Hi all,

I have read the documentation, the wiki pages and a good part of this sub forum, but I still can't get VOD to work on my network.

I tried a very simple setup, but apparently I'm doing something very wrong:

- I started VLC with one or the other command line code that I found
- I provided a VLM-config file with channel/setup stuff in it
- I tried to connect to it, but never got a valid connection

command line

Code: Select all

vlc --ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --telnet-password videolan --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554

config

Code: Select all

new test vod enabled
setup test mux mpt2
setup test input "K:\Filme\Serien\House MD\Season 7\myfile20.mkv"
setup test enabled

client

Code: Select all

open network stream =>  rtsp://127.0.0.1:5554/test

error messages

Code: Select all

Connection failed:
VLC could not connect to "127.0.0.1:5554".
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'rtsp://127.0.0.1:5554/test'. Check the log for details.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Apparently something very basic is not right here

Any help is very much appreciated.

Okay, apparently my setup wasn't quite correct. I have corrected what I found, but it still won't work:

new VLC server start command:

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv --color --vlm-conf VLMDEMO.conf -I telnet --telnet-password videolan --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0 --rtsp-port 554

new call from client

Code: Select all

rtsp://127.0.0.1/test

Here's the log from the VLC client.

Code: Select all

what's wrong? something with the live555?

server log (the end of it):

Code: Select all

stream_out_rtp debug: adding media 'test'
stream_out_rtp debug: RTSP stream at /test
main debug: net: listening to 0.0.0.0 port 554
main error: socket bind error (No error)
main error: cannot create socket(s) for HTTP host

so it worked, but then a socked bind error with "No error" occurred?
