The VideoLAN Forums

Than ks for the answers. I have tried toto.m3u. This extension is referenced in the mozplugger plugin. So the guiwhich appears (called SMMX) when i click on the metafile does'nt seem to be a VideoLan product, isn't it ? Moreover, this metafile type works for audio files only. Is there any way to use...

I'm using Mozilla including VLC plugin. I succeed in embedding a video in a HTML page with the EMBED tag, using the application/x-vlc-plugin type. I have also inserted a link to a metafile called toto.mp4 in this HTML page. toto.mp4 contains the text "rtsp://server/toto.mp4". When i click ...

I was asking this question because i use the composite input of a tuner card as an input stream for vlc and i get a very bad video: - in PAL mode, i see a good quality but black and white display - in SECAM mode, i have bad quality display like a mixing of red colored pictures and snow ! I was wonde...

Can somebody confirm if the input chroma format for v4l means the way the pictures have been sampled: YUV422, YUV420, RGB.... ?

I'm also looking for the list of all strings available to be set in
--v4l-chroma <string> option ? I did'nt found them anywhere.

Thanks.

According to me reasons for choosing english as a language in this forum are absolutely not related to marchandizing purposes !! The simpliest reason to accept this situation: do you want more chance to get an answer to your question ? I agree this question would also require a large discussion with...

I have compiled and installed under Red Hat 9 the mozilla plugin provided with vlc 0.7.0. When i connect mozilla 1.4.1 to an AVI stream using http://pc-mpeg:8080, it displays the following message: "application/octect-stream (bynary executable)...doesn't recognize...what do you want to do...sav...

I tried the following test: searching the keys "video" and "rtsp" with google, I found a list list of 50 "real time URL" (RTSP, MMS) in several countries (it, no, edu, asia, net, com , fr, dk ...) served by 30 different servers. I found more than 50% files which contain...

Thank you for your honest answer. I think the behaviour of VLC can be understood and is justified by the fact it is dedicated to video content i.e. data with real time properties. But HTTP is known NOT to garantee such properties ! Could the VLC team plan to add an OPTIONNAL behaviour for HTTP ? ==>...

Ithink it's not only a problem of low resolution but also -a problem of optimization in order to keep real time processing capabilities in embedded environment (low CPU, others important and background tasks such as GPRS telecom stack...) - a "problem" (time) of integration in an other OS ...

Is there anyone to confirm if it is really a bug in 0.7.0 version or a configuration problem ?
In this case, is it easy to fix ?

Sigmund was right: VLC was unable to play MP4 files because RTP was used over UDP and most firewalls don't like UDP packets and block them ...javascript:emoticon(':twisted:') The option RTP over TCP solves the problem...even if the quality of a file like http://www.astrojax.com/test.mp4 is very bad ...

sorry, I have forgotten
vlc 0.7.0 / Red Het 9.0

I know VLC has no built-in codec for *.rm files but is it possible and how to read anyway these files with an external codec ?

I had a similar problem but in a Red Hat environment: With the vlc 0.7.0 source files: -compilation was OK -wxWindows interface was not available -in the messages, i could read a shared library could not be opened Whereas with the binary the wxWindows was available Solution was to compile the wxWind...

I have the following problem with vlc 0.7.0/Red Hat 9.0: command: vlc -I rc --noaudio rtsp://www.astrojax.com:7070/test.mp4 The connection with the rtsp server is OK. Several request/response are sent/receivec until that: Received PLAY response: RTSP/1.0 200 OK Server: DSS/5.0 (Build/464; Platform/L...

OK, THANKS ! I have compiled wxWindows and installed it and it works: wxWindows is available. I thought the wxGTK binary library provided with the binary version of vlc was containing all wxWindows required. It's not the case. Furthermore, I have uninstalled the wxGTK library which seems now unusefu...

Sorry..

Only rtp is available in the stream output panel.
Rtsp is in the network sheet of the INPUT file.

Can somebody give me the address of a PUBLIC rtsp server on the web and its content referencies ???

I would want to check if I have well understood the use of the rtsp cient of VLC.

Thanks.

(vlc 0.7.0, Red Hat 9.0)

I know the vlc options to size the display window but i'm looking for options to fix the display window at a given position...

Is it possible and how ?
Does vlc support the -geometry option like xterm ... ?


Emmanuel DUFOUR.

What about the rtsp line of the stream output panel in the wxwindows interface of vlc 0.7.0 ?

Doesn't work ?

When I tried to built VLC 0.7.0 under RedHat 9.0 with exactly the same configure script than for the binary distribution, the resulting VLC is NOT the same as binary version: wxWindows interface is not available. Any idea ? Emmanuel DUFOUR Details: -I got the configure command line from the messages...

I didn't suppose I could have performed a LIVE streaming via HTPP. I just would like to stream a file i.e. see each picture, even if real time is not effective. So, it's normal some pictures are freezed BUT they should be freezed only until the next one will be loaded and displayed (500ms or 4s late...

(VLC 0.7.0, Red Hat 9.0) I'm trying to read an *.avi file on http://www.archive.org with a command line like vlc http://www.archive.org/... The video starts and quickly freezes. Message like this appear: ... main video output warning: late picture skipped (397043) ... If I have well understood, all ...
