sout error when trying to transcode and create an .sdp file

Hello All,

The following string works fine when run on a VLC install on a pc, but when I run the same string on a install on OS X 10.4.8 I get the following output error behavior:

Each time it is run it gives the error for the last two options of each module. For instance, for the following string:

vlc udp://@239.60.60.101:4900 --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:rtp{dst=239.40.40.101,port=4900,sdp=sap,sdp=file://c:\applications\vlc\old_yeller.sdp,ttl=15,name=cnn}

I will get an error "no suitable access module for :sout=#transcodechannels2:rptname=cnn"

If I delete those options, the next time run it will give the same error but now the new last options will be given in the error.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

file://c:\applications\vlc\old_yeller.sdp
is not a valid path for OSX, try /Users/Shared/old_yeller.sdp instead and you will have the sdp in the shared folder

My bad....

The string that I pasted in was from the Windows machine. I do use a valid path for the Mac, like file://<path>/filename. Still I think I have something wrong in the syntax altogether, with the way the errors are listing out the last two options for each module, no matter what those options are.
