Posted: 30 Mar 2019 14:35
Good Morning. I am attempting to get a live stream from a camera over HTTP working. I have the following in a bash script:

Can you see any reason for this to be an issue? Can you point me in a direction to resolve this issue? Any assistance would be appreciated.
Code: Select all
cvlc -vvv \
v4l2:// \
:v4l2-dev=/dev/video0 \
:v4l2-width=1920 \
:v4l2-height=1080 \
:v4l2-fps=25 \
:live-caching=100 \
--sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp2v}:standard{access=http{user=test, pwd=pass}, mux=ts,dst=:8080/BackDoor}' #\
#--live-caching 50 \
#--sout-mux-caching 50 \
#--network-caching 50This appears best I can tell to be where it goes wrong. So far as I can tell the v4l2 drive is loaded and /dev/video0 is available. However I am not an expert when it comes to drivers.[74000668] main input debug: `v4l2://' gives access `v4l2' demux `any' path `'
