@tataniko i tested a build with ffmpeg 4.4 and libmpv 3.3.1
ftp starts much faster now (i dont know how fast was in pplay 2.1 but i think is nearly the same)

Issue was probably with ffmpeg bundled with current libnx!

 

[proconsule54]

Release Edit:

https://github.com/proconsule/pplay/releases/tag/v3.5-fork-v1

you will find a v1 (the previous release build with bundled libmpv and ffmpeg from libnx)
and a v1.1 (using newer libmpv and ffmpeg)

report bugs and diff on both release.
from now on i will use the newest libraries insead of the bundled ones if no major bugs come out.

for @tataniko try the v1.1 that probably is what you are looking for a long time

We tested your fork v1.1 for FTP, but it's slow, approximately 2 minutes to start.
Pplay 2.1 reacts almost immediately in FTP, approximately 2 seconds to start.

Keep up the good work @proconsule54, you help many people here & thank you.

K, strange 2 minutes, i opened ftp links in about 12 secs.
Atmo version and FW version please

I tested it on Atmoshpere 1.0.0 and FW 12.10

Release
https://github.com/proconsule/pplay/releases/tag/v3.5-fork-v2

Changelog:

• Added Info Menu (for showing libmpv and ffmpeg versions)
• small cleanup on Enigma2 Interface memory allocation

Only a small addition but it comes useful for debugging
libmpv is flagged as dirty cause i have to manually patch it to get it works.

@proconsule54

We tested on AMS 1.1.1 with latest firmware 13.0.0 - FTP 2 minutes response time (Pplay3.5).
We tested on AMS 1.1.1 with low firmware 1.0.0-2.3 - FTP 12 seconds response time (Pplay3.5).
We tested on AMS 0.18.1 with firmware 11.0.1 - FTP 2 seconds response time (Pplay 2.1)

It seems, Pplay3.5 works on low firmware, but Pplay2.1 works in any firmware.

@proconsule54
We always test same HD film (Jurassic Park) with the kids for FTP speed.
It seems that, there is something between sytem & FTP response time.
Because on low firmware, your fork works like Pplay3.5 - 12 seconds FTP response time.
But on high firmware, your fork works like Pplay3.5 - 2 minutes FTP response time.

On FW 12.10 pplay 3.5 takes minutes to open, my fork took 12 sec (like on lower firmware)
(the fork differ the ffmpeg and libmpv used)

keep in mind that libnx was not updated when fw 13 came out, maybe some issue there

to find out the solution i have to gues what ffmpeg version was build in pplay 2.1 and deep check on network code to find out where the issue (with switch) is

@proconsule54 - Oh thank you, that sounds good.
Please, recompile version 2.1 with that old ffmpeg version with newest libnx.

Just one more thing, Pplay3.5 is listing the directories first & after the files in FTP, this is good behavior, but your version is mixing the directories with the files, this is strange behavior.

Thank you for your effort & keep up the good work.

Yes, https webif port is 443.

Until OP has time to finish his proper update, @connivence has fixed the latest version of pplay for the 9.x+ button inputs. He patched the binary so there's no changed source. He's the dev who was doing TinfoilMod etc, so he's trusted, but use your own judgement ofc.

@hippy dave
Thank you for sharing pplay-v2.1-900-hidfix in 2019.

That was big help for everybody, 2.1 is the best version for FTP movies. But it needs to recompile for the latest Atmosphere, unfortunately connivence is not member anymore.

I am planning to implement an m3u8 parser, is that what you want?

 

[proconsule54]

@docgold the m3u list differs from mine so regex wont work, i will fix it

 

[docgold]

If you need samples of SD, HD, 4k, in 4:2:0, 4:2:2, HDR, .. for testing purposes I can provide them.

4k is too much for switch, others format are processed by ffmpeg so they are supported well

 

[proconsule54]

@tataniko Got it. now open in 1 second (or less)
found out the problem, is ffmpeg releated.
expect a release very soon.

 

[proconsule54]
