I had the same problem on Ubuntu 13.10 with nightly build from ppa:videolan/master-daily since middle of May. Now I have the solution this simple: start vlc like this (make your wrapper script) LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libavformat.so.53 vlc Details are following. The error "...

All I can add for now is that if I change sap_delay for minisapserver then timeout values change accordingly.
for example with sap_delay=15 I've got i_last_period 14949523, i_period 4960453.
Have to find the logic here...

I've added a code to show the values of dynamic timeout, if( ( p_announce->i_period_trust > 5 && i_last_period > 3 * p_announce->i_period ) ) msg_Dbg( p_sd, "hit the leg: i_last_period %llu, i_period %llu", i_last_period, p_announce->i_period ); here is the output: sap debug: hit t...

I have a list of about 90 channels multicasted in the network. When Itry to use SAP announcement instead of playlist in file, I get constantly refreshing playlist with items shuffling here and there. Search on this forum shows that the problem is not new, see http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?...

There are 2 cases, which need this: 1) single program is present in multicast stream, but program table contains all entries from transponder. Some such streams are opened correctly and some not, so you have to find correct program in Program menu. It is counterintuitive especially if name in playli...

Is it possible to receive stream program ID from SAP announcement? Like It is in XSPF playlist via <vlc:option>program=6102</vlc:option> line. I'm setting up streaming of some FTA satellite channels to my LAN. Hardware DVB-S streamer puts full program table from original sat stream into each multica...
