I'm using an Amino set-top box, but it should work to another vlc client also.

So you can play the hdpvr with a different program?

I don't think that warning is a problem, but the error might be problematic.

Try restarting the hdpvr, sometimes they need that.

Make sure you've got all the requisite modules installed.

I've got it running on .8.6h...i've never tried .9 or 1.0

I think I used something like

vlc pvr:// :pvr-device=/dev/video0 --sout #standard{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.16.0.32:4788},

or you can just multicast it directly from the device using emcast.

i_magic, Multicast streaming does work using vlc. However, the stream dies whenever there is a resolution change in the source video. I believe this is a driver problem, and it should be fixed in the next driver release. In linux, the devices will get assigned sequentially as you said (/dev/video{0,...

Jeff,
Any update on this? What set-top box are you using?

Yep it's working now...

commands are you using input the video file into vlm? You have to tell it to mux stream out using a TS eg.

setup Test mux mp2t input file.mpg


Also, did you compile your vlc with the live555 libraries? Vlc has to has those.

Thanks for your reply... I got it to work...the aminos have to receive a TS, and for some reason I didn't have the TS module compiled into vlc. The command is correct, the "-I telnet" is to specify an extra interface. For some reason in the amino's you have to type the url as "rtsp://...

Yes it is a mpeg2 file: $ file all.mpg all.mpg: MPEG sequence, v2, program multiplex Here's the command I'm using: vlc --ttl 12 -vvv telnet --telnet-password videolan --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554 Then I just telnet to myself on 4212 and type: new Test vod enabled setup Test mux mp2t input all.mpg Thanks

Hello, I've looked all around, and havent found anyone with this same problem... The issue I'm having is getting rtsp working to an amino 110. I have the latest nightlie build and the live555 libraries. The stream works to my laptop, but the problem is streaming to the amino. I put in the address: r...
