Recording X seconds length files "dashcam style"
Posted: 18 Apr 2017 20:03
Hello, first of all sorry if this is not right place for this post...
I am trying to record some "dashcam style" webcam output with VLC - I want to record 150 seconds file, play it and in the same time record another so I can always see on screen 150 seconds delayed video
I created .cmd file and tested it on screen:// where timer starts from 00:00:00 and it records files in a loop like I want
But because there is no time runnning on streams or there are some random values eg. 94:41:11 --stop-time or --run-time doesn't work
This records all the time, --run-time doesn't stop it 
Any idea how can I limit record time?
And maybe any sugestions how to play first file while second is recording? And then second, third etc...
Thank you in advance
