How to interpret udp-caching option?

Hello all, I am a bit confused about the meaning of udp-caching. Its default value is 300ms. Does it mean end-to-end delay? What exactly does udp-caching mean? If a packet arrives after 300ms when it has been sent out, will it be dropped by VLC? If it is the case, then how is the delay measured in c...

Is it possible to add a label for frame When streaming a fil

Re: Different number of frames between sender and receiver

Thanks for your response. It seems to be a bug. When I streamed out a file and stored it into another file on server's disk, the number of frames of these two files is still different. In this case I even set up file-caching=0. but some frames (5 out of 2000) are still lost, even locally (streaming ...

Question on the meaning of file-caching and udp-caching sett

Hello all, I am new to VLC streamer. I got confused about file-caching and udp-caching settings. From what I understand, file-caching is for the file-read buffer when VLC streams out a file to network, and udp-caching is for the receive-store buffer when VLC reads a stream from network. Am I right? ...

Different number of frames between sender and receiver

Hello all, I got a strange problem when I streamed a mpeg4 file (coded with ffmpeg from raw yuv format) for a server to a client. The client grabbed the stream as well as stored it into a file on the disk. I compared the tcpdump traces from the sender and receiver. I found no packet was lost, which ...

Re: How to control buffer size (or time) for VLC?

Thanks again.

Where am I supposed to find the detailed explanation about these parameters in the VLC documentation? I prefer the command line settings over the VLC GUI.

How to control buffer size (or time) for VLC?

Hi there, I am setting up a streaming server and sending a mpeg4 stream to a VLC receiver. Is there any mechanism with which I can control the buffer management at the client side? In other words, how does the VLC (player) implement the buffering mechanism? I am working on wireless video. Your help ...
