VLC streaming of mythtv recordings
Posted: 04 Nov 2005 13:08
Recently I've been trying to use vlc to stream programs recorded using mythtv (from a Nova-T dvb card), but without a whole lot of success. v0.8.1 of vlc is the version with which I've got closest to success, but even in that case I can get video, but no audio. With more recent versions of vlc I just get a whole load of "late picture skipped" warnings, and no video or audio, so I've been sticking with 0.8.1 for my testing. The command I'm running is:
which gives me the following output (apologies for the verbosity):
Any help, advice or pointers to get audio working would be greatly appreciated - I've lost count of the number of source compiles I've done to try and sort this problem, and I'm pretty much out of ideas at the moment.
Thanks.
