there should be several DVTS streams available.<br><br>As John said in an earlier email, make sure multicast is working (there are<br>independent ways to test that). But it looks like something in your machine<br>or local network possibly.<br>

<div class="im">hi Gurcharan, John<br> Firstly appreciated your help both , I think now the problem has taken another curve , i mean i've downgraded AccessGrid version from 3.2-Beta to AccessGrid 3.1 stable release ( also using the easyinstaller package) , and as i previously did , i've configured AccessGrid on the sender Pc to use the ExtendedVideoProducerService and again i can see my video signal fine without any problem<br>
Now at the receiver Pc , I've configured it to use the ExtendedVideoConsumerService and now it pops up the DVTS screen and I can see the stream sent by my sender pc , and did as Gurcharan said , that I clicked on each of those text lines and the DVTS window was brought up with the following problem within it :<br>

<br> Muhammad, on Monday I can put up a DVTS stream into a lobby (let<br> me know which you’re playing in, there are several these days –<br> Louisiana has their own for example) and see what’s up.<br><br> Confirm you have multicast working...<br>
<br> It’s not clear from you on the display (receiver) machine if DVTS<br> is starting, if you’re getting errors, etc. Is it starting but not<br> showing anything? Can you confirm the multicast addresses<br> involved? Are you getting “video” but it’s black for example?<br>

program at the sending side<br> let's explain my setup in more details , i've two pcs their specs<br> as follows :<br> Sender PC<br> OS : Windows XP SP3<br> AccessGrid Ver : 3.2 Beta version ( All in one Installer made by<br>
<a href="http://www.hitlabnz.org/wiki/Access_Grid_-_Easy_Installer" target="_blank">http://www.hitlabnz.org/wiki/Access_Grid_-_Easy_Installer</a>)<br> Processor: Intel core 2 duo 2.3 GHZ<br> Ram : 2 GB<br> VGA Card : Nvidia 8400 GS ( Driver installed via nvidia website )<br>
Ethernet Type : Gigabit ethernet<br> Firewire ports : External Pci card has two IEEE-1394 ports<br> Input Camera : Sony DCR-TRV285E<br> Receiver PC<br> OS : Windows XP SP3<br> AccessGrid Ver : 3.2 Beta version ( All in one Installer made by<br>

VGA Card : Nvidia 8400 GS ( Driver installed via nvidia website )<br> Ethernet type : fast ethernet<br> Now , The sender Pc is configured to Start sending Digital Video<br> via ExtendedVideoServiceProducer Option which is found in the<br>
AccessGrid node management menu , that i've included during the<br> installation of AccessGrid , And at this time i can see my video<br> signal via DVTS program<br> At the Receiver Side , I've started AccessGrid and configured It<br>
to use The ExtendedVideoConsumerService from AccessGrid node<br> Management menu by adding a new service , and at this time i can<br> not see anything , and no error messages appeared<br> does my setup lacks something that's i've fogotten to do , or does<br>
i need much horse power for my PCS ?<br> if though , what are the necessary steps to be done to be able to<br> send and/or receive dv/hdv on windows xp ?<br> Regards<br> Muhammad<br> On Sat, Jul 18, 2009 at 5:31 PM, Gurcharan S. Khanna<br>

<br> hi,<br><br> we use it constantly. can you give us more details about your<br> problem?<br><br> e.g., specific error messages?<br><br> -gurcharan<br><br><br> muhammad akl wrote:<br>
<br> hello,<br> I've just installed the recent all in one accessgrid<br> package on windows xp , the installation process went fine ,<br> and i've added the extended video services during the<br>
installation as I want to start sedning dv/hdv video via<br> firewire cameras ,<br> after i've joined the lobby , i've configured the<br> ExtendedVideoProducerService , and I can see my video fine<br>
via the DVTS program ,<br> but the problem that i'm unable to receive it via<br> ExtendedVideoConsumerService ,I've tried several times to<br> enable and disable the service with no luck<br>
Anyone had a previous experience on how to get dv/hdv<br> video on windows xp using this all in one (which includes<br> the DVTS ) ?<br> also anyone tried the enhanced vic that was made by<br>
vislab team (chris willing ) on windows xp and successed<br> to integrate it with accessgrid ?<br> <br><br><br> -- -------------------------<br> Gurcharan S. Khanna, Ph.D.<br>
