How can we change the fps of the converted video ? I want to try high fps / low res videos on my devices but there is no way to do it inside ...

emit playback jittery

I bought emit, because mirage app updated and doesnt work any more, so until devs get it fixed, ill switch to emit, but one huge problem im having with Emit is that it stutters and jitters every 5 seconds during playback, either on wifi or on 4g LTE. I have tried different streaming protocols, different quality settings, and my server doesnt go above 60% processor utilization during live conversion, not sure where the bottle neck is. Dev, pleae advise, I have sent a email to tech support and havent heard anything yet.

has any one has/had this issue before?

Im running ICS 4.0.3 on HTC Thunderbolt, Mirage app ran smoothly with air video desktop app, so something is up with emit.

thx
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
It's not possible.

No idea, sorry :( On a computer where you are running Emit check http://localhost:1554/diagn and look if you see something or send me that output in pm.
[Android Apps and Games] Scyt:
Thanks for the app, changed from iOS to Android (Galaxy S3) about a month ago, tried all the other alternatives to Air Video for the Android but they were too bloated (all I wanted was a simple interface to play MP3s/Videos) or didnt work properly, purchased the paid version yesterday.

I'm just wondering and I apologise if it's already been mentioned, I use Emit more for steaming MP3s than videos, is there any plans to implement reading of ID3v2 tags? At the moment when playing it just dispalys the file name of the track and just shows "Unknown" for (what I assume is) the Album/Artist. Not a deal breaker as I have my music collection organised folder-wise where it doesn't matter too much but it would still be nice to have.
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Sorry for a long delay :( We're were currently working really hard on some other app to keep the company alive :) It's similar to Emit so as soon as it's done (week or two) Emit will get a lot of improvements from there ;)

Ok, to get back on topic. Currently is ID3 reading done with relying on Android implementation, but as it's look this isn't working on all devices. This will be changed for sure.

On ubuntu 13.04. Ran emit -s and get "startplain" and nothing happens? So added my ip on my android tablet and it connects but there is 2 preloaded folders and both are empty. Isnt there a GUI in ubuntu? If yea then why aint i gettting it? if not then how do i set my folders and stuff?
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Nope, sorry, no gui. You have to edit "emit.cfg" file (json). Check "README" file in tar.gz.

i'm trying to install emit 1.10.3 on my ubuntu server 12.04 machine.

when I try to start emit using "emit -s" I get

Startplain

{0,49,34} - <0.63.0> Upnp unknown msg {'EXIT',#Port<0.2590>,normal}

I'm hoping some one might have a suggestion for what I'm doing wrong, or if theres something i can try to fix it.

Thank you,

It is already a fine app, looking forward for the update. I'd be a little happier with a darker background :cool: Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
It should be "/usr/local/lib/emit/priv/upnp". Where did you install Emit?

It's going to be completely opposite. We have a lot of work with different projects right now, but it's slowly moving forward. Current state:

Maybe it will work with darker background. Will see :)

[Android Apps and Games] BURRITO_LTE:
Dark background would be excellent for us with AMOLED screens. An option to make dark would be nice! I love this app bought it in the first 5 min.

Also in the current EMIT app, some parts of the UI look fuzzy on devices with an HD (1080p) screen, most notably, the music player.

Excellent app! Thank you!
[Android Apps and Games] creative0100:
Excellent app!

One question though. It plays normal avi files ect well but really struggles with bluray rips, x264 files etc,... is there any reason for this or suitable settings I should try? Its being used on a note 10.1 N8020
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Check in task manager if your cpu is capable to handle that.
[Android Apps and Games] creative0100:
Its a 1.4Ghz quad core so I would like to think its capable!
[Android Apps and Games] creative0100:
Just to add to this.

Does the app require a decent graphics card in the the pc to work, especially with bluray rips ect? I have just replaced my old gt250 card with gtx660 and it plays fine without any stuttering now.... well so far anyway!
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Maybe you had problem with bandwith or something. There could be a lot of things.

Regarding graphic card I don't think that that made any change. As far as I know ffmepg doesn't support hardware decoding and encoding. Maybe I'm wrong :)

I'm glad that everything is ok now.

Can't connect through 3g anymore

I've had this app for ages without many issues until the recent updates...

Now I can't connect through 3g anymore. In the desktop app it says connection successful, and I can connect just fine through lan/wifi. My lan server is the only one that shows up in my server list. I've tried to add a pin server and it doesn't list it after I enter pin and password. Suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
This is a feature :) If app finds the same server in local network it lists just that because in local network you can't connect over pin ;)
[Android Apps and Games] thatguy123:
Yeah I understand that, but I can't connect via 3g. I keep getting server not available message.
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
I don't know what's wrong. I don't think that it's an app problem. Connection works the same as it was before. There is only a change in UI.
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Another release :)

Changelog:

- updated image library

- download improvements (completely rewritten)

- video controls fixed

- many minor fixes (sort asc/desc, image grid item click, ...)
[Android Apps and Games] thatguy123:
I think I figured it out. I got it to work by deleting the lan/wifi server. Then adding the pin server. So the problem is when the lan/wifi server is running, I can't connect via 3g. So can you implement a way to either have the one server recognize both options or be able to save 2 servers with the same IP without converting them into one? Basically how it used to be. Because now I have to remove one server to make the other work and re add them.
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Oh, yes. Nice one. If you manually add local server then it will be always on and you won't see PIN server. I forgot that option :( I need to do that somehow different :) Will be fixed. Thanks ;)

Invalid PIN

So i have installed the linux version of Emit server and it was working fine, now all of a sudden I get an error message "Cannot connect to Server", so I figure ill just delete the connection and re-add it on my phone. Problem is, now when I try to add the same server with the same PIN the app says "Invalid server PIN". Any ideas? FYI i can still connect to EMIT from the web app just fine..

Also is there a log anywhere on linux other than just what shows on screen? Are there any other command line switches for debug or config?

I would be interested if you plan to make a new version of it with the app having a smaller, more sleek and transparent look where the pause, backward, forward section is. It's always a problem when I want to pause it and read the subtitle and I can't, though by what I saw the subtitle disappears when paused. (mkv videos)

Also a feature to be able to select where to download your stuff, to phone or to SD card.

Why does it takes so long to buffer for fast-forward or to start reading? It's like 10 seconds I'm next to my router, my cpu is i5 2500k oc@4.3Ghz, gpu HD6970, my device is a Galaxy S2.

I remember with Air Video('cause XDA compared to it), it was almost instant.
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
When I installed the desktop app, at the end it asked if I want to have it automatically check for updates. I clicked no, because I want to manually do it because I didn't know if it would be running some background process on my PC 24/7. But now, I can't figure out how to check for an update within the app. Even worse, the website does not list a version number or date modified to the download, and the download file itself has no version numbers. What to do??
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Emit mobile app should tell you if you need to update desktop app. To update, download latest version and install it.

We will do something in future about that.

This is unfortunately how android works. Air Video on OSX supports http live streaming which is a modern day protocol, android is stuck with the ancient and ****ty RTSP/RTP.
[Android Apps and Games] zokipirlo:
Check out new version (4.0.3) :D.

What's new? Web access to videos over 3g of wifi. It supports also http live streaming for Android 2.3+ devices. In case of any video playback problems change to RTSP in settings and please notify us.
[Android Apps and Games] EleCtrOx666:
Seems awesome :D tried it out but...

HTTP streaming doesn't seem to work...

I'm getting "Something went wrong" messages when trying to play an HTTP-live video, though when I disable it after the 10 sec like usually I get the video playing correctly(with RTSP fcourse).

Thanks in advance for a solution :)

Ps: my config is above in another post, I'm on Android 2.3.4 and yes, I updated to last Emit(free atm) version on both PC & phone

i usually don't post anyhting on these forums but i just dropped by to say a massive:

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU

for developing this.. I was going nuts trying to sort out tversity and it just wouldnt transcode no matter how i sliced it, I always had to handbrake everything to mp4 so that i could stream it through TVersity...

For me, Emit is working perfectly with default profile, (best profile lags/skips a bit due to the lousy ARMv6 CPU @ 711Mhz on my ZTE Blade)

One small question though, it played divx/xvid avi's, WMV h264 mp4 and mkv's just fine..

However

I noticed that my rmvb videos wouldn't show on the listing..

Now i know it's wrong ;) but just renaming the file to an .avi made the files playable (albeit slightly choppy, regardless of streaming or encoded, so im guessing it should be a decoding issue on the server part?)

any plans to support/optimize rmvb playback in the future? :D God knows i hate that format but brazilian fansubbers love it for their anime and shows so I'm "forced" to use it :P

[Android Apps and Games] libehv:
this was the only feature which I really missed after coming from an Iphone 4,

the application videostream was very good on the ios platform

Now at last there is something in development for android also,

Something from my wishlist for this app:

*to add direct stream (video/audio pass through), so that compatible formats will not be re-encoded

*more options for video encoding, such as different resolutions and even higher bitrate

*file management for pre-encoded videos - at least delete function

during the first tryout I found that the pre-encoded video was in correct aspect ratio and got really the most of my pc's processing power and there weren't any hangups during the playback.

It was completely opposite to the live encoding - my CPU was basically on idle and it even did not exhaust my bandwidth with the 3000kbps video stream.

Having an experience on a different platform where it all worked quite flawlessly - I do have high hopes and hopefully there will be progress on these matters and make the android platform complete.
