Hi, Sujeet,

first thanks for the reply. A couple clarification based on your message:

1. I suppose your rmserver.cfg, is hlxserver.cfg in the current release.
2. I didn't find any section in *.cfg file that has those definitions in your email.

Anyway, I made a little progress by using password only authentication (port number doesn't really matter here, i can specify 8080 which is my Helix http port, or not specify at all),
 producer.exe -i c:\test.avi -o test.rm -sp :producerpassword at 192.168.1.3/live.rm

It seems the authentication error is gone, but when I use a RealPlayer to try to play the live stream, realplayer rtsp://192.168.1.3/broadcast/live.rm,

The player says the link doesn't exist. And I checked Helix server logs, both error.log and access.log,

error.log:   16-Feb-2007 07:02:46.UNKNOWN tmplgpln(4607): 50: Error retrieving URL `broadcast/live.rm' \(Invalid path)

access.log has the error:  "GET broadcast/live.rm RTSPT/1.0" 404 0 [Lin\ux_2.6_10.0.0.0_play32_RN01_EN_586] [512ae9b1-bdc7-11db-f665-4d97144fcbdb] [Stat3:187|0|ST\OP|;][Stat4:0 0 0 0|0|0| 0 2] 0 0 0 0 0 12

I don't know what is going. I thought the /broadcast in Helix Server 11 is the default mount point which works with with Helix Producer 11's Push broadcasting. BTW, I also set the SecureRBSEncoder Realm and correpsonding user name/password.

Any suggestion to diagnose the problem will greatly appreciated.

In command line that you are using -sp
username:password at ipaddress:port/streamname the port specified should be
HTTP port of the server.

Since default installation of server uses 50001-50050 as ports for receivers
dynamically created by mount point encfs, my assumption is that is not the
configured HTTP port.

Example config entries in rmserver.cfg file specifying concerned ports.


        
        
        



You should be able to find more information in help file installed with
producer (producer -m) in following chapters.
Chapter 14: Using the Command-Line Application 
Chapter 11: Running a Broadcast

Thanks,

Subject: [Helix-producer-dev] Live broadcasting issue

Hi, 
 
 On Windows platform, I am using both Producer 11 and Sever 11_1 to do
acount-based unicast broadcsting following the documention. After setup, I
launched server and then  issue the commend
 
 producer.exe -i c:\test.avi -o test.rm -sp
producer:producer at 192.168.1.3:50001/live.rm
 
 But the producer immediately outputs the error message:
 
 BroadcastDist: Unrecognized option config.
BroadcastDistribution.Destinations.19216813.Authentication.StatsInterval
 Error: Failed to establish a TCP connection with server 192.168.1.3 for
authentication.
 
 Both my producer and server are on the same machine 192.168.1.3 and I
turned off the firewall compeletely. I also tried this with server sitting
on different machine, but it is same result. I don't know what is going on.
And didn't find any documents that describe the problem either. 
 
 thanks for any suggestions.
 
 Frank
