vlc://quit and transcoding -> crash

[paaland]

I'm recording a live stream and use --run-time=<nn> to limit number of seconds to record. Then I add vlc://quit to make VLC quit after recording is done.

Problem is that when recording is done (<nn> secs elapsed) VLC.exe write "dummy demux: command 'quit'" message and crashes.

My full command, running vlc 1.0.1 on Windows Server 2008 SP1, 64 bit.

Code: Select all

VLC.exe -Idummy --run-time=60 udp://@239.1.1.11:1234 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=1200,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,deinterlace,audio-sync,samplerate=44100}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=ts,dst=D:\\Movies\\test_mpg.mpg}} vlc://quit

Same problems with 1.0.2 and 1.1.0 test builds?

Upgraded to 1.0.2 and I've yet to experience the problem. Thanks.

Darn. Today the problem is back. VLC crashes when transcording is done. The output from VLC is as follows:

CRASH!!!

(trying to use div3 codec and avi mux this time, but also happens with mpeg2 and mp4)

AVI streaming is broken AFAIK. Does the problem happen if you use something else than UDP input?

AVI streaming is broken AFAIK.

What, broken in 1.0.2? If so, what was the last version where it worked?

Does the problem happen if you use something else than UDP input?

Does not happen when using feks a DVD as input.

No clue.

Does not happen when using feks a DVD as input.

Sounds like a UDP bug then.
