hi f1vefour

To clarify, i installed Omxplayer and now after exiting XBian i can mirror OK and even Netflix now works with a slight video lag.

I can also run BBC iPlayer (mirrored and non mirrored) again after exiting Xbian and again when mirrored with a lag. Non mirrored does not have the lag.

I get video and audio with both.

Don't know if installing Omx also installed some missing libs but this didn't work before i did this....... unless i missed something and it would have worked before!!!

How are you getting Netflix to work? I can see rPlay from the Android Netflix app but upon trying to send to rPlay I always receive an error.

hi -
My setup is:
Xbian on rpi - beta 1.2
Netflix on iPhone5, IOS7 beta 7
rpi connected to internet - ADSL
iPhone - wifi

Followed rplay install instructions and mirroring worked straight away except for audio.

sudo apt-get update ***
sudo apt-get upgrade ***

*** As i just upgraded Xbian 1.1 to 1.2 i missed out these two commands

sudo apt-get install libao-dev avahi-utils libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev libva-dev
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get install youtube-dl
sudo youtube-dl --update

reboot

sudo youtube-dl --update - yes i did it again
wget -O rplay-1.0.1-armhf.deb http://fromthe link you got in your email)
sudo dpkg -i rplay-1.0.1-armhf.deb

entered mirroring key
your IP address:7100/admin on laptop/PC

sudo apt-get install alsa-utils
sudo modprobe snd_bcm2835

fixed the audio problem and now get good video/ audio when mirroring Netflix with no apparent latency.

This time i did NOT install OMXPlayer so i guess either beta 1.2 fixed the previous issues or there were really no issues last time!

One thing i notice is that trying Chromecast from Netflix screws up rplay so don't go near it.
