Re: DSS4 on YDL and a general mp3 question

I formatted the request just as you suggested and I get the response:

RTSP/1.0 400 Bad Request Server: DSS/4.0 Preview[v379.6]-Linux Cseq:
Connection: Close

Since I also enabled port 80 I tried it that way as well with the same
response.  This was all under RH 7.1.  Under YDL I have found a different
problem.

There is no pid file in /var/streaming/playlists/testmp3.  I even tried
grepping and slocate and I can not find a pid file for testmp3 anywhere.  On
the off chance that there was a

Under YDL I am running v403.  The DarwinStreamingServer starts and runs just
fine as well as streamingadminserver.pl.  However I can not get
MP3Broadcaster to start.  I recompliled again and didn't see any errors but
I can not get it to start even from the command line.  I have gone as far as
to try each of the switches and even tried all of them.  I took a guess that
there may be some kind of permission problem.  The current permissions are:

 -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       741933 Dec 18 20:37 MP3Broadcaster

This should be fine.  I also checked /var/streaming and they are set to:

 drwxr-xr-x    5 root     root         1024 Dec 18 20:37 streaming

And playlists under streaming is the same.   So it doesn't appear to be a
permission issue.  Below is what I get if I try to start MP3Broadcaster:

# MP3Broadcaster -d -c /var/streaming/playlists/testmp3/testmp3.config
usage: MP3Broadcaster [-v] [-d] [-x] [-X] [-a ipAddress] [-p portNum] [-l
filename] [-w filename] [-e filename] -c filename
       -v: display version
       -d: run in foreground
       -x: preflight configuration
       -X: check MP3 files
       -a <ipaddr>: broadcast to this address (default = local loopback)
       -p <port>: broadcast to this port (default = 8000)
       -c <path>: path to config file
       -l <path>: path to playlist (overrides config file)
       -w <path>: path to dir to create temp lists (overrides config file)
       -e <path>: print output to error file
#

Nothing more nothing less.  The only switch that gets me a response is -v
where I get: MP3Broadcaster/4.0 [v403] Built on: Dec 18 2001, 20:29:31

Any one have ideas?

Here is the conf file just in case:
playlist_file /var/streaming/playlists/testmp3/testmp3.playlist
play_mode sequential_looped
destination_ip_address 127.0.0.1
destination_base_port 554
broadcast_mount_point "/testmp3"
broadcast_name "testmp3"
broadcast_sample_rate 44100
broadcast_genre Pop
working_dir "/var/streaming/playlists/testmp3/testmp3"
logging enabled
broadcast_password "xxxxxx"
pid_file "/var/streaming/playlists/testmp3/testmp3.pid"

Interesting that the PPC complie has quotes around the paths and RH 7.1
doesn't.  Removing them made no difference.

Thoughts,
Dana
