Fedora12 ... module:any fourcc:mp4v

[danimani]

Hi Guys,

This is updated fedora 12 on i686.

$ cvlc -vvv ./01.avi --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128,deinterlace}:rtp{mux=ts,dst=239.255.12.42,sdp=sap,name="TestStream"}'

I am getting the encoder errors:

[0xb5223d78] main filter debug: TIMER module_need() : 2.550 ms - Total 2.550 ms / 1 intvls (Avg 2.550 ms)

[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep vlc
vlc-core-1.0.6-1.fc12.i686
vlc-1.0.6-1.fc12.i686
[root@localhost ~]#

There is lot help for debian, but i could not find for Fedora.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks

You didn't past the most interresting lines but my bet is that your libavcodec (ffmpeg) is missing one of the encoder you need

Is seems that FFmpeg is compiled with such Encoder.

@xtophe
do you have any suggestion from where to search ?

Can you report a bug on bugzilla.rpmfusion.org
I expect it is a problem with FFMpeg, but it would help to test with a later vlc version.

Please report a bug on bugzilla.rpmfusion.org if anyone care to have this bug fixed.
Please attach the output of ffmpeg -i source_file
