Also if I try opening MP4Client itself, I get the following message:
alkhuhsm@dev-NW504:~$ MP4Client

Is the above normal standard?
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04
MP4Box:
MP4Box - GPAC version 0.5.1-DEV-rev5290
GPAC Copyright (c) Telecom ParisTech 2000-2012
GPAC Configuration:
Features: GPAC_HAS_SSL GPAC_DISABLE_3D
MP4Client:
MP4Client 0.5.1-DEV-rev 5290
I would also like to stream this MPD to another PC, what is the best way to do that
Pls find the DASH content and file created by MP4Box
I also seem to have a problem when trying to playback from a normal mp4 file
This is what I get
MP4Client - GPAC command line player - version 0.5.1-DEV-rev5290

This works fine here, are you sure of your MP4Client setup? Could you post the output of ./configure
This is the output from ./configure

seems correct for FFMPG, but you miss the AAC decoder (libfaad).
For your video problem, have you tried removing the .gpacrc file and relaunch MP4Client ?
I added the missing decoder however still semm to have a problem.

I added a screen shot of the MP4Client window that pops up.
have you removed the .gpacrc ?
Jean thanks for your swift reply.
Is the .gpacrc the gpac configure file, if so yes I removed it and relaunched MP4Client however I'm still getting the same problem as before.
Last edit: Haitham 2014-07-16
you still have the line complaininging about no video decoder for AVC ? In this case you maye have an issue with your FFMPEG setup. Do you have the module gf_ffmpeg in the gpac/bin/gcc directory ?
