logging with time of events

I'm running vlc from the command line and it generates a log but from the log I can't tell what time certain events happened. Is there a way to make the log include the times that events happened?

Re: rtsp and segmentation fault

I did get it to work eventually. If it's any use to others looking at this here is the command that worked:

cvlc rtsp://<ip-cam> --sout "#transcode{vcodec=FLV1,vb=150,acodec=mp3,ab=32,samplerate=22500}:std{access=http{mime=video/x-flv},mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=0.0.0.0::8085/stream.flv

Re: video is streaming but no image in vlc

would believe it, this morning I've tried the same thing again and now it's working. Only problem is I have no audio at the end of the chain. I know the cam is putting out audio on the rtsp stream to the server because I've tested it and I can hear it, but the server isn't including audio in the tra...

Re: latest version that doesn't have vb bug

the bug whereby vlc ignores the 'vb=' value in the command line. I've since discovered that vlc-2.0.0-2.el6.x86_64 doesn't have the bug but it 'rc buffer underflow's a lot. vlc-2.0.2-5.el6.x86_64 doesn't have the bug but the stream drops a lot.

Re: 'libpostproc' requires 'libavutil = 51.22.1'

downgrade libavutil.
I didn't see what OS you're installing on. I use centos and to downgrade it's 'yum downgrade libavutil'.
if you're using a different linux you'll have to find the correct command for your OS.

Re: vlc ignores the video bitrate transcoding option

yes I had the same problem with centos6 64bit and the solution was to uninstall vlc and install vlc -1.1.13-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm using: yum install -1.1.13-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm I got it from here: http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el6/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/vlc-1.1.13-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm during the install I h...
