The VideoLAN Forums

I have a hardware device can send and receive streams of H.264 video and 24-bit PCM audio using the RTP Audio Video Profile. I can receive streams from it with VLC by passing VLC the SDP file that the device produces. I'd now like to send data back to the device, but I'm struggling to work out the c...

Just recompiled from git and all is working perfectly. Thanks for getting to it so quickly!

There's nothing obvious in the logs. Bug filed: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/10269

I'm using VLC 2.2.0 compiled from git. to stream H264 and signed 24 bit big-endian PCM using RTP Audio/Video profile. cvlc stream.mkv :sout='#rtp{dst=10.161.156.201,port=6748,ttl=1,sdp="file:///tmp/test.sdp"}' :sout-all :sout-keep -L vlc plays stream.mkv just fine but if I stream it with t...

Thanks. That makes sense.
I'll use something else for the encoding, and use VLC for the streaming.

I'm trying to play (ultimately encode) two separate raw essence files - uyvy422 video and PCM s16l audio. I can play each of these separately with VLC using the rawaud and rawvideo demux modules, but I can't add an input slave when using either of those. It looks to me like input-slave is not compat...

VLC's MKV support seems lacking. I used ffmpeg in the end.

Ta.

After a bit more digging it looks like what I wanted to do can't really be done in that way. The #duplicate causes the two transcode pipelines to be treated totally separately. If I do the transcode before the duplicate then VLC can't tell what's video and what's audio - it's raw data after all. Thi...

I'm using VLC to receive a 30Mbps H.264 RTP stream, which I would then like to decode and output to separate files of raw audio and video data. This is the command line I use: vlc -vvv -I dummy --extraintf http --http-port=9090 /home/npf/in.sdp --sout '#duplicate{dst="transcode{vcodec=UYVY}:std...

i installed it a while ago in xubuntu so don't remember exactly the procedure, except that it was more complicated than described on the page you mention. i vaguely recall something about vlc being in the "multiverse" or "universe" repositories, which contain unofficial or non-fr...

in fact, that may be better in some instances because of the ease of automation. the server could be set to download said xml file at a defined interval and then the user doesn't even have to click "save".

thanks dionoea.

mark.

agreed. it's definitely low priority.

oh i agree completely. i'd hate for vlc to be the reason that someone doesn't make the switch from windows to debian.

i'll second (erm, third...) that! 0.8.2 is getting old now. i think it's good for debian beginers (like myself) to learn to complie things themselves; it's a fundamental part of using gnu/linux, but vlc's quite a big task to undertake as your first go at compiling. i compiled vlc on windows once. it...

i think it'd be a worthwhile feature to add, and i know it'd make my life much simpler! so if someone can find the time to do it that'd be great.

thanks,
mark.

hehe. thanks dionoea. you had me a little confused for a minute there...

i assume it probably wouldn't even be that difficult because the function already exists in vlc.

Is it possible to save a playlist from the http interface? We'd like to use VLC to stream to a digital sinage network, controlling our streaming server via remotely. We'd like to have a default playlist that the server loads on boot, and to be able to change that playlist from the http interface. Ob...

ok, problem solved! for unicast UDP as baldur said, you specify the destination address on both server AND client. This seems a bit unintuitive to me, but it works! vlc streams to: udp://192.168.7.147:5555 (amino box ip address) amino browses to: udp://192.168.7.147:5555 (amino box ip address) it al...

i think you're both saying the same thing - that source (VLC server) and destination (Amino STB client) need to specify each other's IP address...?

i'll try that when i'm in the office tomorrow morning and report back.

thanks guys.

We've been looking for a good streaming video client for a while so last week we ordered an AmiNET124 I've had a look around the forums and established that multicast streaming does[/u] now work to Amino boxes but has to be UDP video packets sent over RTSP. Other posts suggest that UDP unicast strea...

i think what Atropos is trying to say is that when you save a playlist and then reopen it you loose the "tree" layout in the playlist window. as seen here: when the playlist is created: http://www.howmany.co.uk/vlc/playlist.jpg after the playlist has been saved and reloaded: http://www.how...

a much friendlier syntax than my suggestion.

i was forgetting that layout IDs are globally unique, rather than being local to their window.

thanks again,

mark.

excellent!

thanks ipkiss.

would it be possible to add a boolean expression to the skins2 interface please? while skins2 allows you to check the visibility of a "window" it doesn't let you check the "layout" of that window. i'd suggest something along the lines of: window_id.isLayout(layout_id) thanks in a...
