Create 3gp Stream

[guruk]

Hi,
how can i create a 3gp Stream with VLC ( command line code is also ok)

It would be great with a small sample in which I see where to change to source file (avi) and give the IP and 3gp Name.
And with what Parameter I would request that stream from my browser.

I was reading a lot that its possible to create a 3gp Stream on the fly from a source, but really there is so much confusing
infos, finaly i am still at the beginning

Thanks for your help

Yes, but what codec do you want in it?

hi...

thanks a lot


it have to work with the G1 Android.
I guest h264 is good

if you place some optional parameters in it, so i can play around, its fine.
like width and heigh... you know

also I have the Info: Mediaplayer can only play "progressive streamable contents"

Thanks again!!

Hi,

so lets say I have my video in

c:\movie\bold.avi
and I like to make a 3gp Stream that I can reach via:
rtsp://192.168.0.179:554/video.3gp

how would be the commandline? With the Example i got (with this vlc:quit at the end) my vlc always say: "vlc can not read file vlc:quit"

vlc c:\movie\bold.avi --sout-transcode-fps 15 --sout '#transcode{width=480,height=320],venc=x264,vcodec=x264,vb=300], scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=44100,channels=2,samplerate=22100}:rtp{dst=192.168.0.179,port=554, port-video=10000,sdp=file://video.sdp}' vlc:quit

I am quit sure my commandline is wrong.. but for that I hope you know how to do .

Thanks a lot
Chris

just to make it clear. I am using vlc 0.9.8a on windows vista.

now i get a http stream working with (i just copied the generated string from vlc gui)

vlc c:\Downloads\Bolt.DVDSCR.XViD-mVs\bold.avi :sout=#transcode{vcodec=theo,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=vorb,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=192.168.0.179:8080}}

when i open a second VLC and open http://192.168.0.179:8080 i get this http stream.. Great!!

BUT when I say stream with rtsp... and i open my second VLC with rtsp://192.168.0.179:1234 i just get "can not open rtsp://192.168.0.179"
thats my commandline:

vlc c:\Downloads\Bolt.DVDSCR.XVID-mVS\bold.avi
:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=display,dst=rtp{dst=192.168.0.179,mux=mp4,port=1234,port-audio=1234,port-video=1234}}

anyhow.. i would need:
audio: codec mp4a - 2 channels - 32000hz
video stream1 mp4v

and available like: rtsp://192.168.0.179:1234/live.3gp

hope you can help

thanks

It is vlc://quit on 0.9.x and newer versions. venc=x264,vcodec=x264 won't work in 0.9.8a because x264 encoding is broken. ab=44100,samplerate=22100 44100 for audio bitrate prolly isn't what you want and 22100 for samplerate should be 22050?

And Tools -> Messages... (set Verbosity to 2) before streaming should show better error messages.

Hi, thanks for info.. any how to create a working rtsp stream in commandline is still not working.

Is it possible for you to make me a working commandline that I just copy and paste to test for vlc 0.9.x
so i just can open a second vlc and try to catch this stream with: rtsp://192.168.0.179:1234/live.3gp

just with a mp4a codec... if i have a working demo from you i can play with the params (please include in the demo already working params... not - here audio- or here -video sample rate-- just something copy and paste...

would be great help

thanks chris

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,mux=ts,port=1234}}
that should start the streaming.

Thanks for your answer.

ok i did: vlc c:\movies\mymovie.avi :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,mux=ts,port=1234}}

and VLC starts to do something.
When I look in stats I see its working

But when I open a second vlc with rtsp://127.0.0.1:1234 on my same machine... it does not open anything (with http streaming it works always like this)

so and now ?
