How to Check my stream Working or not Command line options

[bhanuchandar.k]

Hi All,

I am new to VLC . Can I get to know my http/rtsp any live stream working or not throught vlc command line options .

I need to write a script which will detect given stream url is working or not . I have tried curl -Is "http url " it will give 200 OK . But If I am trying in Windows VLC player as a network stream it is giving error .

I need a command which will check the given stream working or not .

thanks & regards
Bhanu

U can use something like

Code: Select all

ffprobe -show_streams ${mrl} 2>&1 | egrep 'Stream.+Video:'

I just don`t know how to kill that by timeout faster, that standard ffprobe - about 1 minute
