The VideoLAN Forums

So I found the localecho, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. I am wondering if I am sending the filename correctly, is it looking for a full path? All I *really* want to do is send a pause command remotely. Is there a better way? Welcome to Microsoft Telnet Client Escape Character is 'CTRL+]' M...

Indeed it is on Windows (XP). I can try it tonight (home) on linux, but I'm not sure that will help since we'll need it to work on a windows box in the end. Thanks for your advice.

hmm... More complecated than I thought. This is the series of commands I used: vlc --extraintf telnet telnet 127.0.0.1 4212 new channel1 broadcast enabled setup channel1 input earlylig2001.mpeg setup channel1 output :sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=224.0.0.0:1234}} control ...

I am trying to use the telnet interface, seen here: http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/ch05.html This is what I have tried C:\telnet 127.0.0.1 4212 Password: Welcome, Master > stop : Unknown command > pause : Unknown command > It lets me log on, but none of the commands seem to work. Sho...

I get this when I try to search: General Error Could not obtain search results DEBUG MODE SQL Error : -1 ERROR: expression too complex DETAIL: Nesting depth exceeds maximum expression depth 10000. HINT: Increase the configuration parameter "max_expr_depth". SELECT t.*, f.forum_id, f.forum_...

Sorry I can be a little dense at times. Anycase, I looked at it again (of course you have to transcode!), and got a command that works: vlc dshow:// :dshow-vdev="" :dshow-adev="" :dshow-size="" :sout=#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,vb=768,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2}:du...

Ok so recording works, now I am trying to stream this accross the network. First I tried my usual methods: vlc dshow:// :v4l-norm=1:sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=224.0.0.0:1234}} Plays locally, nothing remote vlc dshow:// :v4l-norm=1:sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{ac...

Thanks that worked!

Excellent.

Ok, I see that it is using the I420 codec. So I tried this command: vlc dshow:// :dshow-vdev="" :dshow-adev="" :dshow-size="" sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=I420,dst="clip.I420"}} Which shows no video, and saves a 1k file. Then I tried this: vlc dshow...

Evironment: WinXP, Videolan 0.8.5, Osprey 50 USB capture card Instructions I am using: http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/How_to_Use_a_Capture_Card This does not work for me. When I try the command as given I get: Unable to open 'v4l://' Unable to open ''--sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=2030,audio-s...

I am starting a new thread because this is a new question. In my last thread I wanted to know how to show my current desktop via multicast: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=84775#84775 That works now. I am using this command: vlc screen:// --sout "#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=...

I am pretty new to using VideoLAN on the commandline. I tried: vlc screen:// :sout='#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=2048}:std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=224.0.0.0:1234}' But that just brings up a VLC player that does not apper to be broadcasting anything. If I click 'play' it will say 'screen' in the status ba...

This looks like it should be possible, but I can't get it to work. Multicast runs great vlc "EarlyLig2001.mpeg" :sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=224.0.0.0:1234}} That displays both places as it should. But when I try to run my screen over multicast: vlc screen:// ...

I've got (or will have) a room with 72 student PCs, and one Teacher PC. What they want is for the teacher to be able to start a video, and have it play on all 72 student pcs, weather it is off his HD, dvd, or vhs (via capture card). I see that the multicast in VideoLAN would serve me well here. My q...
