Capturing video and audio together in version 1.2?

Hi,

at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html you say about video acquisition: "VLC 1.2 adds enables capturing from all devices supported by QTKit."

Does it mean we can only capture video (like it is now only possible with iSight)? Or can video and audio resources be captured together in version 1.2 and send as a synced stream to a streaming server?

Off topic: are there any plans to implement RTMP output as well?

Thanks

Malte

you would be able to either capture video or audio. Capturing both resources as a synced stream from one module will not be implemented at the moment. One could probably achieve it via the mosaic module. However it shouldn't be that big of a step to implement sth where video and audio are sent in a synced stream from the same module - it's the next step. i already played with it in the beginning but it had problems accessing both video and audio from the same session... it's probably sth with how QTKit allows for accesing this data, or a thread / synchronized thing. we'll see
