I'm using VLC 0.8.4.a and i'm trying to record a multicast signal.
I goto File->Open network stream and select UDP/RTP Multicast enter teh address and port, select stream output and under the advanced options I select save raw input, specify a path and press OK. so far, it works pretty well, it records. But now my problem, with this multicast signal several TV channels are transported and I dont know how to specify which one. It always, saves teh same channel. Does anybody know a solution?

Thank you. D.

To save the TS you don't need to specify raw input, just save it to a file.

If you can get it to play different channels on screen, that's what will be recorded.

If the broadcast is a TS with multiple streams in it, and VLC is picking the first, I don't think there's a way to select the program in the GUI. You might need to specify the recording at the command line with a 'program' identifier.
