Hi friends,

how can i stream live tv cast from Tv card ?

i tried but not work ?

any idea about this ?

thanks,

In vista, the vlc ui is a bit buggy but when i copied the command line strings to a .bat file and using the commandline, the server started to work. Here is my latest test file that works about 80 % of time in a win98se clv client. My vista machine is 3.0ghz dualcore and win98se is 2.4 ghz P4.

vlc dvb-t:// :dvb-frequency=738000 :dvb-bandwidth=8 :file-caching=600 :program=65 --sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=768,scale=0.85,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=192.168.255.6:1234}}

The dvb-frequency is the channel packet middle frequency found from the tv channel operator. Program select the wanted channel, this can be traced with the clv streaming without the program parameter and selecting: Tools > Codec Inforamtion > Codec Details.

can it be about tv card

is it possible

i used AverMedia AverTV Super 007 card.

i will try with other cards,

thanks for your advice and helps.

In Windows, the DirectX api hides the hardware from the vlc, so in theory the hardware does not matter, if it has directx drivers as usually they have. My MSI Digivox II usb stick works fine in vista and xp.

thanks for your information,

i will try it and i have to find a specific solution to this problem.
