How to put VLC into pipe like -FFMPEG | -VLC | -ECHO

[OleJak]

I found this interesting http://wiki.videolan.org/Uncommon_uses Article. It say that for example we can do something like

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i 0.flv -f asf - | vlc -

I wonder If we could do something like

Code: Select all

ffmpeg -i 0.flv -f asf - | vlc some args... some other args - | someOtherProgramm -

Is it possible? has any one tried?

I'm not sure but I guess you can stream to stdout using --sout file/mux:- (mux must be the muxer format)
Look here http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation: ... m_with_VLC and try with '-' as a file name.
