1.0.3 Fails to Seek with RTSP VLC Server -> VLC Client

I am attempting to have VLC server an RTSP stream. Works.

Then I am trying to play that same RTSP stream, and seek within it. I had read TRICKPLAY is supported within the RTSP stack and since 1.0.0 been implemented in VLC.

Yet, when watching the stream, no seeking, nor positioning, nor speedup option is available in the player.

The SERVER SOUT is as follows:

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{width=320,height=240,vcodec=mp4v,vb=500000,fps=15,venc=ffmpeg{keyint=8,hurry-up,vt=800000},acodec=mp4a,ab=64,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,port=501,port-audio=11002,port-video=11000,sdp=rtsp://192.168.2.205:501/0f0beaec-4cc3-4738-99a6-ce119e664653/a7c1051a-e30b-486f-a15a-9cad93d5302a.sdp}}
The source is an AVI (indexed), so should be no problem addressing the index.

It may be that I am not setting up the stream properly to allow for TRICKPLAY?

Any pointers or acknowledgment as to this is an issue and not me, or is it just unsupported on the service side of VLC.

Thanks
Shawn

RTSP broadcast mode does not support seeking currently.
