Ok i have the new Vlc beta 1 and it has the option for FLV thankfully.

But heres my question. from this page:
http://wiki.videolan.org/Flv

I found this code:

Code: Select all

#transcode{vcodec=FLV1,acodec=mp3,samplerate=44100}:std{access=http,dst=192.168.1.118:8081/stream.flv}
But where do i place the "stream.flv"

i want to put this in a swf with the url of "http://192.168.1.118:8081/stream.flv"

i have searched the forums and have had no luck figuring out where the actual file is placed on my pc

thanks for your responses

sample.flv is your output!

Your syntax appears to be creating a stream available for viewing, but you are missing the syntax that will create a file on your computer. To save the output to a file there must be something along the lines of:

:standard{access=file,mux=MUXER,dst=FILENAME}

I've never tried to save a flash file out, so I don't know how well this works for flash. However, I believe you must have additional syntax similar to this to write a file. Hopefully, if I'm wrong, somebody will correct me.

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{vcodec="FLV1",vb="800",scale="1",acodec="mp3",ab="128",samplerate="44100",channels="2"}:duplicate{dst="display",dst="std{access="file",mux="flv",dst="192.168.1.118:8081/stream.flv"}"}
this is what i got but VLC cant pick up the .flv always gives a error

do i keep in the access=http ?

also @ J-B..

what do you mean sample.flv is my output?

could someone show me a FULL working code as what i have will not open up in VLC at all.

also the beta version is showing a different codec for flv its like mp1v or something like that.

thanks so much i really need to have this ready for our presentation( wedding) Saturday night
