Flash Video (FLV) stream output

[MrPlexX]

(Sorry that i post it twice. i just saw this drawer today. I posted already in "VLC stream-output (sout)"...)

I would realy appreciate if you set the priority for the FLV sout higher. I would like to convert a incoming signal into a flash stream for the website using the Flash Video Player (from Jeroen Wijering).

Use Revision: 18863 or later of VLC

Use this kind of command-line:
./vlc --sout
"#transcode{vcodec=FLV1,acodec=mp3,sameplerate=44100}:std{access=http{mime=video/x-flv},mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=
0.0.0.0:8080/stream.flv}" ~/media/aladin.avi --loop -vvv --color -I dummy

Wow! Awesome news! Where can I get rev. 18863 or later compiled for Windows? I have 0.8.6a but it seems like it can't transcode to FLV.

Nightlies.videolan.org but those are highly unstable !

[supersaw]

Cool! Thank you for your fast reply!

How can I compile VLC with FFmpeg for Windows? I still can't transcode to FLV.

Use a Nightly in one day or two !

Any news about this?
Using 0.9 windows nightly build , yesterday downloaded, I did some tests but seems it does not work yet. Sometimes VLC crash due to libffmpeg, sometimes it seems get up and running but no stream is readable.

My sample command line:

"C:\Programmi\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" http://<source>:1234 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=FLV1,acodec=mp3,sameplerate=44100}:std{access=http{mime=video/x-flv},mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=0.0.0.0:1234/stream.flv}

Hi,

Has anyone measured the latency (delay) when streaming FLV from a video camera input to a client running latest version of the flash player?

I am trying to see if flv streaming may be a better alternative to the div3 encoding I am using to stream to windows media player, which has a latency on the client between 2-5 seconds at best.

Thanks.
