Dutty's ROM, Orb, and TCPMP

Hey everyone,
So I'm having an issue with Dutty's ROM, TCPMP, and Orb. All I'm trying to do is listen to a stream of music on Orb, and everytime I try, it fails. I've tried a soft reset, reassigning the file associations, changing orb's settings to a different media type, and reinstalling TCPMP to the .81 version. I've also tried copying new .dll's to the program folder, the windows folder and the folder where the cab was in which I opened the installer (the .dll's I installed were, "wmadmod", "wmsdmod", and "wmvdmod"), and I just keep getting the same error message, "Could not open URL!". I get the same error message if I try to watch a video. This has become extremely frustrating. If anyone has any idea how to fix this, please help. If not, is there any other comparable media player that would work with Orb that I could try? Any and all help again is greatly appreciated. Thanks again everyone.

check your computers firewall settings. Make sure in the orb config a OPEN PORT is put there.

Well I can get it to work on a PC, which tells me it should work on my phone, correct? So I don't know why it's not working on my phone. When I first installed Dutty's ROM, it worked, but after about two weeks, it stopped working, and I haven't been able to get it to work again since. I've had this issue before, and reinstalling TCPMP to the latest version and reinstalling the codecs needed to make it play, but it's not working now. I actually tried flashing my ROM to a clean Dutty with everything back to normal, but that didn't work either. I'll double check my router's firewall, but I don't think that's the issue; definitely a good observation though...Any other ideas?

try flashing it to different rom might help? At least you will know it's the rom or not.

Didn't solve the problem. I don't understand...

I am having same problem. I opened the right ports.
it says
Dialed: isp.cingular
cannot connect for an unknown reason. to check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings. If the problem continues, reset your mible device according to your manufacturers documentation and try again.
I opened all the right ports in my router. I ran a check in ORB and it passes, saying they are open. when on the orb site on my cell, it shows the videos, and even shows a small picture of the video next too it, but when I try to play it, I get the error above. i dont know what to do.

I had the same problem with Orb on Dutty's ROM (No. 6, AT&T version). What I ended up doing was creating a new network connection using the wap.cingular settings, then set that to the default network for programs that automatically connect. After that, Orb worked fine.

I tried this and still a no go. I figure I can use this post to help others, so I am going to show all my settings, just to make sure I am doing everything right.
Here are my PC settings. No software firewalls currently enabled.

also, just to note, I can stream the test video from test.orb.com or what ever. It does play, i think its a nin concert or something. However, when I try to stream my stuff it doesnt work. this includes both AUDIO and VIDEO. In the stream options on the website in orb, I have it set to just .3gp. It gives a bunch of options including .asx, flash, winamp, 3gp w/ aac etc. I tried them all, and none of them work, but right now its set at just regular .3gp.
I have 16/2 mbit internet service and my phone is 3G, so I dont think its a bandwidth issue.
I have an 8925 tilt w/ Dutty's ROM # 7.

Hey guys, I was having the same issues with ORB until I found this cab which sets the wap settings for att. if you have att maybe they will help you too, not really had much of a problem since I got this cab, and I've used it on many many tilt roms.
Hope it helps, post back your results!

Well I think i got it working!
I used the shogan thing above, an now atleast windows media player will stream. .asx. I was able to play bleach video, as well as a mp3. I tried 3gp, and it still doesnt work

Anyone able to get .3gp to work? If so, what settings and what player? I've got orb working under this rom with .asx under windows media player but nothing else. I was able to get it to work with the real media format under real player and it seemed to stream smoother, but no full screen in real player (and now I've somehow changed something that makes the phone try to download the file instead of stream under that format). No luck with 3gp at all - streaming player either tells me that the media format isn't supported or that it can't connect to the network. This is driving me nuts because media player disconnects way too often...

I am now using duttys touchflo rom, and having more problems.
However, I ran into a problem. I am trying to use ORB to stream video and music from home. Its .ASX stream. On Dutty’s No 7 rom, it used his custom windows media player, after some fighting, I got it to work. Now I am trying to do the same thing but its using a program called TCPMP. Every time it loads after clicking a link I get the error “file not found! –web “my doc\stream.wmvebasx”” How, can I get the streams to go back to windows media player, if it even exists in this rom? Any help with the streaming with ORB would be greatly appricated 
as for the last poster, no I could not get .3gp to work at all Now I cant get .asx to work. Anyone got any idea's?

I was having the same problem, too. But after installing the "shogon" .cab file it started working (at least for my .asx stream). I haven't tried streaming a .3gp file on the Kaiser (mine is a CID unlocked Tilt). My speed tests calculated web speeds ranging between 64-230kbps before installing the shogon cab and it calculated 700+kbps afterward . ko0ky, do you know exactly what the cab changed in the configuration? Is it a proxy tweak? Thanks for posting the cab.

the issue is that you where using the att proxy, orb doesnt work when you connect via att/cingular proxy, that is the issue, that cab files removes the att proxy so now it works. The att proxy is useless and most media streaming doesnt work when you connect through it

I have old ATT Blue mMode...when I tried the shogun cing cab now I can't connect with the setting it made...had to revert back to my old mMode setting and now PIE won't connect at all??? What exactly besides creating a new connection with cingular settings does the shogun_cing.cab file do? As I need to reverse it...tried uninstalling it and resetting and still internet explorer won't connect...but Opera will???

DLNA/UPNP problem with Onkyo AV-Receiver

My Galaxy Note doesn't recognize my Onkyo TX-NR509 in Allshare. The other way round the Onkyo recognizes all DLNA/UPNP devices in my network but not the Note. Using BubbleUPNP it sees the Onkyo and I can choose it as the output device but when I start streaming it doesn't play and ends with an error ("Transport is locked (Code: 705)"). Every other phone is working fine with the Onkyo (Desire HD, Defy, Milestone)
Any clues?
Thanks

since I in the router "UPnP" allowed , it works for me (Onkyo TX 8050)
( test it, now works it no more ..... He sees him, NAS works, PopCorn A 100 works no more Onkyo ?,strange )

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem with my Onkyo TX-NR609!
Have you solved this issue?
BubbleUPnP has no problems streaming to my Medion WLAN-radio and other devices, only streaming to my Onkyo-receiver fails.
Best regards

tried different codec songs?

Yes, MP3 and AAC, while AAC fails with every device!
I found the "Onkyo Remote"-app on Google Play, and with this app streaming is as easy as it should be.
So no idea, why it won't work with BubbleUPnP...

It's not about codecs and not about BubbleUPnP The general problem is that the Samsung Note doesn't recognize the Onkyo as a DLNA/UPNP device. Allshare doesn't even see it. It's also Rom independent - same prob with Stock as with CM10. Really a shame. Thank god I own a WD TV Live

Okay, this is really a shame for Samsung!
Here you can find the Onkyo-app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...Remote&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
Using it, streaming works like a charm.

actually dnla implementation is up to manufacturers. Then it could very well be wrong on onkyos side.
I guess another standard missing the boat. Just like java.

Hi,
just for info, Bubble UPNP works fine with my Onkyo TX-NR616.
Concering "Transport is locked (Code: 705)"... I need to select NET -> DNLA manually (e.g. using the Remote or Onkyo App) before using Bubble UPNP. But then all is working as expected. However, no gapless support.
Best regards

Thank you so much for that tip. I spent all night last night trying to find the solution, even trying to contact the developer. I have 2 onkyos TX-NR708 in family room and TX-NR818 in theater. Problem was showing on the 708 your tip worked like a charm. Mine actually showed Bubble Upnp in the display. Thank you again.

Moto X has the same error 705 for bubbleUpnp (free app)

Doesn't work for on ics though (presumably due to lack of Flash support - has this been reinstated in JB?) - media support installation says "file corrupted". But I seem to have achieved the same functionality with the TVCatchUp app (via Play) for live streaming (which seems to work fine).

well all i can say its a great phone for the price only apps not working is skygo but then again its not just this phone its not working on loads of phones ..only other down fall is you cant put apps on the sd card but you can if you root it but 8 gig is a lot of space for apps so no big deal but like need for speed is like 1.84 gig so you can soon take up the space but how many games do you need to play at time i do think 8 gig is ok but i do think it was a mistake not to allow transfer to sd card ..i have a 32 gig card so plenty of room for films pics music and i have 100 games on stand by on it for when i need to install ...what i will say is this phone is fast no lag internet is way fast did a test with a friend with iphone 5 and also luma 800 and yes the razr i 1 every time lumia 800 was not far behind and yes iphone 5 was last every time on the same net work the iphone was at least 3 to 4 sec behind loading pages with the lumia about 1 sec if that ..camera not great in low light but great outside has played all games so far again with no lag battery life great i can go a hole day with using it a lot ..thats with great setting like it turns of wifi when you leave home and when i get back it knows im home and turns on wifi so save on battery life :laugh:

this worked a treat - installed straight away and worked!!!!

Looks like iplayer has finally been updated as its now working on my stock Razri.

Lyrics not showing up in music player

Lyrics not showing up in music player. When i tried the same mp3 in ipod touch, I can see the lyrics. anybody facing the same issue?:crying:

I tell you you're not the only one... I'm not sure about this but seems like HTC One is slow on fetching lyrics depending on the country your in.

same, however sometimes when I do get the lyrics, it ends up being the wrong one.

Consider yourself lucky then... Had 170+ mp3 here on my phone for over a month now have yet to see any lyrics showing up eversince

This has nothing to do with the HTC One. It has to do with the very limited GraceNote Media database. I have only found a few albums that have lyrics. And sometimes only two or three songs on the album have them.

A few others that probably no one knows: some songs by Fog '10th Ave Freakout' album, I think 5 out of 13 songs, and the last 2 songs on the 'For Hero: For Fool' album by Subtle.

Ok, I downloaded the album, played the same song you show (Yet Again), and nothing happens.
It looks like It depends on the country you are. (I'm from Santiago, Chile).
Going to try using some kind of VPN, and try again.

Same with me. Download Grizzly Bear - 'Sheilds' and I have no lyrics. I am from Czech Republic

Could you by chance share the exact same mp3 you had lyrics on? I'm not sure but maybe it's on the meta tags or whatever but having the actual file should solve some of the mysteries of this lyrics thingy.

[CHROME-EXTENSION] Thundercast

I'm writing an extension to send various contents from the web to the chromecast. If you are brave enough you can give it a try.
Update 0.8 (the new version is taking shape)
Major changes: new name. : )
Minor changes: the UI is more conventional but is the result of the code simplification and allows avoiding some operations, like javascript injections.
To install the extension you have to drag and drop the crx file in the extensions tab (chrome://extensions)
If you use the stable channel of chrome, google will likely block the extension soon after the first restart of the browser. In that case, to use it further, I suggest installing chrome canary.
dropbox link: goo.gl/kgatdZ

What does it do more than google cast?

Basically it forces the use of the cast API so your pc won’t act as the server of the video but only as the remote controller, mimic the behavior of youtube in websites that don’t support chromecast.

Does that have any advantages? I notice that often, casting the entire tab of a screen playing a video makes it tough on my Chromecast whereas the Youtube implementation works pretty smoothly. Does using your version make it smoother?

It should, as the extension is telling Chromecast to go grab the media directly, rather than your PC trying to encode from the screen and send the (re)encoded video to Chromecast.

Did anyone try it ?

its working good
but i also have to have the cc extensionn running to cast directly to cc
would be nice if that is automatic

I tried at yify.tv, doesn't work, extension always fail to transfer source to chromecast with the red ! sign on the extension icon.

Unfortunately you’re right, I’ve never had to deal with video urls like theirs. There are many things that need to be improved, i hope to find the time

While thundercast is enabled you should see a big, ugly button over the videos. It will cast the video if chromecast support its format, otherwise you can always download it.
Btw, i'm rewriting the extension from scratch and will be very different. My intention is to release it in the store, but it's not going to happen soon.
Maybe this thread can be closed, but i have a thing for the user of xda i'd like to share when the new version is ready.
Ps: sorry i didn't get (or i lost) the notification from the forum

While thundercast is enabled you should see a big, ugly button over the videos. It will cast the video if chromecast support its format, otherwise you can always download it.

I'm liking the current version already. Looking forward to what you cook up in the revamp!

This has become one of my favourite extensions. Looking forward to try out when I get home. Any chance to release it to the store, it is really painful to come back here and update manually every time a new version is out or if I want to install it on my other devices

This version seem fantastic. I hope it reduce the lag that official chromecast extension give in flash video on chrome.
I try to use it.

About the store, I haven’t decided yet. There are some (few) things I want to improve before but I'm having issues with the chromecast. It has such a poor wifi reception I have to carefully position the tv to get it work and, in these days, with the heat, things seem even worse. It’s becoming a bit frustrating…

An HDMI extension (if the included one isn't sufficient) can do wonders for getting Chromecast away from the TV and into a better reception zone. Even a 3-foot (1-meter) cable can help tremendously. TVs are very bad with signal reflection and interference.

Is live streaming websites supported by this extension? I tried to use it with livestation no luck
Also tried it with file drive and did not see cast icon

Where do we get this extension
WHere do we download this extension, I do not find it on the Chrome Extension site???
