Does the Windows VLC support h264 transcoding ?
Posted: 17 Oct 2013 12:32
Hi,
Well the title is quite explicit, I would like to know if VLC on Windows is able to transcode with h264 codec and ffmpeg encoder, or must I recompile VLCwith a h264-enabled ffmpeg ? If I use x264 encoder it does not work well at all, I only have one image after a long time.
At the moment, I'm running VLC 2.1.0 Rincewind, and when entering this command :
I get this message in the log :
I tried to install ffmpeg and add it to my path, it did not change anything.
(this post is linked to this one : https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=114504 , but I thought it would be better to create a new one for this specific problem)
Thanks !
