starting rtsp handshake failed

I have windows 8.1 pro 64 bit, gtx 770.

Limelight worked fine for me a week ago, now I'm getting the error of RTSP handshake failed., econrefused.

I've already opened every port in the directions, that's how it was able to play last week. I have update gfe on my pc.

Any ideas?

I downloaded limelight-android sources from GIT, win7-64bit, Android SDK kit, Eclipse installed. Imported limelight-android project to Eclipse workspace, attached Android tablet usb cable, started an Android application in Eclipse, selected device. It was uploaded and installed. UI was started, type IP number, clicked "Pair with PC". Clicking "Start Streaming Steam" button gives me com.tinyrtsp.rtsp.message.RtspRequest class not found.

What is the proper compilation procedure if I want to juggle around?

A new port TCP 48010 is required for the RTSP handshake to take place. If that port isn't open, you won't be able to connect.

I have this issue with limelight. I cannot get limelight to pair. I click the pair button and nothing responds. There is no confirmation dialog popup on the PC. I have clean reinstalled both gfe 2.0.1.0 and the display drivers 335.23. The only time it responds is if I end the nvidia streaming process. Then I get an error on limelight. A URL with ID something in it. Seems like a pairing issue?

I also opened the ports including the new one : 48010 with no effect. Searching this thread does not help, I've only found one person with the same problem and he solved it on his own by reinstalling.

Help!

my computer is a Razer blade r2 with a GTX 660m . Windows 8.1, 64bit. HTC One M7 with Kitkat 4.4

EDIT: I've restarted multiple times. I've opened up an additional port: UDP 5353, I noticed this was an exception in windows firewall added when GFE was installed. not sure if it changed anything but finally..

Connected with excessive A/V Loss. Could be my router? its an ASUS N53. Dualband N

how do i do port forwarding? im having the current pairing issue

fail to connect ip address (port: 47989) after 5 secs

in my router options for port forwarding i have

application name, which i put Nvidia Geforce Experience

ip address, the internal pc address

TCP, i put 47989

UDP, i tried with 47998

schedule, always

and finally always allow

still have port connection problems

i temporarily disabled avg and tried allowing firewall to allow all and no dice
[Shield General] cgutman:
Sounds like it might be your router. Can you try a different one or connect directly to your PC (see the tutorial post above)?

Sounds like an issue with GFE. If you haven't, try reinstalling your Nvidia drivers and GFE 2.0.1.

Yep, that's right.

UDP 5353 is just for auto-discovery of GameStream PCs on the network which Limelight doesn't support yet. It's the port that Bonjour uses.

You mentioned that you're on a laptop. If your laptop is connected wirelessly, that could be the source of the issues. Try wiring it directly into your router via Ethernet.

I think it should work. If it doesn't, just post and tell me what's broken and I can try to fix it.

For pairing, you just need TCP 47989 open. Have you tried directly connecting to your PC's LAN IP address? You shouldn't have to worry about port forwarding then.

Ouya right analog stick

Hello,

First of all thanks for this incredible piece of software. I only have an issue with right analog stick on Ouya gamepad, that seems undetected. I tested it works normally and that a xbox360 gamepad right analog stick works out of the box. There is Also the problem with inexistent start button on ouya pad but it is Ok for me. Does anyone have the same problem?

Thanks
[Shield General] 1xinfusion:
I just wanted to come back to post a thank you for this amazing work !

I did try ethernet and it did help things. Although i turned down to 720p 30fps and its manageable wirelessly, probably because my router is quite low end. For those with pairing issues such as me, uninstalling the driver and GFE, restarting once in between, CLEAN reinstalling both the driver and GFE is crucial, and restarting once afterwards. Next step is opening ports on router as well as on the firewall (exception should be already created, if not add the ports in)

Seems like an excessive amount of restarts, but installing/uninstalling changes files which are in use and require a restart to be able to apply some changes / fresh state.

additionally (optional) i set static DHCP for my lan address so my laptop doesnt get assigned random IP's from my router. Purely convienence though so unless you have everything set up, i advise this for later.

Again amazing work. If the app has an extra joystick / keyboard overlay, it would be absolutely the perfect streaming solution. But i do understand you are working to get the important things done first :)

Ouya Game Streams

Hello,

Is there anybody who has had success streaming games to their ouya?

I get the devices to pair, and its wonderful.

I get to explore my library and audio works fine.

Until I try to start a game.

I just get the blank big picture background on both my computer screen and my television.

Then after a few seconds its back to my library.

Is there a setting I need to change to fix this? i have it set up at 60 FPS 720p.

Are there any settings I need to change on my pc? I have a GTX 650, and I'm running 2.0.1 GFE.

The games load on my pc if I run while the devices aren't streaming, but otherwise it just crashes from both ends when limelight is attempting to stream.

Games attempted include Bioshock Infinite, Alan Wake, Sleeping Dogs, and Batman Arkum Asylum. All results the same.

Thanks
[Shield General] cgutman:
It sounds like the GameStream software is causing your games to crash. Try uninstalling your GeForce drivers, rebooting, clean installing the latest drivers, then rebooting again.

I am stumped.

My ps3 controller is acting like a mouse in steam and in games. Left and right stick are moving the mouse. No idea why or how to stop it. Any ideas?
[Shield General] wienersoup:
I uninstalled both GFE and my drivers, and reinstalled them. I just attempted to stream and still no luck. Same results.

Now I noticed in my GFE in my rig tab in regards to game streaming, all requirements are checkmarked green except the router, but I have two 802.11n routers. The cable company provided router which doubles as a modem is where my ouya is plugged in, and a netgear in my room connected by ethernet. The router in my room is what has my nvidia powered desktop attempting to stream games.

I have no problem pairing and streaming steam itself, its just that games are still failing to load when I attempt to run them, unless of course, im not streaming, then its all good on my computer.
[Shield General] peter432:
Anyone tried it with the wikipad?
[Shield General] Motawa88:
audio crackling, i have to pair again every time i reboot. Galaxy S4 Stock rom.
[Shield General] cgutman:
It's on the to-do list.

It's a limitation of Android that we can't hide the cursor. It's only possible with vendor-specific extensions (like Ouya) or possibly with root.

What device are you running Limelight on?

It's something to do with Nvidia's software. I've seen it happen before in testing but we haven't found a way to prevent it. Nvidia is injecting a DLL into the game and code in that DLL crashes, bringing the whole program down with it.

The audio crackling issue is known. The cause isn't currently known.

The pairing issue is also known, but it's pretty low down on the to-do list because I think it will require reverse-engineering GFE 2.0's pairing mechanism which occurs over SSL. It's possible but tricky because we'll have to man-in-the-middle the SSL connection. It's only possible because the Shield doesn't do proper certificate validation on GameStream PCs (since the PCs generate their own self-signed certificates).
[Shield General] Motawa88:
the sound issue wasnt present in older versions
[Shield General] The Punisher:
Yes, it just works as expected.
[Shield General] Attreyu:
In order to turn and look around without using on-screen buttons or controllers which suck (you can't turn fast enough when you need it) especially in first persons shooters, you can use Freepie - http://andersmalmgren.github.io/FreePIE/

It has two parts - the main program which is installed on the PC and a little .apk on your device.

It works by emulating your device into a mouse, using the integrated gyroscope and accelerometer. So when you tilt the phone/tablet, the PC view does it as well accordingly.
[Shield General] Motawa88:
Can you add gyroscope support so we can use limelight with the dive vr headset?

well, too bad limelight crashes anyways when you try to start a game with tridef 3d (for the side by side)

pairing Problem

Hello all,

I hope somebody can help me with a pairing problem from limelight to PC...what strange is that I had it working before the latest updates of limelight app, NVidia graphic driver, and GFE.

after I updated all programs and drivers. things started to act strange. like when I hit ''Pair'' in limelight I am getting:

''HTTP:// (my host IP Address:47989)Pairstate?uniqueid=(my Cliant MAC Address) ''

. . I've already tried it on 2 android phones, ouya, limelight PC, all with same result.

I have already tried deleting GFE and reinstalled it.. nothing... ive tried deleting the graphic driver and reinstalling it. and even downgrading it . . but nothing. I have changed routers. for the life of me I can not find the cause of the problem.
[Shield General] bluegizmo83:
Ok, so I'm pretty sure my router is causing my problems, but I thought I'd run it past you guys to see what you think..

I have LimeLight installed and working. I can load games and play, somewhat, but I had some bad audio video choppiness.

I have a GTX 760 card, my PC is hard wired to my Netgear WNR3500L router (non-dual band, 2.4Ghz wireless-N), and my Nexus 5 connected to that same router wirelessly.

I have set Limelight to the lowest settings (720p@30fps, 2Mbps on the bandwidth slider).

So, is my lack of dual band router causing my video and audio choppiness?

Streaming only steam "wallpaper"

Hi I have been streaming to a nexus 7 2013 with no problems through limelight, but recently with the 2.0.1 when connected instead of showing library, recent, etc menu, Steam is only showing the wallpaper with the bubble things. No menu, no controls. closing this with alt+f4 and relaunching gives error 525 application minimized. Any other with the same problem?

Steam enrolled in beta, 337.50 beta driver, limelight latest version.

GFE 2.0.1

thanks

Will a usb ethernet adapter 10/100 Mbps be better compared to wlan 5ghz?
[Shield General] death_entry:
I only get the bubbles prob when closing a game, I can't then run a second.... The app minimised thing is down to not having shut steam down properly using the stop streaming command... To relaunch it exit the steam bootstrapper exe from task manager...

mouse bouncing off screen?

Hi, i got a new android tablet, everything is working good , except when i move my external mouse or try to move pass the border of the screen of tablet it bounces off the border and i cannot move the character past that point, this is when playing an fps game. Anyway to compensate for that?
[Shield General] cgutman:
It's related to the work Nvidia did to reduce audio latency. Some Shield users are experiencing it too.

Does Limelight itself crash or it just disconnects the stream?

Are you using any remote desktop software? If you connect to your PC via Remote Desktop, it will break GFE's streaming software until you reboot again.

Yes, my guess is that it's your router.

We're using Nvidia's software on the PC, so we can't easily add support for AMD cards without writing our own server software for the PC.

Yes, bandwidth isn't the biggest concern for Limelight. Packet loss and latency are the biggest gameplay killers for streaming. Any Ethernet is golden for those.

I found that someone else who had this issue on Nvidia's forums solved it by un-enrolling Steam from beta updates. Can you try that? If it works, I'll update my instructions.

Also try unenrolling Steam from beta updates and see if that fixes it.

Unfortunately, it's a limitation of Android that doesn't have a workaround at the moment. The mouse works by sending absolute coordinates of the cursor on the screen (emulating a finger). Unlike a PC, we can't get relative mouse movement events. It's possible to read directly from the mouse device where the raw relative events are exposed, but it requires root.
[Shield General] Milardo:
My tablet is rooted, how do i go about that, where you said is it possible to read directly from the mouse device where the raw relative events are exposed?
[Shield General] death_entry:
I'm rooted :) I like root on all my devices...

+1 for root and no mouse cursor....

Also is it possible to have touch input instead of moving the cursor around as if it's moving it around on controller analog? :D

Edit...

I'm also not in the beta program, never have been, my computer is actually a clean OS install from about 2 months ago, so not sure on that one :p
[Shield General] jpeich:

"try unenrollin from steam beta to solve bubbles issue"

And thanks for this incredible piece of software!!
[Shield General] wienersoup:
His problem is greatly similar to mine, i just never had previous experience with any earlier versions, and I'm running on an ouya. I shall try that too. Seems like it makes no sense, but somethings don't. I was however quoted earlier that it was something nvidias software was injecting into the code. A dll, and everything just crashing. There wasn't any known solution to prevent it, so i can't help but wonder how it ever worked then.

My latest attempt was another attempt at driver install and GFE, specially noting to do a CLEAN install of the Nvidia drivers, I still haven't had any luck. Going to try the steam beta updates option.

*update* I was not enrolled with steam updates, so that makes no diffrerence to me.*
[Shield General] Motawa88:

[Shield General] Luriden:
My mind is blown by the fact that people are actually able to use this on their Android devices. I have a Belkin N600 dual band router, and even with the lowest bitrate and at 30hz, games are unplayable. My screen freezes after every second and a half. Things work perfectly with a wired connection on my laptop, but that defeats the purpose. Is there some special configuration option I'm missing on my router's wifi settings or something? I don't get how it streams so badly on my own network with a decent router. Oddly enough, the input speed is alright (watching the mouse cursor on my Steam PC while using the touchpad on my laptop) but the audio/video stream is just unbearable.

I nearly spent $200 on an Nvidia Shield, glad I didn't.

EDIT: Nevermind, it actually runs decently on my Galaxy S5 connected to wifi. My phone has better wifi than my damn laptop. Now if only I had a way to actually control the game on my phone.
[Shield General] wienersoup:
I don't understand why I'm consistently having this problem where the game just closes instead of playing, while everyone else is getting to work. What's the different variable here?

is it because its a 650?

because its windows 8?

my nvidia drivers were a clean install at the latest stable release.

GFE is updated, also reinstalled.

sigh.
[Shield General] bluegizmo83:
OK so it was definitely my router causing it to be unplayable at home over my local WiFi network (PC hard wired of course)... Because right now, I'm 240 miles away from home, and I can play all my games using limelight over the T-Mobile LTE network where I'm at on my Nexus 5, and its flawless! I'm getting about 30 Mbps down and 18 Mbps up on LTE with a ping around 50ms. Limelight is set to 720p @ 60fps, 5Mbps bandwidth on the slider, and its flawless! I was even playing Titanfall online multiplayer with minimal input lag and ZERO Sutter's or artifacts!!

I just want to say, AMAZING job creating this app!! I love it! Is there a place I can donate to the developer?? I'd be happy to do so the next time I have some money to spend!!

edit: Oh and by the way... Holy sheet does this baby burn through the bandwidth!! An hour of gaming at 720p 60fps 10Mbps burnt through almost 3GB of my mobile data!!

[Shield General] bluegizmo83:
Well, I thought it was... Don't get me wrong, 4G LTE worked great! But when I got home I did some more testing over my home Wifi (2.4Ghz wireless-N only, typical link speed around 54Mbps) and it turns out the problem was my bluetooth Moga Pro gamepad! Without the gamepad connected to my phone, I can stream over local wifi at 720P 60fps and 10Mbps on the bandwidth slider. So my Nexus 5 must have the dreaded bluetooth/wifi antenna issue.... I'm wondering if a 5Ghz router would solve the problem, or if it is just in the nature of the way the Nexus 5 antennas are connected? Oh, and I have unlimited bandwidth too, BUT I only get 5GB at high speed then they drop me down to the Edge network for the remained of the month, which is useless anyway.

---------- Post added at 10:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

I don't get what the big deal is with the mouse cursor? Just drag it off to the side of the screen and its gone! Any not EVERYONE wants it gone. I personally found the cursor VERY useful. Especially when my gamepad battery died and I still needed a way to control things to shut down the game and streaming service!

Ok so I have the wifi bluetooth issue that is detailed on the OP of this thread, which causing my android limelight stream to get really bad when I'm using my bluetooth Moga Pro controller. My router is a 2.4Ghz Wireless-N. I'm thinking about upgrading a Dual Band (2.4Ghz & 5Ghz) Wireless-AC router, but before I do so, I'd like to know for sure that using a 5Ghz band will eliminate the problem. So, has anyone on here had this same wifi/bluetooth issue and was about to solve it by using a 5Ghz router? My phone that I'm streaming limelight with is a Nexus 5 if that matters.

Test version of Limelight with slightly lower bandwidth requirements

I've made some modifications to Limelight that reduces the network requirements a bit. I'd like people to give it a try, especially if you've had network issues. Report artifacts or anything better or worse. When you report results, describe your setup (router, device, PC) too.
