[Q] internet streaming on wildfire cuts out after 5 minutes - Wildfire General

I don't know if there is a fault with the htc wildfire or my Cyanogenmod 6.1 firmware but any streaming of live video freezes after about 5 minutes. Has anyone else come across the same problem? It's almost like a full buffer or out of available memory error. The video stream can be restarted no problems. This seems to be with the wi-fi and not the 3g. I am using a Netgear Wireless-G router WGR614v9 on virgin media.
Indeed Virgin media may be resetting the wi-fi connection causing the video to stop.

same here, my phone freezes when I stream and I'd have to take out the batteries to restart my phone

Real video streaming over WIFI?

Finally I managed to make Real player working, following the instructions on this link www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=223297&st=0
Everything works just fine when I stream video over 3G network but when I try the same same over WIFI it just tries for 30 seconds and ends up with the message "Response or data from server timed out" and that is it. WIFI is working normally everywhere else in any of the apps that require the Net.
Anybody has a clue?
Sorry if this has been discussed before, I searched the forum but nothing came out...
Using JJ with latest ROM...
OK, let me rephrase it… Can anybody use Real player to stream video or audio using WIFI connection?
I real player all around my house to stream audio over wifi so i can listen to music.
I cant get it to work on 3g as it gives a timeout error.

Thanks for the reply.
You have, exactly, the opposite situation.
I prefer to have it over WIFI rather then 3G since it takes a lot of bandwidth and I have contract of only 200 Mb per month.
Now I am even more confused than before…

Streaming Audio keeps dropping out

Hi All,
I have been trying all day to get streaming audio (Shoutcast) to work using various programs (GSPlayer, MortPlayer, Conduits Pocket Player), and all with the same result.
Using a 32 kbs stream to test, the stream consistently drops out after about 3.5 minutes of playing, and has to rebuffer all over again from scratch. This happened with every program I've tested. I wasn't able to test TCPMP, because every time I try to open a .pls file with that program, I get a "Could not open URL" message.
Also, my internet connection is set up to use a proxy server. I don't know if that makes a difference, since I am able to play the stream in the first place.
I am doing these tests at my house where I have a 4-bar EDGE connection, so I know that the signal strength is not (or should not be) an issue here.
Is it possible that, while streaming, the main memory gets filled up with the streaming audio file? I don't yet have a mini SD card (plan to get one soon). I don't know if that would make a difference. Even if it would, maybe there is a registry setting that would force the streaming audio program to cache temp stuff to the SD card instead of main memory (?)
If anyone reading this uses streaming audio on their Wizard using a GPRS/EDGE connection, what program you are using, and also what settings/tweaks have you made which might help me?
Thanks!
Sounds like the proxy to me. Using Tmobile? I believe if you use the cheap plan with the proxy settings, it restricts the maximum amount of data per session.
Yes, I do have T-Mobile and also the cheaper plan that uses a proxy. *sigh* ... Ah well, I can always put the .pls track on "repeat" so that it rebuffers automatically after its 3.5 minutes are up. This is using a 32 kbs stream, so that means with a higher quality (96 kbs) I only would get about 1.5 minutes or so before it drops out. After many tests using many different streams, the amount of time before a dropout seems to be pretty consistent based on the stream quality.
Just curious though, you said that the maximum amount of data "per session" is limited, yet I do not have to reconnect the GPRS/EDGE when the streaming audio drops out, I only have to rebuffer the stream. (?)
i have the exact same problem. but im using their 29.99 plan and im not even using a proxy. i get 4 bars of edge. but when i stream shoutcasts on gsplayer, the connection drops repeatedly and has to buffer all over again. its really annoying. hope anyone has a solution to this. i hate staying in one place around a wifi connection to stream radio. i want it to work everywhere i go. does this happen on 3g networks by any chance? T-mobile here in the u.s need to hurry up with their 3g networks.
same problem here trying to use PocketXM and WMP on Cingular Edge with the unlimited plan. under 5 min of stream before it has to re-buffer. it really makes the streaming worthless (does it to video too) if someone knows how to fix this, ill write you a nice thank you card!

Streaming divx-xvid through network

Hi i just wanted to find out if there are otehrs who do this and have difficultys using coreplayer as the player i try to play say a dvd rip through my network from a computer which is wired in to the router and with good connection through the phone to my router,
But for some reason every 10-60 secs it slightly jams and displays the loading sighn now is this down to the mobile not having the wifi capablitys oris it down to my router or is it the way my core player is setup to run,
I have tryed messing around with the settings even tryed playing around with the routers rates to but it seems it just loves to jam even though when the video is running it runs really really smooth,
My connection states im connected at 54G so id like to see if any one has had these issues and worked out how to solve this,

RTSP Streaming Issues on EB13? Bitrate getting capped

Just upgraded (update.zip) Epic 4g to Froyo and have started having bitrate capping issues where the stream rate caps out at 375k. I am using a Monsoon Vulkano app streaming live TV over 3G. Before the update (on Android 2.1) I could get steady rates of 1.0-1.5k and it was a great picture.
The first time I started the app after the upgrade it was getting a fast bitrate but the video kept stopping because the app kept "optimizing". I thought it was an app issue.
I tried to test other app versions…. reinstalled 1.0.70 from the market, tried 1.0.54 and 1.064 and 1.0702T. Also tried restoring the app from my pre-upgrade backup. All versions have the same issue. I previously re-set the Sprint RTSP proxy to 0's to avoid the possibility of a proxy issue.
I thought it might be the 3G connection I also tried the 4g connection but same issue.
This issue wasn't present until I upgraded Android.
Anyone else having RTSP or other streaming issues after upgrading to EB13?
I've been having difficulty streaming youtube videos, even while on wifi. The stream will be perfect, then will buffer for 15 seconds before playing again. My wifi is a 10 Mbps connection so there's no reason for it to buffer
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791156
Thanks. I've already de-proxied my phone though. Still having issues.
EB13 is hit and miss. GPS fixed, Streaming issues. Install to SD Card, Camera Issues.

[Q] SM-G901F Pinning Albums & Playback Google Play Music over WiFi terribly slow

Hi,
long story short - downloading (pinning) and playback in Google Play Music is terribly slow using my Home WiFi (>2 hrs downloading a complete album, playback takes minutes to even start a track)
Using other Wifi networks (work / cafe) both work flawless. Turning off WiFi and using Mobile Networks at home instead playback and downloading are working properly again.
Cross testing with my other devices (IPhone 5C & Nexus 7 2012 with Lollipop) on them Google Play Music works without problems. Downloading (pinning) and normal playback are fine.
Using the browser (chrome) an other apps on the Galaxy S5+ works without problems. Google Play Movies (even if there is more data does start approximately within 10 seconds)
Is it possibe that my Galaxy S5+ has some compatibility issues with my Router (Fritz!Box 6340)?
Does anybody know about such a behaviour : Google Play music is slow in specific Wifi networks / working normal in Mobile Networks/ other WiFi networks?
It would be great if someone could help me resolve this issue.
Many thanks in advance!
