I'm working on writing a plugin for MythTV that works as a squeezeboxserver client (much like softsqueeze), using ffmpeg as the decoding engine. I'm having a hard time getting a stream from the server that works for ffmpeg and I'm hoping someone can give me some information.
I direct an http request to the squeezeboxserver for the audio in the format of http://<serveraddr>:9000/stream.mp3?player=<player mac addr> (this request format is received from the server as part of the client/server communications). Ffmpeg complains that what it gets back does not contain any header information. The error messages are: [mp3 @ 0x7fb26c039b00] Could not find codec parameters (Audio: mp3, 0 channels, s16) [mp3 @ 0x7fb26c039b00] Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate It looks like the server may be sending header information without the number of channels described properly. Is anyone aware of which perl module in the server creates the mp3 header? And does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions on this problem?
