Hello all,

Thanks Ross. I took your hint on the .ts files, and created a .ts file
from an MPEG program file using the testMPEG1or2ProgramToTransportStream
test program. I then indexed the .ts file and served it on-demand to the
AmiNet 124 using your media server. Trick-play worked beautifully.

So I guess the problem was with the .ts files, as you suspected. They
contain copyrighted content, so I can't make them publicly available.
But I can tell you how I created them. I used vlc-0.8.6 to access the
main titles of DVDs, and used the "write to file" output, with the
encapsulation format set to MPEG-TS and with no transcoding. The MPEG-TS
options for VLC were unchanged from their defaults.

Thanks,

Brian.
