I am using Ubuntu 14.04 to compile VLC (fresh git) for Win32 by following the directions on this page: https://wiki.videolan.org/Win32Compile/ During the ../extras/package/win32/configure.sh step I get the following error checking for AVCODEC... no configure: error: No package 'libavcodec' found No ...

I have a problem, streaming from IP cameras using RTSP, wherein I get video for a few seconds, then the screen goes gray, and then the video comes back for good. I have discovered the cause: When the video first appears, after the first buffer period, the first few presentation times (PCRs) - before...

Answering my own question: When the video first appears, after the first buffer period, the first few presentation times (PCRs) - before RTCP synchronization occurs - are just 'guesses' made by the receiving code (based on the receiver's 'wall clock' and the RTP timestamp).

Thank you for your time,

I have a need to catch a H.264 stream and a G.726 stream from an IP video camera and write the result to a MOV file on the fly... think spooling A/V from a security camera to disk for later review. Streams will last 15 to 30 minutes and then the file gets to close. Am I in the right place to learn h...
