PVR 350 doesn´t stream with VLC

[Rafa Chao]

Hi everybody,

I can stream MPEG-2 with Hauppauge 250, but whe i try the same with Hauppauge 350, the vlc hangs in the middle of the process.

I´m using vlc 0.7.2
The instruction is:

/usr/local/bin/vlc -vvv pvr:/dev/video0:norm=pal:size=720x576:frequency=576250:bitrate=3000000:maxbitrate=4000000 --sout udp:239.10.10.239:1239 --ttl 12 --cr-average 1000

The result is as follows:

As you can see, the process stops without any reason, but if i change to hauppauge 250, it works fine.

Can anybody help me? Is there any way to make it work?? I think Hauppauge 250 is obsolete, and stopped its manufacturing.

Thanks,

Did you try the newest release (0.8.1) of vlc already ?

[Guest]

This version has a lot of errors.....


In any case, if you say that is because PVR 350 is not compatible with VLC 0.7.2 ??????????????????????????????
