No sound with MS Media Player

Hi!

I've installed a Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T Card on Debian Sarge Kernel 2.6.13. Now I'm streaming from this computer to a Windows XP computer! When I watch the stream with the VLC Media Player on XP its ok, but when I use the MS Media Player I get only video but no sound!

I start the VLC with the following command:

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv --dvb-frequency=562000000 --dvb-adapter=0 --dvb-bandwidth=8 --program=514 --sout 'std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=:1234}'
I start the MS Media Player with:

Code: Select all

mms://serverip:1234
I also tried different codex (WMA, DIV...) but its always the same!

Does anybody know this problem????

You may have to transcode to something Windows Media Player would like to see or hear. I've found mp3 audio to be acceptable to WMP.

Code: Select all

sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,vb=512,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=64,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=10.203.71.90:80}}
This does work with WMP version 9.

I just realised that I get an error when I use mp3

(ffmpeg encoder error: cannot find encoder for MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3)

I searched for this problem and after that I compiled ffmpeg with mp3lame but this didn't help!

:(

Any ideas????
