I have a problem transcoding live stream to file whihc can be watched in QuickTIme(mp4/mov). namelly, when I do it from GUI, selected capture device, profile h264+aac and convert to test.mp4(or test.mov) I can open and watch file in QuickTime. When I tried same thing from command line using "#t...

Thanks, these days I'll try on linux and see if there is any difference.

Maybe your input access reads frame from the tv card too fast

I'm not sure what that means and how I can check or change that?
Also, I tried to define fps using values 24, 25, 30 but that doesn't change anything.

Do you have any idea?

With these transcode settings "transcode{vcodec=mpeg4,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}" CPU usage is between 75% and 95%. Rarely it goes below 75%, also rarely it goes up(above 95%).

As I said, I'm transcoding from tv card and I tried with some standard fps values(30, 25, 24) but cpu usage is always 100%. Right now, I tried with fps=15 but still cpu is lock on 100%.

Is there anything else I can try?

Is there any parameter which can define encoding performance? Something like 'convert slow/medium/fast'?
I mean, it's not possible to have machine running 24x7 with 100% cpu usage ...

Hello everybody, I have a question about cpu usage. Namely, when I transcode stream from tv card using h264(x264) encoding cpu is almost all the time on 100% usage. Machine is DualCore on 3GHz with 2GB memory, OS is winXP. I tried to change "threads" parameter but it doesn't change anythin...

Yes, I have them both in 'project/plugins' folder but still I'm getting error mentioned above.

Ok, now I know that is possible. Can you tell me how to use libvlc without installing vlc player? What steps are necessary? When I tried to instantiate libvlc from c# I got following error: "Unable to load DLL 'libvlc': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007...

I'm wondering is it possible to use libvlc in C# without installing vlc player?
Is it possible just to register libvls.dll or any other(s) ddl(s)?
