Help needed with streaming a folder of video files

Ok, so I have the server portion working mostly on a MacMini. Here is the command I run from Shell:

Code: Select all

/Applications//VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC -vvv /Users/techteam/Desktop/Playlist/ --sout '#rtp{dst=10.1.1.5,port=1234,sdp=rtsp://10.1.1.5:8080/channel2.sdp}' --file-caching 10000 --loop --quiet --no-playlist-tree --fullscreen --recursive="expand"
This will stream whatever files I have in the PlayList folder on my desktop.

On the client, it plays the first video and stops. What I have read seems to be outdated or doesn't work including adding a --sout-keep to the command line. That breaks it completely and doesn't stream at all.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. This is for a K-12 school and we are trying to replace an outdated system.

Thanks!
