transcoding output with no time control

I am transcoding mjpeg from an Axis IP camera to divx using VLC. All in all I've got it working pretty well except for one big problem. Sometimes the divx file created will be playable in VLC with a position-control slider and sometimes the control is missing and I cannot position the video. The video is useless to me in this condition.

Can someone tell me how VLC decides whether to allow such positioning control or not? I get no error messages from the player.

Here is my command-line:

Code: Select all

vlc http://192.168.0.105/axis-cgi/mjpg/video.cgi?resolution=640x480 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=DIV2,vb=1024,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=asf,dst="vid.avi"}}
