VLC vod stream cannot receive by Android device

[charlielj88]

Hi all,

I want to create a vod stream from vlc server and play this vod stream in my Android device.

What I have achieved so far is that vod stream is successfully created (can be played in an vlc client). However, my Android device simply cannot identify and play this stream. I use both MediaPlayer and VideoView class to play this vod stream, but fails. Then I try to play a VLC broadcast live stream and both classes works. The protocol I use for both vod and broadcast streaming is rtsp.

Therefore, I doubt there may be some differences between the vod and broadcast in terms of receiving and controlling, though both use rtsp. Sorry I am quite new to vod stream in VLC, and how can I receive and control this vod stream once it is created?

Hope some ppl could clarify on this. Many thanks!

Charlie

By the way, for broadcast, I use vlc 1.1.4 in Win7 while for vod, I use vlc 0.8.6 in Ubuntu, it that a possible source of this problem?
