Streaming File to Network too fast?

Hi,

I hope this problem is quite trivial...

I'm writing a tv-signal to file, and want to stream
this file to the network (live)
My problem is, that the stream runs too fast, so comes
to the end of the file and stops. How can I teach VLC
to stream in "real-time"?

Thnx

*edit : we're talking about winxp

I have a similar problem. I need send/recive streaming in the same machine. I develop a java app that decrypt a video file and send via udp to port 1234. The stream run too fast and i just can view 2 or 3 seconds.

All comments will be appreciated.

Thx

I have written a small batch file (Windows):

Code: Select all

@tail.exe -f %1 | <VLCPATH>\vlc.exe -vvv file://- --sout "#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=224.0.0.1:1234}}"
Replace paths and stream options to satisfy your needs.
Simply drop your growing file onto it and the broadcast should never finish.

Good luck,
ALu.
