Timecode error

[alastc]

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place, please tell me where is if so.

I'm streaming and recording something at the same time, and having trouble with the file produced.

I think the key line is (line breaks added for readability:

Code: Select all

setup bg output #transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=4096,scale=1,sfilter=mosaic}:bridge-in{offset=100} :duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=ts,dst="test.mpg"} ,dst=standard{access=rtp,mux=ts,amux=ts,dst=192.168.1.2:1234}

The stream is fine, the file works in VLC, but:

• It won't open in Quicktime or Windows media player
• There is no timecode, even in VLC

I've tried a variety of options, but can't find anything that affects this, are there any timecode settings I haven't been able to find, or better options for the recording format?

I've tried transcoding the file in ffmpeg afterwards, but the audio goes horribly out of sync, and I would rather record a quicktime compatible file immediately if possible.

I have similar problem, I am recording a stream from a webcam. And I can play the produced file just in VLC player, other video players (Window Media Player, BSPlayer) play just 30 seconds of the file or not even start the video. I tried different codecs (mp1v, mp2v, mp4v, mjpg, wmv1), all with same results.
And when playing in VLC i am not able to seek to a specified time, which is quite important for me.

For streaming i use this command via telnet interface:

Code: Select all

setup test input dshow://vdev="nVidia WDM Video Capture (universal)" adev="none" output #transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=1024}:std{access=udp,dst=10.34.3.255:1001,mux=ts,sap,name="test.mpg"}

Receiving VLC just stores the stream to disk.
I use VLC 8.6d, but i have same problems with older VLC versions.

Any idea what could be wrong? Am i missing some important option? Could change of codec or encapsulation help?
