Not receiving data from pub-vrs.adsbexchange.com

Hello,

Sorry to trouble the administrators with this problem.

I'm trying to receive data from pub-vrs.adsbexchange.com into my own copy of VRS, but the connection status is showing as 'Connecting' with no messages being received.

I have no problems using this in my home in the U.K, but I've just arrived at a hotel at Fort Lauderdale airport and I'm wondering if it is because of a different I.P address being used perhaps. My port is set to 32010.

If it involves too much hassle to enable myself to receive the data, then no worries.

Thanks for any help.

James

 

Okay, thanks MDA, that's a shame. I guess I'm on a permitted list for my home address in London at least anyway, which is good.

Thanks for your help.

 

Hi MDA, are ADSBx working on a fix to allow access to pub-vrs?
I was viewing the below radar but now it not so good because its losts it feed from ADSBx.
Would you be so kind to add this below radar to your permitted list run by Erwin Kooij.
Thank you

Thanks MDA for your reply above.
I did not realize their was a problem between Erwin and ADSBx.
Its a pity because i did enjoy viewing traffic on his website.

 

MDA this ADSBx site is good but is their a way to get the callsigns showing on all the flights?
See attachment showing flights without callsigns
Also is their a way i can update ADSBx datebase to show B77W for B777-300ER and B77L for B777-200LR instead of B773 and B772?

 

uhh .. I have no idea how VRS database works. Maybe we can do that ... maybe we can't ...

 

Hi James. Would you be able to connect your https://global.adsbexchange.com feed to https://customglobal.adsbexchange.com as this custom site shows the callsigns but does not have MLAT. See Database edits page 26 for diagrams.
Also It would be nice if the B777-300ER and B777-200LR aircraft's could show B77W and B77L instead of B773 and B772.
If their is anything i can do regarding updating the aircraft database to show B77W and B77L please let me know.
Thanks

It's due to how VRS shuttles the data. Callsigns take a while to update when a new cloud VM spins up. Nothing I can do about it.

 

Hi James, could you possibly trial the pub-vrs feed from https://global.adsbexchange.com to https://customglobal.adsbexchange.com?
All the callsigns show on the customglobal at present but no MLAT.
If the trial is successful i.e.MLAT is added and callsigns remain showing, then hopefully you can keep the pub-vrs feed to customglobal permanent.
Thank you

You bitch and moan constantly ...

What are you talking about ... the custom-global feed is merged into all the ingest servers and displayed on global map ui.

You need to understand what I'm saying -- it's VRS -- there are 100 cloud VMs that run that global map, for whatever shitty design choice VRS has issues forwarding the call signs, it takes time to catch up.

If you don't like don't like then fix it in VRS, contact the dev, or don't use ADSBx.

I've told you this multiple times before. And I'm sure you are over there complaining to Andrew as well.

I'M NOT "TRIALING" A DAMN THING FOR YOU.

Even if I wanted to. It can't send the entire global feed to the single instance, plus all the custom feed bullshit that is the one custom feeder server. VRS can't handle it. It's shit for the amount of data that stream is.

LET ME BE CLEAR. IT CAN'T HANDLE IT.

STOP ASKING.

Who gives a good god damn about a few call signs. It will fix itself - stop thinking you know how ADSBx works when it has to serve 30,000 concurrent users.

If I had the time to dump this flaming dumpster fire that is VRS, I would. Then you'd be bitching and moaning because it isn't the same as VRS.

 

After half a dozen emails back and forth. Kooij poo wants data but refuses to feed ADSBx.

From James

ADSBexchange has no need for FlightAware or FlightRadar24 or whoever filtered blocked and obfuscated data.

VRS feeds are unreliable, laggy, and the data is mostly bad.

From Kooij poo

But i work with virtualradarserver

From James

Do I give a shit? No.

Do you understand that FlightAware data is fucking garbage? No.

So, I don't care what you do. Feed from Pi's or piss off.

You are fine feeding other sites and supporting commercial projects the sell your data and filter out interesting things.

Do they give you a feed for VRS? No.
Do they do anything but give you fake 'enterprise' dashboard? No.

You want data from ADSBx, but you won't feed ADSBx with good data.

So I say. Fuck you.

No data for you!

Then Kooij poo threatened to post my email on 'every forum' unless I gave him data. To which I replied, "you do that" and additionally "fuck you".

 

Do we need to update these on the VRS database? I have to look at that sooner than later anyway.

I assume VRS relates an aircraft type to either reg or icao hex ... experience with VRS in other aspects tells me there's some other nonsensical way it's done that is over complex.
