I'm running ubuntu 10.04 LTS and i'm behind a WL530g Router. The knots' server IP address is 192.168.1.9 and the client's (n900) is 192.168.1.8. I intsalled both the client and the server according to the instructions on the wiki,but for some reason I cannot connect from the client to the server.
I disabled the router's firewall, forwarded ports 1978 and 19780-19790 to 192.168.1.9, stopped Ubuntu's firewall ( Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup ),but still nothing. I haven't touched any settings in the server client except that I loaded a Collection (which I can view through the server). When I try to "connect automatically" from the client I get a few second freeze and then " Not connected to server". Same thing happens when I try to do it manually.
When I try to do a "remote discovery" from the settings menu I get a "Your server doesn't seem to be accessible from the internet. Check your firewall/router settings. Open/forward port 1978 and at least two other starting from 19780.".
I seriously don't know what more to try :x Any help will be appreciated.

No I can't :x I just can't imagine what other firewall can I have :X Router firewall is disabled completely, so is Ubuntu's firewall. Tried restarting router,server and client - no effect >.<
edit;
As seen on the screenshot I have nothing running in tray except Network manager,Keyboard preferences and Date/time
edit2:
I will try to fully expose the server station with virtual dmz now :x Hope this works -_-
edit3:
That seemed to fixed it O.o Really strange :x Sorry for the bother :X

Hi, is there any way I can test if x264 is being encoded properly?
I'm using an N900 on an Ubuntu server, server starts OK and I can watch my videos fine in the browser. I have played around with various profiles on the N900 and can get video playing under certain ones. Tablet seems to work, passthrough works but is choppy. If I encode to xvid that seems to work.
However if I use the N900 profile or try to encode to h264 I get nothing, a blank screen and then after a few seconds it just stops. If I select N900 profile in the browser it pops up a message saying it can't find the stream.
Any ideas please? Desperate to get this working

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.

Been seeing a few people posting about problems withh264 playback and thought I should check out if I could get it all working if I reinstalled everything from scratch.
And I could!
I saw you've upped the bitrate to 1280, which I still think is overkill for the N900 screen, but it works fine... apart from the annoying sync drift, which I've given up on trying to sort out.

Yeah, it seems the audio/video don't stay so well in sync with the h264 profiles, need to do something about that and release a new server soon.
Also few fixes in git that should help with wrong aspect ratio especially with mpeg/ts.
