WebM Streaming crashes Win32 VLC 2.2.0

Hi There.
Thank you for updating VLC Win32 to version 2.2.0.

I Tried to transcode http .ts source into WebM stream using VLM LUA interface, but VLC crashes.

In Changelog, it says:
Streaming: * WebM streaming, including live sources, compatible with all major browsers

Code: Select all

vlc <your-source> vlc://quit --sout '#transcode{vcodec=VP80,vb=1000,acodec=vorb,ab=128} :std{access=http{mime=video/webm},mux=webm,dst=:4212}'
.

I gave Browser this

Code: Select all

http://none:pass@myWAN:8080/requests/vlm_cmd.xml?command=new TEST broadcast enabled input "http://sourceIP:8001/1:0:1:11:3:F:FFFF0000:0:0:0:" output #transcode{vcodec=VP80,vb=512,acodec=vorb,ab=128}:std{access=http{mime=video/webm},mux=webm,dst=:4212}
and observed VLC's message (debug) what is going on, when I press "PLAY" on Manage Streams section in VLM interface.
VLC started to execute the command but when Input .ts was streaming in, VLC just exists. Restarting VLC wants to send debug log (I did).

This works perfectly

Code: Select all

http://none:pass@myWAN:8080/requests/vlm_cmd.xml?command=new TEST broadcast enabled input "http://sourceIP:8001/1:0:1:11:3:F:FFFF0000:0:0:0:" output #transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=384,fps=25,width=640,height=360,venc=x264{{profile=baseline,level=1}},acodec=mp3,ab=96,channels=1,samplerate=48000}:http{dst=:8080/stream.ts}
.

The idea is to transcode DreamBox input into something that can be streamed into plain HTML5 browser. WebM might be good choise, not JWplayer....
