Hi everyone

I have the latest version of VLC. I can play a 3gp with amr audio codec, however I can't trancode any file to this audio codec.

I use the following line

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv dshow:// --dshow-tuner-channel=16 :sout=#transcode{width=176,height=144,vcodec=H263,vb=128,fps=12.5,acodec="[b]samr[/b]",ab="12200",samplerate="8000",channels="1",sfilter='logo{file=C:\streaming\satellite.png,position=9,transparency=160}:marq@text1{marquee="Streaming Test",position=8,size=20,color=FFFFFF}:logo{file=C:\streaming\mail.png,position=6,transparency=255}'}:rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,ttl=127,sdp=file:///"C:\Program Files\Darwin Streaming Server\Movies\canal.sdp"}
But I have the folowing error:

Streaming / Transcoding failed:
It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder:
AMR narrow band.
If you don't know how to fix this, ask for support from your distribution.

does VLC not support amr enconding and only support decoding?

Thanks for your time!

Yep. Or to be more precise, the libavcodec build used in your VLC build doesn't support AMR encoding.
