The VideoLAN Forums

Hello Forum and VideoLAN team,

I am looking for a solution to decode H.263 (later on also H.264) IP based streaming video. This comes as RTP (and RTCP on a second UDP port) via a data broadcasting system (DVB-H).
I have tried, no chance. I have checked the source code and have found that just RTP Payload Type 33 (TS over RTP) and 32 (MPEG video over RTP) is supported.
Are there any intentions to support H.263-2000 (H.263++) and later H.264 as well transmitted as RTP with Payload Type 96 (Dynamic) ?

I would like have such a decoder in order to create a DVB-H testing solution and monitoring device.
My best regards

Torsten Jaekel

try to check if you have installed ffmpeg libraries (http://ffmpeg.sourceforge.net/index.php) on your system, these are responsible for decoding h.263. Then you will probably need to recompile vlc.

You need VLC to be compiled with liveMedia (live.com) support if you wan to use RTSP streams.
