Can not create stream output

I can create a stream output on VLC 0.8.6c, but can't seem to work with any newer versions. VLC 2.0.5 or the latest nightly both fail to create a stream output using the VLM or not.

Could someone look at this log and tell me what the problem maybe?

Code: Select all

Use the rtp stream out module.

Well I tried 2.1.0 in the mean time as well, that got me a stream going but TTL isn't working. I set it in preferences from -1 to 15 and reset still getting nothing beyond itself for some reason.

RTP also doesn't work currently with our setup and how things are required sadly.

I found in vlc-2.1.0-git-20121220-0003-win32.exe I had to set in the preferences for the stream policy setting, change the drop down to UDP, and change the TTL there instead of under Automatic. Once I did that, everything is working successfully and good to go. VLM and regular single stream are working fine now.

Good.
