to it, and the mms address:

It's proprietary to windows which sucks, but I've followed a lot of forums where asx streams work. This one just doesn't
I'm on 11.04. I've tried VLC, Banshee, Rhythmbox, xine,gstreamer, etc.
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.
is it possible to stream a window from X, as opposed to forwarding it over SSH? I've used X-forwarding before so that I could ssh into another computer and open up a graphical program and have it show up on mine. But as far as I know, that window only opens on your computer, not on the computer the program is actually running on. Is it possible for me to open a window on my computer, and to sort of X stream it to another computer that has X so they can watch what I'm doing in that window?
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.
We're sorry but we're unable to stream videos to your system. This may be due to an Adobe Software limitation on 64-bit Linux systems. I try to support this 64-bit stuff but it keeps biting me in the butt.
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'm finding it very difficult to play a video stream of .mov format. The Totem Media player gives me an error : GstDecodeBin2: This appears to be a text file
Even Real Media Player for linux is giving me an error: General error: HXR_CORRUPT_FILE (0x80040091)
Even VLC hangs on trying to play it.
(BTW the file isnt corrupt though, its apple's last night's iphone press conference from their official website - [URL])
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 need to download a WMV video from RTSP protocol. I tried mplayer ; It doesn't work. According to this: [URL] I tried VLC but it doesn't work too (The link has two videos - first is intro and company logo and the second is the main video and VLC just shows first in low resolution!) In Windows "NetTransport" Can get the stream (Both Videos separately) with high resolution. I googled for a linux application and found these: [URL]
First & Second Ones dont work! Third works and gets stream with high resolution. but it just get the main video and doesn't download Intro video. It also has several bugs (Download percent ,Estimated Time,... and the most important its resume feature that writes bytes in the first of file instead of its end)
Do you know better application for downloading RTSP streaming videos (with full protocol support)?
I'm new to linux, but after install ubuntu to one of my old PCs I have used "Connect to server" to view media from different computers from each other.Just today I've been getting Host Key verification failed on both computer A and B, one of the computers is running wubi.
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.
