The VideoLAN Forums

Hello,

I have looked around and have not found anyway to do this. I have a customer that needs to stream his computer desktop. This I can do, but do to his workload at the time this needs to take place it needs to be a simple double click of an icon to start. Unfortunately I can not use a third party macro builder app to run a macro. I can't find anything in VLC that would allow me to do this.

Any ideas?

Hi, you could provide a shortcut and use VLC's --sout option on the special source file screen://.

I think you are talking about the "generate stream output stream"
:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,scale=Auto,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:udp{mux=ts,dst=224.5.0.22:1234} :no-sout-all :sout-keep
But how do I save this and trigger it to start?
