Zorglub,

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried the latest build, and it works. From my perspective, the latest 0.7.3 build has a fix for my http proxy problem.

Thanks again,

Has anyone else seen this problem or is it just me?

Thanks,

Yes, you can. You just need two additional pieces of software. (I'm assuming you are in a Windows environment.) First, you need to get a copy of ImgTool Classic 0.91.X, which you can get from http://www.doom9.org/software2.htm . (Look for it near the bottom of the page.) ImgTool Classic will create ...

Has anyone had any success using VLC 0.7.2 to view an http stream through a proxy server? I have a Windows 2000 PC at home running VLC 0.7.2 that captures video/audio, transcodes it to WMV2 at 128Kbps and MP3 at 32Kbps, mux's using ASF, and streams using http. When I'm at work behind the corporate f...

One more follow-up . . .

If I change the output method in VLC 0.7.2 to mmsh (instead of http) and the muxer/container format to AVI, then I can view the stream on WMP 9.0/Win2000. Unfortunately, it still does not work with WMP 6.4/WinNT.

markfm,

Thanks for the clarification regarding the releases of VLC (0.7.2 vs. 0.7.3). When VLC 0.7.3 becomes available, I'll give it a try.

No need to apologize. On the contrary, you've given me something to look forward to - VLC 0.7.3 !

Thanks again,

kjo

markfm, I thought that AVI was not meant for streaming, i.e., it is only valid as a file format. Even it was valid for streaming, VLC does not support AVI muxing combined with the http output method. See the following URL: http://www.videolan.org/streaming/features.html But just to make sure, I trie...

I have been playing around with using VLC 0.7.2 to transcode DirectShow input video/audio and then streaming it to Windows Media Player (WMP) over http. Thanks to some of the hints and suggestions from the forums, I've had some success. Here are the setup parameters that have worked best for me: Str...

Starhaw, Since you've been able to view the output locally, I think you are almost there. Beyond what I've already stated in my earlier post, have you done the following: 1. You have to transcode and then stream the output. I've done most of my testing with UDP multicast. I have had no success yet w...

In case anyone is interested, I have had some success using the DirectShow input of VLC 0.7.2 with DigitalVideo (DV) hardware. Since this did not work under VLC 0.7.0 (no audio - see http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=910&highlight= ), I wanted to report the good news! I have a Canopus AD...

A small correction to my earlier post concerning my Canopus ADVC-1394 capture card . . . My capture card takes in both video AND audio. The audio does NOT go through my sound card as I stated earlier. Sorry about the confusion . . . I don't know what I was thinking. The ADVC-1394 takes in any analog...

I've been playing around with the DirectShow input for VLC 0.7.0. I have a Canopus ADVC-1394 capture card that shows up as an OHCI compliant 1394 device to the operating system. Audio input goes through my sound card - a Creative SoundBlaster LIVE! 5.1. I am running Windows 2000 Advanced Server on a...
