ulaw for RTP streaming AV

[baboom]

Hi all,
I'm trying to stream video and transcoded ulaw audio to different IP addresses using RTP.
I'm using VLC 1.0.6 and after having looked quite a lot for a solution I've read that it's recommended to get the input audio in 8 kHz mono format. Is that still true? or new VLC versions have overcome this issue?
I've tried to do it like this:

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{acodec=ulaw,ab=64,channels=1,samplerate=8000}:duplicate{dst=rtp{dst=IPa,port=5004,mux=ts},select="audio",dst=rtp{dst=IPb,port=5004,mux=ts},select="video"}

but no success...
I've seen that these error messages might show where the problem is...

Code: Select all

... stream_out_duplicate debug: duplicated a new stream codec=ulaw (es=1 group=0) main debug: adding a new input mux_ts debug: adding input codec=ulaw pid=68 main error: cannot add this stream stream_out_rtp error: cannot add this stream to the muxer stream_out_duplicate debug: - failed for output 0 stream_out_duplicate debug: - ignored for output 1 main debug: removing module "mpeg_audio" main debug: removing module "araw" main debug: Filter 'mpgatofixed32' (0x85ca3b0) removed from chain main debug: removing module "mpgatofixed32" ...

Any tip?

Thank you!

You can't pass G.711 inside MPEG-TS.

Thank you Rémi,
but RTP only supports PS/TS, doesn't it?
I've tried PS and RAW and i get these error messages:


main mux error: cannot add this stream
stream_out_rtp stream out error: cannot add this stream to the muxer
main packetizer error: cannot create packetizer output (mpga)

Is it impossible to do this? or there must be some code added?
Thanks!

sorry, for maybe becoming boring but any idea about how can I make this work?
It's necessary that I get this working....

Thank you!

Thanks n_skid11,
but I've already had a look at this. That's why I'm asking if there's any posibility to get this work by adding some code or whatever...

Alright, I've seen that in the new versions of VLC it does support ulaw transcoding with RTP so... THANKS TO THE DEVELOPERS!
