Thread: transcoding and streaming to phone

    transcoding and streaming to phone

    ive got a quad plus box , still trying to get to grips with it .


    A)
    Regarding transcoding , i understand the box does transcoding is it hardware encoding.
    firstly using the android app i have transcoding ticked ,
    what are the 2 transcoding methods
    1. streamproxy
    2. enigma2 embedded

    are these software transcoders ?
    im using VPN
    The reason i ask when play HD recording through the app (over internet) , its choppy using embedded play or vlc

    if i use OpenWebinf and and select movies on the menu, and select the android icon for the same recording,
    it downloads a m3u file which i open with vlc , and it plays very smoothly
    could anybody give me insight to this ? thanks
    ps using openvix


    B)
    One tuner only ,if playing channel on tv and on phone\tablet accidently clicked on same channel to play , the tv screen goes grey
    rebooting machine doesnt correct on way to do reset switch on the back. Any way to prevent or solve ?

    The quad plus can not handle hardware transcoding
