Is 1mb upload to slow for transcoding? Vu Solo 2 latest openvix image...

[stevo88]

Hi i have recently tried transcoding to my HTC One 4g from my Vu Solo 2, finally got it working with the following setting on dreamdroid -

dreamdroid settings
connection
*******.dyndns-ip.com - port 8099
stream
*******.dyndns-ip.com - live port 8001

solo2 settings
openwebif - http port 8099
transcoding - port 8002, bitrate 400kbitts, framerate 50fps

forwarded ports - 8099, 8001, 8002 on router.

download speed 12mb upload speed 1mb

with these setting i have been able to get transcoding to work to my phone using VLC player but the quality is very poor, the picture is ok but the stream quality is unwatchable due to lagging.

question is is there anything i can change in my setting to improve the stream quality or is the 1mb upload speed just not enough to use transcoding?

Mobile is on 4g so that shouldnt be a problem should it?

all help much appreciated!

you may have to lower the Transcode bitrate even further or just try different settings until you find one that suits, 1mb Upload is enough for mobile streaming

Tried lowering bit rate but no luck digi. Are there any optimal port settings that might help?

Not really the transcoding port is fixed at 8002 so you can only change the outgoing if you specify it to work with 8002, Personally i would have though that 1mb upload would have been enough especially for mobile viewing.

Have you tested the ping from your phone back to your own setup to see if latency is high or not. Worth a try as it works both ways
