[Live-devel] Trick play on Amino 110

[Ross Finlayson]

A reminder to people who may be having trouble getting Transport 
Stream trick play to work with some clients: We provide a utility 
"testMPEG2TransportStreamTrickPlay" which generates - from an 
original Transport Stream file plus index file - a new Transport 
Stream file that contains the effect of 'fast forward' or 'reverse 
play' applied to the original stream. This file will contain the 
exact same data that the server would send if you had requested 'fast 
forward' or 'reverse play' from the client.

See 
<http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/transport-stream-trick-play.html> 
for more details.

Therefore, you can try streaming the resulting Transport Stream file 
(without indexing) to the client, to see how the client handles it. 
You may find this an easier way to debug your client.

In general, though, note that this mailing list is *not* the right 
place to be be complaining about problems with clients (unless, of 
course, those clients use the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" software). 
In particular, problems with the Amino set-top boxes are best 
discussed on an Amino-related mailing list.  Live Networks, Inc. is 
not affiliated with Amino Technologies, and we don't know enough 
about their hardware to debug it.
