I was perplex as duckduckgo search on this issue didn't lead to any useful info (not this thread anyway, whereas usually it does), and I was about to create a thread on it here but luckily a first search on this board led me here.
I was blind, I didn't notice the error message in vlc -v with libts_plugin until I read your post ; also it didn't occur in my mind that a library for "ARIB subtitles" could be used for an important task like mpeg-ts demux
]]>The message could be clarified that it might be necessary for certain streaming formats, I give you that.
Yes. OTOH, one could argue that if not installing an optional dependency has the consequence that the program will not work at all in certain cases, the dependency was not optional in the first place.
I've noticed that there's already a bug report. We'll see what the package maintainer thinks about this issue.
It is a dependency, read your pacman outputs during an update.
pacman reports this as an optional dependency. There is no indication at all that even people not interested in subtitles will have to install this optional dependency because otherwise vlc will not play (certain?) streams anymore.
Oh, and many thanks, berbae, for the solution.
]]>It is a dependency, read your pacman outputs during an update.
The optional dependency text doesn't say anything about it being required for streaming
]]>Thank you everyone, this is fixed.
it works for me as well. Did anybody raise a bug saying arribb24 should be added to the package dependencies?
]]>When a live stream video is launched with the -v parameter, it appears this:
[000055b9a95f1570] main libvlc warning: cannot load module `/usr/lib/vlc/plugins/demux/libts_plugin.so' (libaribb24.so.0: ... no such file ...
$ LANG=C pacman -Fo /usr/lib/libaribb24.so
usr/lib/libaribb24.so is owned by extra/aribb24 1.0.3-2
This package has this description:
Library for ARIB STD-B24, decoding JIS 8 bit characters and parsing MPEG-TS stream
Installing the aribb24 package solves the problem for me.
]]>rolled back to 3.0.3.r1-2.
these are the constant errors i see with 3.0.4-1
[00007f81fcce74c0] main decoder error: buffer deadlock prevented
[h264 @ 0x7f81f00b7000] cabac decode of qscale diff failed at 47 10
[h264 @ 0x7f81f00b7000] error while decoding MB 47 10, bytestream 5312
I just open vlc, click "Media", click "Open Network stream", paste the url and play.
Is the method i stream wrong?
