"elementary stream" streaming

Postby herman » 05 Apr 2004 16:17

Hello everybody

Is VLS can stream "Elementary stream", for example from video.m2v, audio.ac3 and subtitles.sub ?
If yes : can I stream these three ES at the same times ?

thanks
Herman

Afaik it can't, only mpeg containers are readable by VLS.
However you can use VLC to do that.

As for streaming several ES at the same time, well it is more or less doable as long as you don't intend them to be kept in sync (.ie, they are streamed as independant streams).

I have the same issue. I want to take a stream produced by XviD or SAMPEG and unicast it. My understanding is that these codecs only produce an ES.

My impression is that VLS would be a lower overhead tool. I would be happy to produce a new module to handle ES to TS conversion. Perhaps this code already exists in VLC that can be ported to VLS. Any ideas?
