From: SirZarath Excelsior Hi AWM Mars, I went to the showroom mentioned above, found it in your picks. I passed the screens and for me none of them was playing any video. The only thing I could see was an EML logo and a yellow DNA-like structure on all screens. The SL output showed a movie that should be running: http://images.apple.com/movies/fox/fantastic_4-silver_surfer/fantastic4silversurfer-tlr1_h.640.mov But it was not visible to me. Also pushed the media-play button in the lower part of my screen. That gave an output: "playing media" in the konsole window. But nothing ever happened. I still don't see *any* movie. So it does not seem CODEC-related to me but more an issue with the client and/or my setup. But I have no clue where to look. Also see my other thread called 'no video' for further details. Thanks for your help. Hi, well let me explain. On the ground floor of our sister company EML Entertainments, we sell standard 'deeded to land/parcel' media players. On the first floor is our stock of screen/players and servers for the Silver Stream Network, which is showcased on the 2nd floor. The url you posted is from the land media and not from the Silver Stream Network systems. These do not ever display the playing media's url ingame. With the Silver Stream Network systems, each screen has an integral player which used its own playlist. It is feesible to put 30+ screen/player units into a single parcel (going vertically as well as horizontally), even without media permissions or ownership of the land  . The system also incorporates a sensor that automatically triggers the media to play on the screen you are in front of, anyone else standing at an adjacent screen will watch a different movie from that screen/player and so on. Touching the play button on the screen will not function unless you own the screen/player or you are in the group that it can be set to share with, although we do have a 'public' remote controller for education, business or general public can operate each screen. Pressing the Play button on the client will only result in the land media stream to become 'live' as the Silver Stream media player/screen units can coexist with land media, this allows private landowners to still use their 'pay per view' media  to run in their skyboxes and private theatres, without interferring with all their tennants at ground level having their own TV channels, even in the same parcel. The sensor interacts directly with your client turning on the clients media stream allowing for the secure url/texture information to be ported directly to your client and not go through the public broadcasting methods utilised by SL's client. If you saw no changes in the media textures of the screens on the 2nd floor as you walked past each screen, that could be two things. One, SL was interferring with serverside scripts badly since I was last logged in lastnight (GMT) and all script based products were suffering latency issues. Two, your system cannot yet render media in SL. Try going to the WBA showrooms next door and walk around the 7 ground floor and 2, 1st floor screens we have in there. I know they were okay last time I checked, so that would leave your system. BTW, we have 2 sections to our showrooms, one third of the groundfloor is set to land based media, all the screens there will show the same stream to all viewers, this is mainly our 'screen' showroom.

AWM,
Many of us Linux users aren't even able to get standard SL parcel media video working, let alone what sounds like a nonstandard method to deliver video to the client.

One thing that might work is to try to install the w32codecs package, that will give support to quicktime and several proprietary codecs that are only avaliable in windows binary form.

From: Johanna Hyacinth AWM,

I understand what you are saying, but my pioint is, although the Silver Stream doesn't sound like a standard method in SL, it is based on the standard method, but my point being is, all the movies showing on the system all stream at less than 100kbps.. which from some of the 'test' links I've seen being used, they will not work in SL due to too high a bit rate. So if you cannot see those movies, you can be more confident it is your system and not a high bit rate, preventing them from being seen. Beleive me, when it comes to hosting and streaming movies/media in SL, you will be hard pressed to find anyone able to match the quality with such a low predictable delivery mechanism.

Thanks for all the feedback on movie playback.
Hopefully we'll get a clearer picture of what the common modes of failure are as time goes by - please keep posting reports with as much detail as possible concerning your platform and GStreamer version.
Future releases will contain some tweaks which I hope will incrementally improve compatibility.

Hey guys,
New to SL. Running Gentoo Linux and gstreamer 0.10.11 with good, bad and ugly installed.
I'm at Help Island Public trying to view a media file.
I see the play button at the bottom of the screen when facing the media billboard, but when I press the button I get the following in the console:
INFO: looping media... 0
INFO: playing media...
INFO: my_bus_callback: Got GST message type: clock-provide
INFO: my_bus_callback: Got GST message type: error
INFO: my_bus_callback: GST error: Could not open resource for reading
INFO: stopping media...
And I never get any streaming...the billboard never even goes black. Any ideas?

From: Jayyall Klaar Is totem required? Not as far as I know. I only mentioned it because it drags in some further gst-plugins. You can look at Totem as a GUI for gstreamer and at the SL client as another such GUI, so Totem might come in handy when testing if a video problem is caused by SL or gstreamer. From: Jayyall Klaar could you post your USE flags? From: emerge -pv totem|grep USE [ebuild R ] media-video/totem-2.18.2 USE="dvd gnome hal mad mpeg nsplugin ogg vorbis xv -a52 -debug -ffmpeg -flac -lirc -nvtv -seamonkey -theora -xulrunner" 0 kB note that the dependencies dragged in depend on e.g. the dvd USEflag. I ended up with the following plugins installed / not installed: (I still cannot view all the Movies in SL, so some of the not installed ones might be required, too) From: emerge -s gst-plugins|grep available -C1|grep -v available * media-libs/gst-plugins

v4 and v4/2 are both for mp4 codex, which is why you may not see all movie media in SL? I also could not see the equilvilent to a h.264 codex... another popular codex.

This is probably a version conflict between the libogg which SL uses and the libogg which libtheora uses. You *may* have luck with deleting lib/libogg* from the SL folder as a workaround. |

Actually, you're mistaken on that. -v4l and -v4l2 are the plugins for the video importing feature of the Linux kernel called "Video 4 Linux." This is where you can take a video capture card or USB device, plug it in, and grab video from a camera or cable TV. For Mpeg4 video, you need the ffmpeg plugins, and the h.264 codec will be in ffmpeg, although I would loaad in -faad too.

libtheora
08-17-2007 13:16
Tofu, as soon as I removed the libogg from SL's lib folder, the libtheora message went away. All other messages remain the same. Still complaining that it doesnt know how to handle quicktime.
As I mentioned before, I can watch the movie perfectly with the the following command and outputs:
gst-launch -v playbin uri=http://www.vialak.com/download/SL/Cinema_trailers/O_Ultimato_Bourne_01.mov
...
... warnings about codecs I dont have.
...
/playbin0/decodebin0/typefind.src: caps = video/quicktime
/playbin0/decodebin0/qtdemux0.sink: caps = video/quicktime
/playbin0/selector_audio_src1: active-pad = "sink0"
/playbin0/selector_video_src0: active-pad = "sink0"
/playbin0/preroll_video_src0: min-threshold-time = 2850000000
/playbin0/decodebin0/queue0.sink: caps = video/mpeg, mpegversion=(int)4, systemstream=(boolean)false, codec_data=(buffer)000001b0f4000001b50900000100000001200086c5d4bf07d30a041e1463000001b258766944303033370000, width=(int)320, height=(int)240, framerate=(fraction)30000/1001
/playbin0/decodebin0/queue2.sink: caps = audio/mpeg, layer=(int)3, mpegversion=(int)1, rate=(int)44100, channels=(int)2
/playbin0/decodebin0/queue2.src: caps = audio
...
...the movie starts and a whole lot of stats messages comes after this.
...
Funny thing is that I put libogg back and still dont get the libtheora errors anymore! (Yes rebooted, removed and install again all gstream, libtheora and libquicktime packages, and NOT using PRELINK).
I even tried removing all the libs that I already have in my system:
libcurl.so.4 libogg.so.0 libSDL-1.2.so.0 libstdc++.so.6 libvorbis.so.0
Also removed libvorbis*, and linked my new libs (libvorbisfile.so.3 and libvorbisenc.so.2) pretending to be the "0" version. No effect at all on the movie.
Just installed the new ATI drivers from AMD's site today (8.40) and SL is even faster now on Linux!

32/64bit
08-17-2007 14:39
Tofu, do you think this could be a 64/32bit problem?
I checked and seem to have all gstream libs, libtheora and libquicktime in 32bit also.
I was missing libfaac and libfaad 32bit, found them and put them in, but still same problema.
How does SL call gstream? Might help understand. (Sorry, not enough courage to compile and check the source)

From: Boroondas Gupte Not as far as I know. I only mentioned it because it drags in some further gst-plugins. You can look at Totem as a GUI for gstreamer and at the SL client as another such GUI, so Totem might come in handy when testing if a video problem is caused by SL or gstreamer. note that the dependencies dragged in depend on e.g. the dvd USEflag. I ended up with the following plugins installed / not installed: (I still cannot view all the Movies in SL, so some of the not installed ones might be required, too) Sorry for misusing the Quote environment, but vB parsing of is still down :-( Thanks for posting this...I am going to work on getting this working this weekend. |

I thought that would be the simplest to get running, but noooooo  I have all the plugins emerged that you do and still no play....so then I emerged all masked ~x86 plugins and tried again....same thing. Could you try to play the english texture tutorial at 155,215,22 and let me know if it works for you? Also, you said some videos work for you...could you give me the coordinates of a couple so I can try them?... |

Tofu, this is getting frustrating...where is the list of what plugins we need for this to work?
Or is it too open-ended and out of control to get some standard list?
Ya'know I'm trying not to get too negative, but I've been struggling for days trying to get this to work...it shouldn't be this hard to get working...
btw, can you give me a list of ports that I should have open on my router for gstreamer if it needs any open?

And I never get any streaming...the billboard never even goes black. Any ideas? Still getting this message in-game. I did install totem and I can run gst-launch-010 playbin uri=http://www.johannahyacinth.com/videos/LandModifier.mov and this plays fine on my screen. So there is definitely some problem with the SL client on my system as gstreamer works fine with totem.... |

From: Drake Bacon Actually, you're mistaken on that. -v4l and -v4l2 are the plugins for the video importing feature of the Linux kernel called "Video 4 Linux." This is where you can take a video capture card or USB device, plug it in, and grab video from a camera or cable TV.
For Mpeg4 video, you need the ffmpeg plugins, and the h.264 codec will be in ffmpeg, although I would loaad in -faad too. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I don't use Linux myself, but that doesn't stop me keeping an eye on the progress for you guys, as I make machinima ingame and stream it back, so would love you guys to be able to see what people have been doing all this time.

Long time since I've used SL... Still no voice, but ok, this Lindens say is realy not ready... But wost: I still get NO MOVIES. Same problems, All gstreamer stuff avaliable is instaled, and I get no movies... And as I can see from forum and JIRA, this is considered a working feature...  |

Jinx, can you supply more log please? Ideally from the first mention of gst/gstreamer onwards.

for me, mainly it works, with the export LL_GL_BASICEXT=x #ed... well at least, MPG files are working ^^ But for the .mov, it doesn't work... it says 2007-12-31T16:34:43Z INFO: looping media... 0 2007-12-31T16:34:43Z INFO: playing media... 2007-12-31T16:34:44Z INFO: my_bus_callback: Got GST message type: clock-provide ** Message: don't know how to handle video/quicktime 2007-12-31T16:34:44Z INFO: my_bus_callback: Got GST message type: element 2007-12-31T16:34:44Z INFO: my_bus_callback: Got GST message type: error 2007-12-31T16:34:44Z INFO: my_bus_callback: GST error: Vous ne disposez pas du codec nécessaire au traitement de ce fichier.

But i do have the libquicktime0 package installed and can read local .mov normally with Kaffeine... It doesn't work for the stream size... Dunno if it's linked with SL but if there's a way to fix that, i'm interested, since 98% of the video streams available for SL are in .mov
