mp2v Not working on stream?

[archades]

basically i just started using this program, took a while to understand it all but i get the jist,however when i try to http, encapsulate with mpeg 2 ts, the Mp2v stream never seems to work when transcoding.
im using a hauppage pvr and windows version of vlc.
the mpg file swork on both pc's when i record tv, and when i set vlc to output stream and play locally with no transcoding, and mpeg-ts the video and sound works on the serving pc, but on the client pc it only gets audio. when i use mp4, and others it all works fine, but it doesnt seem to wanna work with the original stream.
anyone else ever have that problem? it SHOULD be just outputting the stream it gets from the card with no other encoding, im on gigabit network and reguarly watch recorded tv over network so theres no slowdown.

sorry for the spelling, quite tired

nifty lil program so far

Are you sure your card supports mp2v. I don't know why you would want to use that codec? But thats all I can gather from it. Any reason as to why you are using Http as opposed to UDP. Try UDP at MP2V perhaps your bitrate is to high?

Try UDP and see if it works...according to the documentation Mp2v sould work across HTTP.

can anyone suggest what's the best video and audio codec for streaming in HTTP or UDP? best means the fastest and most efficient.

for MPEG-TS, i've been using MJPEG and MP4a.

well im guessing it's mpeg-2 which is what the hauppage hardware encodes right? i want it to stream the exact same stream from the hardware card, so i dont need to waste cpu on encoding into a new stream. the other codecs i try seem to all use more cpu than i have avail athlon xp 2500+

ive tried udp but am still dumbfounded as to how to use it
ive tried no transcoding, transcoding, i select UDP and play locally, it works fine locally, but i cannot access it via my other pc

[archades]

tried udp soem more, couldnt figure it out, tried http again, .wmv and audio etc still work, just not mp2v
also if i dont set buffer, it doesnt work
when i try use mp2v it says cannot open encoder, and then a heap of main warning: late buffer for mux input and resampling stopped after 90000 usec, and the stream and media info say codec: YUY2, res 720x576, 29.97fps, codec:araw audio 2 1411kb/s bits per sample 16

this is what i get on my player when trying it with no transcoding,
