FriendZZzzzz,
Is there anyone knows more about videolan coding? I downloaded an old version source code vlc 0.8.1, and I wan to findout the code for setting the frame rate of video in videolan and image resolution (if any) because I am suffering serious bandwidth problem while I 'm streaming the video over a small bandwidth network ( 384kbps). I am using a setting 192kbps for Video and 32 kbps for audio. But some frames cross the limitation of 384...

I found one code

Code: Select all

add_integer( SOUT_CFG_PREFIX "shaping", 200, NULL,SHAPING_TEXT, SHAPING_LONGTEXT, VLC_TRUE );
in the file vlc-0.8.1/modules/demux/ts.c and its description is as follows
"If enabled, and shaping is specified, the TS muxer will place the boundaries at the end of I pictures. In that case, the shaping duration given by the user is a worse case used when no reference frame is available. This enhances the efficiency of the shaping algorithm, since I frames are usually the biggest frames in the stream"
can I make any changes in the shaping value, so that I can achieve a constand bitrate below 384kbps?
Help me pls...
With rgrds,
vlcuser.

I can't help you on this, but will request that you stop using stupid capitalisation in your posts.
