I'm hoping someone can help me with an issue I'm having with streaming please. I am trying to stream using full bandwidth which is 10-20mbps but I'm unable even to get a steady stream from SD chans. I think it's a latency thing perhaps and I maybe need to add a buffer? Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Stream to the Solo? From the Solo? WiFi or LAN attached?

Sorry I'm trying to stream from solo2 to VLC and Kodi. Network is 1gbps to router then WAN is 10-20mbps up. At display end I'm 50mbps or so down.

For HD I realise some streams will be too high a bitrate but even SD stalls.

You would have better results if everything was hardwired.

Yes everything is hardwired but box is 5 miles from where I want to view it so I have to use internet.

... like drawing blood from a stone:(
So you opened up the router to get access or using a vpn?
Also your ViX image is way old

Not what it says in his signature:) Which happened to be the only thing I could see as I posted back!

Hi,
at least for some public SD channel like ARD or in the UK BBC 10Mbps might be already to less because in Germany they are using up to 9-10MBit already and I assume BBC will use similar bitrates. You have a solo2 so some transcoded tests with port 8002 and 1mbit might be worth a try.

You are watching SD which is interlaced material so try playing with the deinterlacing methods of VLC because the default setting is not optimal.

ciao

We are still none the wiser. What does 10 - 20 mean? Is it 10 or 20. What is the bandwidth of your vpn? Or are you just exposing your e2 receiver directly on the public internet waiting for it to be exploited?
