Just install tvhguide on Android, enter ip address and everything should be fine.

I haven't the option "Transcoding" in version 3.9.357. How do you get that option?

This is a little bit strange. When I installed the ready package I get this options in configuration:

But when I'm build from source with default config file I get this option:

Wouldn't it be same options independent if you build by your self or download pre-compiled package?

And how now take advantage of this option transcoding?

Now I also have the transcoding option, but it doesn't seem that anything happen when it's checked. I can't see any different in the bandwidth when using Tvhguide client.

When I use the internal player in TVHGuide it works ok, but if I try to use external player like bsplayer or vlc player it doesn't work. Are you using an externla player?

When i try to play with internal player in TVHGuide i have not play. Im waiting and waitin and nothing. In WBGUI i see in status that my phone android try play but i have an error 1 and 2 and 3 in columns... On tablet is the same. MY phone is Galaxy S3 and Tablet Galaxy Tab3. Input and output KB is very small. On BSplayer it works ok but ii have transcoding.

I had similar problem with my Galaxy S2, Galaxy S3 and LG G2, but with my Nexus 5 the internal player works. So it seems that Samsung and LG had made some changes in the Stage fraight player in Android so that the transcoding doesn't work correct.

When I choose media container "MPEG TS" on the LG G2 it works ok, but it takes about 30-60 seconds before I get any picture and sound.
