I am facing issues in encoding resolutions which are non multiple of CIF for h263v2 1998 / h263+ video using VLC and libavcodec.

From where can I download VLC 1.1, latest binary available on videolan website is 1.0.3, and it doesn't show application option in either Playlist or Open Capture Device menus?

So how we can do it using VLC, what are the steps or command line options to stream a window/application screen?

Is it possible using VLC to capture and stream video of a single window or application than entire desktop screen of pc/laptop?
