The full error:

Code:

22:19:53 T:7720 M:1814597632   ERROR: CAudioDecoder: Unable to Init Codec while loading file http://192.168.0.10:8082/rest/stream.view?p=password&c=xbmc&maxBitRate=128&u=user&f=json&v=1.5.0&id=483a5c4d757369635c546865205477696c696768742053696e676572735c44796e616d697​4652053746570735c3034202d20476574204c75636b792028416c62756d292e6d7033

If I copy that url into my browser what looks like a flash player comes up, but nothing plays. I can see in the Subsonic log that it's trying to play it.

can you post more of the log?

have you changed the transcode settings on your server at all?

Sure, here is the entire section of the log from when I enter a directory until it starts giving the error. Let me know if there's a different section you need.

I'm pretty sure I've never changed the transcode settings on the server. Here's a screenshot of my settings:

Also, I've tried this with and without transcoding turned on, and at a couple different bitrates.

Thanks

sorry to be a pain, but can you turn on debugging in xbmc?

looks ok.

couple more questions....
what type of file is the original you are trying to stream (mp3, aac etc.)?
do any files stream?
and have you tried 'play using' and choosing dvd player - does that work?

thanks,

t0mm0

Of course, anything you need me to do to help debug. Not a pain at all, thanks for the time you've spent building this

It's an mp3

Tried "play using" and files do play correctly with dvdplayer

hmmmm, weird. it looks like the folowing line is the culprit:

it should return "audio/mpeg" for mp3 streams.

well, i have no idea why it doesn't with your server, but as....

aaronb Wrote:Tried "play using" and files do play correctly with dvdplayer

i played around with the playercorefactory stuff and this will force xbmc to use dvdplayer (this also makes playback work whether you set transcoding on or off!)


i you don't already have a playercorefactory.xml in your userdata directory then make a file and add the above in it.

if you already have one, just insert the line:
directly after the <rules> tag.

see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...a_playback for more info on playercorefactory.xml

i suppose i could try and automate this in future as there appears to be no better way to force the player at the moment.

hope that works for you!

I can't explain how excited I am that someone did this. I'm getting this error:

even when I use the demo server.

that's strange - you're not trying to use the non-xbox version on an xbox are you?

it's complaining about simplejson being missing, but if you installed on a non-xbox machine using the repo then it should have automatically downloaded and installed it if you didn't already have it.
