Web stream and possible stream from Windows media server
  • Hi,

    Each sunday at 8h am, I stream manually this url http://bio-actif.dlinkddns.com:1040/ from VLC, it's perfect.

    I want to add (automatically) this url in bloc Web Stream, but i have a error "No MIME type found for webstream". Why ?

    Thanks

    dead link for me.

    But I found this to be a problem with some stream which if you try to pull the stream,you do not see
    1. The stream page 
    2. it resolves to a bin file
    3. It Most Case the set up is not to Stream Server but the application use some funny way of sending a stream.Like RadioBOSS does that like this stream
      http://radio100.zapto.org:8000/

    These type of stream usually play in flash dependent type players and webplayer and not others because the core client is wrap in a swf file

    People will suggest using ; or /; behind the URL but do even waste your time .

    The only way is through a satellite in ( from the web browser) type of scenario

    or decode it yourself and push the output using vlc,ffmpeg,avcon starting like this

    clvc options

    Good luck

  • Hello Guys,

    I can listen my stream with Videolan (VLC), not from browser page. Perhaps create a php script with curl function ? and get script in airtime interface ?

    Thanks
  • Micz Flor have a good write up here

    https://blog.sourcefabric.org/en/news/blog/2076/

    look for the part with the VLC

    it has something like this

    cvlc "http://link.to/stream" --sout file/mp3:/path/to/localfile.mp3 --run-time

    $LENGTH --stop-time=$LENGTH vlc://quit


    you can change the

    file/mp3:/path/to/localfile.mp3

    to a stream using the vlc built in (see http://www.videolan.org/doc/vlc-user-guide/en/ch05.html)

    cvlc -I http (--http-src /directory/ --http-host host:port)

    now  just set a cron job to pull the stream at the specified time

    and now you have your own local stream like

    http://localhost:port
    for the web stream

    I know you stated that you use vlc as I said the stream is wrap in a swf file

    and vlc can play that mime type

    but liquidsoap do not support that mime type so

    it will not play hence the error.note you can put this mime-type in apache at your own risk

    it still will not play by airtime.

    Tested and proven by me.
