DVBlast "error: couldn't writev to ... (Connection refused)"

[radiocom]

Hello smart ones.

Please help me on this one. So I want to demux an incoming MPEG-TS RTP stream to separate streams for every service.
I will begin with demuxing a single program (SID=101)
I downloaded latest DVBlast (2.0.0) from svn to be sure that I have the latest version, compiled it, made a configuration file containing:

127.0.0.1:10000 1 101

run the demultiplexing using this command:

bin/dvblast -D 239.1.1.1:5000 -C -c config.cfg

And get this on the output:

DVBlast 2.0.0-svn

Can anyone help me understand why this is happening? This connection refused is driving me crazy!
Thanks in advance.

I am not sure i understand what you mean. If you cannot help, please do not reply.

Not real clear on what all is going on, but it would appear that either port 10000 on the local PC is blocked, or nothing is listening on that port.

Then you know EXACTLY what I mean.

hech; You're suggesting radiocom is promoting a product that he's involved in?
As DVBBlast is GPL and free to download/modify - that doesn't make much sense

radiocom; I haven't used DVBBlast, but 127.0.0.1 is the virtual network interface IP address.

If you're getting 'connection refused' errors, it might be:
- there isn't any service/program listening at that port (10000) and responding properly
- the port might be blocked by you're firewall (but this is unlikely)

edit: Just found your post here. You'll probably get more responses over on the VLC forum.

#intracube
Yes, indeed, I need it binded to localhost, well I tried with computers ip address, and it gave the same results.
I have no firewall on this machine, yet.

#update, if I try to first start nc -l -u -p 10000 127.0.0.1 and then start dvblast than it doesn't display this error.

iptraf . if you stop iptraf (or reconfigure) problem will stop

[hugopet]

the idea of use the lo interface is in order to separate TS streams that came on multicast multiTS streams. if you dont this via dvbblast , when you transcode many signals of a multicast multits streams , you must to suscribe to multicast as many signals you decode.
with dvblast , you suscribe once , then decode the signals , one signal per udp stream / port , resend to the lo interface , then select one signal per stream , per ffmpeg or vlc instance.
