[Elphel-support] strreaming problem...

[Carlos Padial]

the pc is connected  over a cable to the router, and also the camera.

in the ttylog i get no outputs when the stream stops...

in the telnet session one time i get this message, but no longer repeats...

Password:
[root at Elphel353 /root]1068# killall -9 str
[root at Elphel353 /root]1068# /usr/local/bin/str
STATE_DISCONNECT; fd == 10; revents == 25

After that using this command flavio suggest:
mplayer rtsp://192.168.0.9:554 -vo x11 -vf scale=480:320

for  a while it remains with crashes (with no report)
and after that i managed to stream 1920x1088 24.995fps 136K
for several minutes the live preview works fine... then crashes and
need to restart.

just when mplayer crashes, top is updated and all process disapear
except a few ones...

  751     1 root     S     4136  10%   0% /usr/local/sbin/autoexposure

sometimes after that i need to wait some minutes, and the camera
responds again, but after that i need to reboot...

sometimes i can acces telnet when the camera crashes, i kill str and
run it again, but almost everytime it is not possible as telnet gets
freezed.

640x480 works always and full window works for 30-60 seconds...

When connected directly to the pc (without router), stream least a
little more time, but no other changes...
