Port-Range for VLM

[dunsti]

Hi!

i use VLM tho stream my videos from an server. VLM streams the videos over ports <1024, this ports are choosen randomly, but in my network I have only a port-range opend, could I configure VLM to use only this port-range?

regards,

try --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:<port>

hi dionoea!

ok, I reask my question, with a bit more information:

I start a VLC-VLM-Server:

Code: Select all

vlc -I telnet --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0 --telnet-password admin

then I add a video:

Code: Select all

new test vod enabled input /home/dunsti/test.mpg

now when a client requests this streams, the VLC-Client and the VLM-Server communicate over a TCP-connection on port 554.
then they build a connection for the video and the audio stream, and the ports for this streams are <1024 (UDP) on the server and the client side, I am right?
and for this random ports I want to specify a range.

Thank you for your help!

try --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554
and it will use ports 5554 and up (i'm not 100% positive ... but almost)

hi dionoea!

using --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554 doesn't work.

but thank you for your help!
