Marquee from command line not working

Hi Forum, I've spent hours and hours trying to get this working and its driving me up the wall.

I need to take the source video which an ipcam on my network and add marquee text to it and save to a file. Everything is working OK but I just can't get the text added to the videostream in the file. Please can someone take a look at my command line below and advise where I have gone wrong?

P.s. I need to do this from command line.


"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" "http://192.168.0.178:1025/videostream.a ... n=8&rate=0" :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=0,scale=0,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:file{dst=C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\FTP\test.mp4} :sout-keep{soverlay, sfilter="marq{marquee="TS",color=16777215,position=10}" --run-time 3 --stop-time=3 vlc://quit

This way:

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=0,scale=0,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100,soverlay,sfilter=marq{marquee="TS",color=16777215,position=10}}:file{dst=C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\FTP\test.mp4}
