Transcoding adaptive stream results in unwatchable low quality

[troykelly]

Hi,

When transcoding an adaptive logic stream, the transcoded "copy" is at the lowest possible quality (images below).

I am clearly missing something in the configuration.

Starting VLC with

Code: Select all

VLC_ADAPTIVE_WIDTH=1280 VLC_ADAPTIVE_HEIGHT=720 VLC_ADAPTIVE_BITRATE=2048 VLC_ADAPTIVE_LOGIC=highest PASSWORD=supersecure PORT=9999 /usr/bin/vlc -I telnet --telnet-password=${PASSWORD} --telnet-port=${PORT} --drop-late-frames --skip-frames --play-and-exit --no-daemon --adaptive-logic=${VLC_ADAPTIVE_LOGIC} --adaptive-maxwidth=${VLC_ADAPTIVE_WIDTH} --adaptive-maxheight=${VLC_ADAPTIVE_HEIGHT} --adaptive-bw=${VLC_ADAPTIVE_BITRATE} --vlm-conf=/vlc/stream.vlm

Code: Select all

del all new stream broadcast enabled setup stream option network-caching=1000 setup stream input "https://example.com/stream" loop setup stream output #transcode{venc=x264{preset=ultrafast},vcodec=h264,threads=4,vb=1000}:duplicate{dst='rtp{access=udp,mux=ts,ttl=15,dst=234.0.1.1,port=1234,sdp=sap://,group="News",name="Interesting News"}'} control stream play

VLC_ADAPTIVE_LOGIC=highest

without seeing the ladder, we can't tell
