Cambozola viewing of stream

[sixgunz]

Hi all.

I've been experimenting with VLC for some time now and have had excellent results - this is a great product!!!

I'm now looking to stream video to be played through a java applet viewer called cambozola, which can view mjpeg streams, but not having much luck as yet.

I've managed to make it work using palantir (streaming webcam server), but really want to use VLC as it is much more flexible - plus can stream films, etc as well!!

Can anyone help with the settings? Tried loads of combinations of transpor streams, transcoding and output methods, but none seem to work.

Also, if anyone knows of a workable alternative to cambozola, then please let me know!!

use
output access: http
address: yourserver:1234/stream1
mux: mpjpeg
codec: mjpeg

now use http://yourserver:1234/stream1 to access the stream

Hello,

I'd like to transcode a mpeg file into mjpeg and stream it this way under windows and with vlc 0.8.1 :

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv "<absolute path of mpeg file>" ":sout=#transcode{vcodec=mjpeg,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:std{access=http,mux=mpjpeg,url='http://<my ip>:8080/stream.mjpeg'}"

and I get errors :

main error: cannot build address for http:8080
access_output_http error: cannot listen on http:8080
stream_out_standard error: no suitable sout access module for `http/mpjpeg://http://<my ip>:8080/stream.mjpeg'
stream_out_transcode error: cannot create chain
main error: stream chained failed for `transcode{vcodec=mjpeg,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:std{access=http,mux=mpjpeg,url='http://<my ip>:8080/stream.mjpeg'}'
main error: cannot start stream output instance, aborting

please, help me...

i removed the http:// so it gives

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv <input file> ":sout=#transcode{vcodec=mjpeg,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:std{access=http, mux=mpjpeg,url=<My ip>:8080/stream.mjpeg}"

and when i try to view the stream with VLC like this

Code: Select all

VLC http://<My IP>:8080/stream.mjpeg

I get

Code: Select all

main error: cannot pre fill buffer

Can VLC realy take an MJPEG stream in input ?
if yes, it is not in the features page


in addition the applet :

Code: Select all

<applet code="com.charliemouse.cambozola.Viewer" archive="SignedCambozola.jar" width="720" height="240"> <param name="url" value="http://<my ip>:8080/stream.mjpeg"> </applet>

doesn't work either
