libVLC invmem transcoding fails on MPEG-TS but works with PS
Posted: 10 Sep 2009 16:38
I've been messing around with libVLC for the last couple of days, mainly experimenting with the fake and invmem modules. I'm trying to use VLC to generate MPEG-TS content, but without much success up to now. I was able to use vlc (not libvlc) to transcode pictures through fake:// to MPEG-TS and it worked flawlessly. Now, trying to be a little more fancy, I'm trying to implement a custom drawing routine as the source material for libvlc transcoding process through the use of the invmem codec. My problem is that libVLC segfaults when I try to transcode to MPEG-TS, but works when I'm trying with MPEG-PS. It makes no sense to me since the MPEG video encoding should be done in the same way and consumes the same video frames (in my case PictureData.data), and only the packetizing/muxing should be affected by that change.
In fact, it does work a bit, but only for 1.33 secs of MPEG-TS content.
Valgrind does see a couple of invalid read/writes, but I'm unable to figure if I'm the one doing something wrong or if it's invmem or the transcoding/muxing process. In fact, it sees the same faulty read/writes in both the MPEG-TS and MPEG-PS generation, but TS segfaults (when not run with valgrind) and PS doesn't.
Any ideas, pointers or anything?
Thanks,
Martin
