vlm stops ts vod stream

I'm trying to record ts files into mythtv using vlc with the "freebox" method, but I encountered a problem: vlm stops the stream after 58 seconds.

I simplified the setup to just 1 vlc running in vlm mode and 1 vlc client connecting to it.

./start.sh:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh vlc --vlm-conf vlc.vod.conf --ttl 2 -vvv --color -I telnet --telnet-password aaa
vlc.vod.conf:

Code: Select all

new test vod input /tmp/01.ts mux mp2t enabled
And then I start a vlc client connecting to it:

Code: Select all

vlc rtsp://localhost/test
The ts is about 300MiB and is about 6m30s long. When I split it into multiple files of about 1m20s vlm just stops streaming each of the files after 58 seconds.

The funny part is that if I just play the ts file with vlc directly (vlc /tmp/01.ts) it plays perfectly.

What could I be doing wrong here?

Could it be that it has to do with the way the live555 code has been implemented in the vlm mode?

I tried to serve the ts file with the live555 media server and vlc could play the rtsp stream perfectly.

Seems to have been fixed in vlc 2.0.6.
Thanks.
