Problems with dshow:// as input!

Hello,

I have a problem with dshow:// as input with VLM.
I have a video card installed, and I want to stream the video input. Everything works great if I use the GUI to set it up. When I try to do the same under VLM, the whole VLC.exe crashes (it is the same with the NT-service as.

I have absolutelly NO problems when I choose another input, for example a file, so I'm absolutelly sure the problem is with the direct-show input!

I tried this code, but it didnt help!

Code: Select all

new stream broadcast enabled setup stream input dshow:// setup stream option dshow-vdev="Conexant's BtPCI Capture" setup stream option dshow-adev="none" setup stream option dshow-size="" setup stream output #transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=512,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=:1234}} control stream play

This is the String the GUI creates, and THAT definitely works under the GUI, but NOT with VLM (setup stream input [string]), too (crash of vlc-service or vlc-application!):

Code: Select all

dshow:// :dshow-vdev="Conexant's BtPCI Capture" :dshow-adev="none" :dshow-size=""
I also tried to put exactly this string into "", but this didnt help either!

Does anybody have an idea whats going wrong with the direct-show input?
I have to use this VLM, because I'm controlling it with a VB.NET program, so it would be great, if there's an option to get it working!
