I try to set up a Shoutcast stream to the Icecast server running on localhost (Linux) with the following command:

vlc Music/test.ogg --sout="#std{access=shout,mux=ogg,dst=source:hackme@127.0.0.1:8000/audio.ogg}"

But it doesn't want to work:

[00007f82c40009d8] core input error: cannot start stream output instance, aborting

I tried a lot: mp3 streams, version 2.2, etc. The result was the same.

It looks like to me as the destination wouldn't be parsed properly. Can anybody give a hint, what do I do wrong?

(null):8000/hackme@127.0.0.1:8000/audio.ogg

The command line is not understood.

For I ran the same command with a few changes

Code: Select all

anuraag@anu123:~$ vlc ~/Videos/Big_Buck_Bunny_small.ogv --sout="#std{access=shout,mux=ogg,dst=source:hackme@127.0.0.1:8000/BBB.ogg}" :sout-keep &

I am frustrated by this connection refused error. I don't what do I need to do solve this problem.
