Hi,

first of all make sure that you are running the latest version which
currently is 0.1.22.

Could you please check if streaming over the network works without using
rygel. In your case rtsp://<insert ip>/1/9213 should show you Channel 4.

Hi,

I will check the version I'm running tonight. I've added the PPA and updated the system which found later versions of gnome-dvb-daemon.

I did try connecting to the URL directly over the network and got exactly the same result with the channel playing for only a few seconds. I did wonder if it was a name resolution issue but ruled that out after adding the server to my local DNS. I will try again with just the IP address.
