Hi,
I am trying to use VLC as a streaming server and client. I found online documentation http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation: ... _Streaming but the documentation is out of date. Currently, I installed the VLC version 1.0.3.
Does anyone has the updated version of the documentation?
I found this http://altair.videolan.org/~dionoea/vlc ... height=180 which is what i want to do. To have the end-user entered rtsp://123.23.21.12:5554/storewars8 as the MRL in the web browser and then it hits the VLC server in 123.23.21.12:5554 to stream storewars8 video to the end-user via web browser with VLC plugin installed. Are there any instructions on how to setup the server?
Thanks

Re: VLC as a streaming server and client
Hi,
I would like to use rtsp. I followed the vidoe on demand instructions.
Some of my questions:
1. Is this the only way to do rtsp to use VLM?
2. I issued vlc --ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --telnet-password videolan --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554. Then I issued telnet localhost 4212 and entered my password. After that, how come I can't see what I typed in the telnet session? I can't see (visually) > new Test vod enabled > setup Test input my_video.mpg when i typed it. But I know it works if i typed them correctly because i can issued vlc rtsp://localhost:5554/Test
3. When I reboot my computer, it seems like the Test vod object I created no longer exists. vlc rtsp://localhost:5554/Test is not valid when I issued again once my computer is reboot. What do I need to do so that the VLC server stills have the vod objects I created even after I reboot my computer?
4. I tried video on demand both on Windows XP and Windows vista. It works great in XP but not in Vista. I issued the same commands in telent. Howeer, in Vista, when I issued vlc rtsp://localhost:5554/Test it said it is not valid. Any thoughts?
Thanks for your help!

Re: VLC as a streaming server and client
1. No, but it is the easiest way to do VOD.
2. Sounds like a bug, you have tried putty or other telnet client?
3. I would suggest VLM
4. Open Tools -> Messages... (set Verbosity to 2) before trying to open anything, it should report possible issues.
