Stream only audio from (Hikvision) IP camera

Postby mikkol » 27 Jun 2019 10:41

Hello,

I would like to stream audio only from a stream produced by an Interlogix (Hikvision) IP camera.

With

Code: Select all

cvlc -vv rtsp://10.168.0.201:64001/Streaming/Channels/1 :sout-mux-caching=1000000 --vout none --sout "#transcode{acodec=ogg,ab=128,aenc=ffmpeg:http{mux=ogg,dst=:8080/}"
I get

<log moved to pastebin>https://pastebin.com/CYKfFue8</pastebin>

where the operative result is that it
could not create the chain
and
cannot start stream output instance, aborting
.

Where is this going wrong?

To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.

From windows command line or linux or macos terminal, launch vlc with options -vv and --logfile=file

  • Windows example: vlc.exe -vv --logfile=c:\vlclog.txt
  • Linux example: vlc -vv --logfile=vlclog.txt, or vlc -vv 2>&1 > logfile.txt
Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)

Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.
:!: If you want your problem to be solved :
* First read troubleshooting guide VSG:Main
* Always provide verbose LOGS ! (command line or from gui)
* Always check your issue against a developer build from Nightly Build of VLC
* Tell us when your problem is solved !

Thanks for the reply. The messages are at the pastebin address quoted in the original message. They were too large to paste inline into the original message.

The version is stated at the beginning of the messages. The OS version is buried somewhere in the messages, so for clarity's sake, it is Fedora 30 64-bit.
