I use VLC to push a DVD to a stream:
vlc -vvv --color dvd://d:@2 --loop --sout #duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=localhost:8080}}

On the same machine I try to pickup the DVD using:

Code: Select all

<BODY onLoad="centerIt()" onResize="handleResize()" bgcolor="024799"> <DIV ID="movie" STYLE="position:absolute; left:0; top:0; background-color:024799; width:1; height:1;"> <OBJECT classid="clsid:E23FE9C6-778E-49D4-B537-38FCDE4887D8" codebase="http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/latest/win32/axvlc.cab" width="1600" height="900" id="vlc" events="True"> <param name="Src" value="http://localhost:8080" /> <param name="ShowDisplay" value="True" /> <param name="AutoLoop" value="True" /> <param name="AutoPlay" value="True" /> <param name="Volume" value="100"/> </OBJECT> </DIV> </BODY>
After the DVD has played I do not get a second run. So the loop-option does not work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!!

I found the cause..

I was trying to stream a movie by use of a DVD. When I select a complete title the --loop does not function anymore. This is probably caused by the definition on the DVD wich forces the streaming to provide a menu.

The menu is not shown on the activeX-component.

When I order to display title 1, chapter 1 with option --loop it does work.

To show the total title, I have to order title 1, chapter 1 through title 1, chapter last. Now I can provide the option --loop and this works fine!!
