Sopcast with VLC

[Admin]

got a question, i am trying to test that alg soppy channel, but when it loads to 100% it doesn't revert to a black screen it sticks with the sopcast 3.3.32 or whatever advert is showing, as a result i can't click the button in the bottom left hand corner to open in my own media player, so i tried to open manually in vlc but it won't open it.
any ideas?

You managed to get it working already? Maybe it was a channel error?

hi. I followed all the steps given above.

Using advanced uninstaller to uninstall completely vlc and sopcast.
Install vlc 1.1.6 and sopcast 3.3.2, in Window 7.

Sopcast remains black when I write in a channel before. so i use vlc as the external players exactly as the instruction.

But when I open vlc, i get the
"Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://127.0.0.1:8902/'."

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

Whats the sop address your using ill test it as you will only get that if the channel is not broadcasting...?

[himurakent]

I tried with all the channel, but none of them work! this problem just happens recently....

Originally, the screen went black.. and when I integrate it with vlc, vlc did not really work...

[DEAD_MAN_WALKING]

How about running sopcast with the channel still running open VLC goto Media --> Open Network Stream Paste in http://127.0.0.1:8902 and hit play.

When i mean open VLC i mean from "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" or the shortcut on your Desktop.

Hi,

I tried that. Same thing come up...


"Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://127.0.0.1:8902/'."

I don't understand why. I add it to allowed program in firewall. Everything works fine before. Just when sopcast gets black screen...

Are you sure you got the latest VLC player. I had no end of trouble till I went to the veetle site. Also be sure the latest sopcaste gets updated. hth only trouble now is it doesn't like HD much

[algi]

Get the last VLC,go to tools>preferences>video and untick the first two options up on the right(accelaration and conversion).Check your bandwith as well.

First, make sure that you don't have the bugged 1.1.9 version. Either downgrade to 1.1.8, or get the fixed nighly from here.

Windows media player, that is?
You do have SopFilter installed, haven't you?

Cheers for your reply wired, I don't have sopfilter installed. Where can I find it? on the page you suggested to me it says go to here:http://www.easetuner.com/
All I can find there in the downloads section is soplayer and sopcast downloads.

EDIT: Ignore the last part, found it mate...

Did it fix the issue, then? All fine now?

Still saying "Successfully completed refreshing http://127.0.0.1:8902" but not actually starting. I am using it with Tversity, is there a way of streaming direct to my media player?

Oh, I see. I thought you were just trying to open Sop in WMP. My bad.

There's a little thread on TVersity here. Maybe that helps...

Follow these steps:

1 - Install SopCast

2 - Install VideoLAN - VLC media player http://www.videolan.org

3 - Open SopCast and select the channel. Wait for SopCast to show the channel

4 - Open VLC with this command line:
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -vvv http://127.0.0.1:8902/tv.asf --sout "#std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,dst=:1234}"

5 - Go to TVersity and add that Video URL mms://127.0.0.1:1234
