Scheduled Dump Raw to Disk ??

Is there a way using VLM to schedule to dump raw to disk?

I have found a way to make it work using the command line and windows scheduled tasks ( "c:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" udp://@224.1.2.3:1234 :demux=dump :demuxdump-file="C:\raw" ), but I was wondering if I could do it using VLM instead.

something like this should work :

Code: Select all

new test broadcast enabled input udp:@224.1.2.3:1234 setup test option demux=dump setup test option demuxdump-file="C:\rax" control test play

Using the code you propose, the test media never plays. Here is the output from show test:

> show
test
type : broadcast
enabled : yes
loop : no
inputs
udp://@224.1.2.3:1234
output :
options
demux=dump
demuxdump-file="C:\raw"
instances

Notice no instances default playing. Any other ideas? Anyone ever done this?

Here are the verbose error messages:

demuxdump error: cannot create `"C:\demux.tp"' for writing
main warning: no demux2 module matching "dump" could be loaded

Hum that's weird. Could you paste the output from vlc --list -vvv ?
