Re-Streaming one of multiple available streams on demand

Postby minibbjd » 05 Nov 2005 12:26

Hi!

I'm trying to stream tv to a pocketpc with vlc/vlm. This works fine:

Code: Select all

new test1 vod enabled setup test1 input http://192.168.0.5:3000/PS/15 setup test1 output #transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=512,ab=32,scale=0.25,deinterlace}:standard{access=http,mux=asf,url=192.168.0.5:1234/15} control test1 play
The stream comes from a vdr streaming server on the same machine and I can view the transcoded stream on my PocketPC. However, as soon as I issue the command "control test1 play" the stream is fetched from the input streaming server and transcoded, while I would expect that "vod" means this starts only at the time I access the stream from the PocketPC.

The vdr streaming server can only supply one stream since there only is one DVB card available, so what I want is that only the stream that is asked for from the PocketPC is fetched from the vdr streaming server, transcoded and streamed to the PocketPC. This should work implicit through the URL, e.g. http://192.168.0.5:1234/BBC for the BBC, http://192.168.0.5:1234/CNN for CNN.

Can anyone help with this? I'd really appreciate it.

Best regards,
Marcus
