Hello I began to do some test with the strm files and at the end I came to an endpoint: the strm support is flawed.
The stream is the following:
tmp://live.dtv.cubecdn.net/kdmobil/ playpath=KanalD1 live=1 swfUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/Content/swf/Canliplayer.swf?config=/Content/swf/Config.xml&debug=false pageUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/CanliYayin
If I run the following commandline:
C:\Users\administrator>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\PlexTranscoder.exe" -i "rtmp://live.dtv.cubecdn.net/kdmobil/ playpath=KanalD1 live=1 swfUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/Content/swf/Canliplayer.swf?config=/Content/swf/Config.xml&debug=false pageUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/CanliYayin" -async 1 -f asf -vcodec wmv2 -b 12000k -acodec wmav2 -ar 48000 -ac 2 -s 1920x1080 -re -rebuf 10 -
It will start to play the stream immediately after listing the metadata of the stream without problems.
If I put the stream of before directly inside a strm file and try to play it trough plex, it will just stop before giving any metadata saying:
Invalid data found when processing input
If I insert everything in a m3u8 as the following
#EXTM3U #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=1000000 rtmp://live.dtv.cubecdn.net/kdmobil/ playpath=KanalD1 live=1 swfUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/Content/swf/Canliplayer.swf?config=/Content/swf/Config.xml&debug=false pageUrl=http://www.kanald.com.tr/CanliYayin
And try to play it after the -i option of the transcoder, it will give all the metadata information and then it will close saying
Invalid data found when processing input
So what I would like to know is why the trascoder is not able to read the stream from a strm or a m3u8 correctly but if I pass the same stream url and parameters directly to the -i option the stream starts correctly?
Is this a bug?
