VU+duo2 transcoding capabilities

[Rob van der Does]

You mean using two different transcodings at the same time? I don't know that,

Thanks for your honest reply. Just to let you know that black hole team has that capability since 2.0.8 I think.

BH (and VTi for that matter) can't be compared to ViX. They have an easy job, as they simply use VU's image and add some plugins and a skin.
We have to figure out how VU's options work, how we can embed them and we quite often have to work around their (driver related) issues.

Hi,
it seems to work. I just watched one channel on TV, one transcoded on my PC and another one transcoded on my tablet. I cannot check with which settings as VLC on Android does not give me that information I think.

Transcoding works fine on Zeus.

Personally speaking i wouldn't say its working fine when you have to use port 80 with no authentication, that's not fine by me but im sure its fine for others.

OK, as you wish: then transcoding is not working fine for you. It is for me; why would a fixed port bother me? And web authentication only adds seeming, and no real security.

You can always want more then you get; anyway we can't change things as they are in the hands of the VU-driver devs.

A little bird told me that VU is about to launch an updated version of the transcoding facilities. Who knows what that will bring us.

i hope my post didnt come across like i was being an arse cos that was not my intention, sometimes its hard to know how somebody is coming across just over text on a forum, i appreciate what you people do for the Vix image, basically offering a fantastic free service and i like many others truly appreciate the time and effort that goes into coding\building\testing each build of vix, i work for a software company and i know what can go into even a small update.

i also appreciate the issue is out of your hands as the issue is driver related, i think part of my issue is that there are options available that are useless for me as they dont work, port and authentication, personally i would like these options for my own reasons and i do not "expect" them or demand them, i just see it as a shame they don't work properly.

Set up a VPN then. Opening port 80 isn't the only option...
