[SOLVED] Any way to set one of the HDMI steams to 60 fps?

[BlueSky]

The page at https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/IPTV_Encode ... ure_Device mentions the TBS2603, and one of the things they say on that page is...

Dealing with 720p60 content.... After some detective work, and reading the specs on the main encoder chip used in the devices listed, I discovered that these devices will support 720p60, and even 1080p60 if we shut down all other streams, however the GUI limits you to 30 FPS . Based on some experiments, I found an undocumented web API that will let me change the frame rate on the encoder interfaces to 60fps. These changes to the encoder configuration can be automated in a script or manually executed manually in your browser.

I do not have a video source to test 1080p at 60fps, but the 720p60 sources I have tested worked very well and delivered great video quality.

And then further down on the same page it says...

To set the older encoders to 60 fps, you will need to leverage an undocumented API. Here's an example

For 60 fps the Main stream:
http://YourEncoderIP/set_codec?type=hdmi&input_fps=60 Followed by an encoder reboot
or .....
For the 60 fps Secondary stream:
http://YourEncoderIP/set_codec?type=hdm ... put_fps=60 Followed by an encoder reboot
To reboot the encoder you can use the following web API -- http://YourEncoderIP/reboot -- or use the normal web menus

This 60fps work around should only be applied to one channel at a time, and needs to be done after your done editing the basic configuration in the web GUI.

However when I try that all I get is a "404 Not Found - The requested URL was not found" error. I would really like to be able to do this if there is some way to do it, so I just wondered if there is some alternative way to set the frame rate to 60fps on one of the streams on a TBS2603.

One reason I really want to do this is that it appears I am getting a lot of choppiness on scenes that have any significant amount of motion in them, and I'd like to try the 60fps setting to see if that would help smooth out the picture. I only use one stream at a time, so the fact that it can only be applied to one stream at a time wouldn't be an issue, if I could figure out how to make it work.

Thank you for any assistance you can provide!

Hi,
THe tbs 2603 support 60fps encoding in the main stream page, not the sencond stream page.
If your encoder not support it, please check the version of it, and you can upgrade it by download the version from http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/.
PLease upgrade it bt CHORME on WINDOWS.

Thank you! I have already done the upgrade to Version：1.0.85 which is the latest according to the page at https://www.tbsiptv.com/index.php?route ... vers&id=26 and in the HDMI main tab it still shows [5-30] as the range for the Encoding frame rate. BUT, I went ahead and set it to 60 anyway, and IT WORKS!!! It's now streaming at 60fps!

Thank you again for the help, much appreciated!
