Broadcasting problem/vlc telnet interface/vlm

Postby rajbits » 18 Nov 2006 11:59

Hi All,

I am trying to broadcast one media (say A) for couple of seconds and pause it, and play a different media (say B). Once B is completed, I want to resume A from the point where it was paused. Its analogous to playing a movie and showing ads in between.

I am able to pause A, but when I play B, the streams get mixed up and it crashes the VLC on the client machine. Does anyone know how to signal vlc to pause playing A and stream just B. I tried using disable but it does not seem to work. Any good ideas are most welcome.

Here's my code :
del movie
new movie broadcast enabled
setup movie input file:///D:/tmp/thebestargument.wmv
setup movie output #standard{mux=ts,access=udp,raw,dst=239.255.1.1,sap,name="Movie 1"}:#duplicate{mux=asf,access=http,dst=192.168.13.1:9002/bc}
control movie play
control movie option --sout-keep
show movie
