Can you give me the VLC and client version numbers? VLC should be 1.0.5 (not 1.1) and client should be 0.3.2-1 from -devel. Then h264 should work fine, if your ubuntu VLC has all the proper libs.

Ok, this could be the problem. Looks like me VLC is only 0.9.4.
However when I do an apt-get install vlc it's telling me I'm already at the latest version?

Are you using jaunty then? 0.9.4 should be enough for Knots, but you may need to use some other format if h264 isn't working.
If n8x0 profile is working, you could try increasing its quality a little. Or install the extra-decoders package from extras and try the Browser-profile. Most sd videos should play with passthrough just fine too.
If you can find your way to our irc channel, I'm sure we can find a profile that works.

I'm actually using Hardy at the moment due to some issues with my graphics card drivers. Will 1.0.5 not run under Hardy then?

It may run, but you probably have to compile it yourself and compiling vlc + ffmpeg so that it actually works isn't an easy task.
Do you have x264 and all the unrestricted ffmpeg libs installed from medibuntu?
Since xvid seems to work, can't you just use that? Change h264 to xvid and if you don't get sound with mp3, you can try mpga,mp2 etc. depending on what libs you have installed.

Yeah, I downloaded all the libs and recompiled FFMPEG just to be sure.
It seems to be working if I change x264 to xvid. Only thing is if I use mp3, mpga or mp2 as the audio encoder I get weird audio problems, like the speech is slurred and too deep. If I remove the audio encoder it seems to play fine. Any ideas?

I am setting this up for the first time and it's way to complicated
I had VLC already and updated to the latest version.
Installed Knots (I am using Win7 x64 so installed in C:\Program Files (x86)\Knots)
Started the server
Accessing http://localhost:1978/ gives me "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
Am I missing something? Do I have to install Git for windows?
