Troubleshooting

If you have issues such as slow intermittent or no video:

1. Check network requirements
2. Run the tests described in this section
3. Go to Test Results Analysis

Checking Port 1935

1. Open a device.
2. From the more link in the Link Menu Bar click Settings.
3. From the Streaming tab select Settings.
   
   
4. Ensure Default settings is selected (port 1935 )
5. From the Streaming tab select Connections.
6. Check that the the engine and device connections are selected as Default (RTMP in the URL).
   
   
   

 If RTMPT  is shown in the URL,the RTMP port 1935 is probably blocked. If this port is not active the video signal
is displayed via port 80, the slower standard communications port.This will affect video frame and update rates.

Bandwidth

1. From the Speed Test link in Settings/Streaming click go to test and run the network test, once for the engine and once for the device streaming server connection.
2. If prompted to update your client Java (TM) plugin ,follow the onscreen installation instructions.

   

 Test Result Analysis

The tests described in the previous section can be analysed and compared to the contents of the table shown below:

Parameter  Good Results       Intermediate         Poor ResultsLatency (ms)
0-50100-300>400Packet loss (%)
0-23-5  >5  Bandwidth (Mbps)0.4000.150<0.150    

The above reference matrix table is for guidance only (single device).
Factors such as number of users for example, affect test results.

 Note:Test parameters combine to impact overall results. 

Below is a condensed sample matrix that shows how individual test results can combine to impact on the overall results in differing test scenarios

       Enterprise customers that require the URL addresses for testing  Mobile cloud streaming servers can obtain
        them by contacting support.
