I have found the Humax HDR FOX T2 to be particularly difficult to use with UPnP. It often failed to find the files, or if it did wouldn't play them properly (I mostly tried with windows systems such as tversity and WMP). I suspect that, like a number of such devices, it doesn't follow the standards too well, or only accepts a limited subset of codecs.

I want to be able to run video files on the Panasonic TV that are stored on my Ubuntu machine. I have them linked via a broadband router.

I have installed Rygel because I thought I needed a DNLA device. After installing rygel the network has been found by the Humax HDR-FOX T2.


When I try to go into the network via the Humax to look at the recordings available on the ubuntu 12.041 machine no server is found.

If I type rygel into the terminal window of ubuntu I get:

robins@robins-EP35-DS3L:~$ rygel

** (rygel:8304): CRITICAL **: gst_video_decoder_allocate_output_frame: assertion `frame->output_buffer == NULL' failed
MediaExport-Message: 'file:///media/audio_visual/Video' harvested


I assume I have to stream the video from Ubuntu to the panasonic tv, but I do not know how to do it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Robin
