Can't get live RTMP stream to play

[ghost]

I'm using Flash Media Live Encoder to stream live from a webcam to your module. The stats page shows incoming data and connections, but everything that I try to play the stream with will succesfully connect but report some variation of "[h264 @ 0x7f8ed0c2af40] no frame!" I've tried at least mplayer,vlc, rtmpdump, ffplay, and jwplayer. They all give a similar error. I've tweaked various settings in FMLE to no avail. One thing to note however is that if I use rtmpdump to dump it to a file, rather than try to play it in real time, I can succesfully play the resulting file in any media player.

The stream seems to play in mplayer after 3-4 minutes of sitting there. Right before it plays it spits out "Error while decoding frame!" Then the stream continues to play, on several minutes lag...and eventually stops in another few minutes.

I got it to play in JWPlayer by setting the filename to the strangeness that FMLE sets it to : "room?videoKeyframeFrequency=5&totalDatarate=248" in my case. The problems with the other players still persist however.

Thanks for the report. I known the module has this problem. It's about h264, no problem with standard flv/sorenson-h263 streaming. I'm working on this. However any related information is highly appreciated.

Also i'm using H.264 + HE-AAC on FMLE publish to Wowza and pull from your module, first play very good no problem, another players cant play. I dumped via rtmpdump check the data headers , i see differences in data headers. for first player data header started 07 00 , for second started 06 00, also i checked with ffmpeg, first player video and audio data is ok, second data is bad. like this;

[aac @ 0x195d9200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated
[h264 @ 0x195d74a0] no frame!
[aac @ 0x195d9200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated
[h264 @ 0x195d74a0] no frame!
[aac @ 0x195d9200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated
[h264 @ 0x195d74a0] no frame!
[aac @ 0x195d9200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated
[h264 @ 0x195d74a0] no frame!
[aac @ 0x195d9200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated

I am looking solution about this problem, if i found, i will share.

It seems I have the fix implemented. It's about AVC sequence header. I'll commit it later.

I've committed (&tagged v0.1.7) updated module version with the fix. Please report issues.

I tested, video is ok for late clients but audio cant play.

ffmpeg log:
[aac @ 0x1030d200] channel element 0.0 is not allocated
