no suitable sout mux module for 'http/ffmpeg{mux=flv}://:8080/stream'

[nozomi]

We are trying to use the stream feature of vlc.
it works fine on the build machine, but when we try to run the c-ode on the device we are working upon, it gives the following error:
no suitable sout mux module for 'http/ffmpeg{mux=flv}://:8080/stream'
stream chain failed for 'transcode{vcodec=264,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=:8080/stream}'
cannot start stream output instance , aborting


we have copied the libraries and dependencies required in the target device.

Kindly suggest a solution

thanks

http is not a sout module, you want std{access=http...

hello sir,
we are new to this..
can you please explain a bit..

following is the code we are trying to run:

#include <vlc/libvlc.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <stddef.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
libvlc_instance_t *vlc;
const char *url;


const char *sout = "#transcode{vcodec=h264,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=:8080/stream}";
const char *media_name = "stream";


url = "file:///videos/testvideo.mp4";


vlc = libvlc_new(0, NULL);
libvlc_vlm_add_broadcast(vlc, media_name, url, sout, 0, NULL, true, false);
libvlc_vlm_play_media(vlc, media_name);

sleep(60); /* Let it play for a minute */

libvlc_vlm_stop_media(vlc, media_name);
libvlc_vlm_release(vlc);
return 0;
}

Sorry, but first, do your streaming with VLC and then move to libVLC.

We have done streaming with vlc..It works fine..the output stream 'sout' we used in above code is obtained from VLC streaming only.

Kindly suggest..

Then look at your logs.
