Hi Kathir

Try rtsp://yourdomainname:554/untitled. As far as I know you don't need the sdp ending. PLus the sample movs provided in yoir DSS moviefile are already hinted.

Tell me if this worked.

Hello Paul,

           Thanks for your co-operations.

      I have checked http://soundscreen.com/
 for the details. I have already followed all these steps
to create movie playlist. Here is my steps goes:

1. Hinted the "sample_100kbit.mov" file contained in
    "DarwinStreamingSrc5.0.1.1" source by opening it
    using QuickTime pro player and choosing
    ' Movie to Hinted Movie' from the Export pop-up menu.
   I have already selected ` Make movie Self-Contained ' option,
   in the Hint Exporter Settings.

2. I have saved the hinted file as "sample_100kbit_hint.mov",
    and it's size is 1.60 MB, previously  "sample_100kbit.mov"
     has size of 1.04 MB.

3. I have copied "sample_100kbit_hint.mov" to default movie
    folder "/opt/iexpress/dss/media/".

4. I have created a New Movie Playlist using web admin (port 1220)
interface by adding only "sample_100kbit_hint.mov" file in that list.
Playlist name is "untitled" and mount point is "untitled.sdp".
I unchecked the "Send this playlist to a broadcast server" box and
saved the changes.

5. When i click the playlist start button, after few seconds, it is
displaying
the error message, "An error occurred while starting or stopping your
playlist".
When i look at the reason by clicking the red button, it shows:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- PlaylistBroadcaster: Created SDP file.
(path: /opt/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.sdp)
- PlaylistBroadcaster: Started in background.
- Network Connection: Server returned error.
Broadcast Warnings: 0
Broadcast Errors: 1
PlaylistBroadcaster broadcast finished.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6. I gave the following URL in my QT player:
    " rtsp://172.16.1.176:554/untitled.sdp"; ,
   where 172.16.1.176 is may IP address of DSS,
   but it display's " 404: Not Found " error.

The untitled.config contains:
------------------------------------
# cat untitled.config
playlist_file
/opt/iexpress/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.playlist
play_mode sequential
destination_ip_address 127.0.0.1
#broadcast_name "untitled"
sdp_file "/opt/iexpress/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.sdp"
destination_sdp_file "untitled.sdp"
broadcast_SDP_is_dynamic enabled
logging enabled
log_file /opt/iexpress/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.log
pid_file "/opt/iexpress/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.pid"
-------------------------------------

The untitled.sdp contains:

-------------------------------------
v=0
o=QTSS_Play_List 1770406660 1770395580 IN IP4 172.16.1.176
s=untitled
c=IN IP4 127.0.0.1
b=AS:94
t=0 0
a=x-broadcastcontrol:RTSP
m=audio 0 RTP/AVP 96
b=AS:10
a=rtpmap:96 X-QDM/22050/2
a=control:trackID=1
a=x-bufferdelay:5.99
m=video 0 RTP/AVP 97
b=AS:84
a=rtpmap:97 X-SV3V-ES/90000
a=control:trackID=2
-----------------------------------

  Please give your suggestions, if i made any mistake in above steps
If you need anymore details, please let me know about it.

Thanks and Regards,

Kathir

Its been awhile since I configured DSS-5 I use QTSS-5 but they are
similar.

Have you reviewed George Cooks website http://soundscreen.com/
specifically the section on playlists

As you know all files must be hinted.

I had questions on setting the mount point correctly in the beginning
perhaps
you have a similar issue.

If you still have problems by Monday check back with me.

Hi Paul Hugel,

Thanks for your reply. I built DSS 5.0.1.1 on HP-UX.
I
tested some basic tests. It works fine. But while testing Movie
Playlist
PlaylistBroadcaster through Webadmin. I got the following error.

- PlaylistBroadcaster: Created SDP file.
      (path: /opt/dss/var/streaming/playlists/untitled/untitled.sdp)
    - PlaylistBroadcaster: Started in background.
    - Network Connection: Server returned error.
    Broadcast Warnings: 0
    Broadcast Errors: 1
    PlaylistBroadcaster broadcast finished.

I have this problem for past one month. Do you have any idea to
overcome
this error?

Again, Thanks for your reply.

Thanks and Regards,

Kathir
