APPENDIX C: Troubleshooting



Problem:

Web interface does not come up

-Is the Ethernet cable plugged in to the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS solidly (do you see the link light)?
-Do the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS IP address and the PC IP address have the same first two values (or, if

netmask is set to 255.255.255.0, the same first three values)?

-Do the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS and the PC have the same netmask? (Default value is 255.255.0.0)

-You can check the netmask of the PC by typing ifconfig in Linux.

-Are all firewalls on the network turned off?

-Try connecting the PC directly to the board without any routers etc.

-Can the PC and target board see each other on the network?

-Try pinging the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS IP address from the PC.

-Try pinging the PC from the Z3-DM8107-SDI2-RPS.



Problem:

Do not see video in VLC (UDP)

-Does the IP address set in “Dest Address” equal the IP address of the PC running VLC?

-Does the port number in “Dest Port” equal the value entered in the URL for VLC?

-Is the PC fast enough for 1080p decode on VLC?

-Does the PC have enough DDR to handle 1080p decode on VLC?

-Is VLC version 1.1x or later?



Problem:

Do not see video in VLC (RTP)

-If using an SDP file, is the correct SDP file (z3-dm8107.sdp) being used and “Dest Port” set to 5004?

-If using the RTSP URL, is the version of VLC version 2.1.5 or newer?
