Streaming & transcoding trouble - "invalid chain"
Posted: 29 May 2009 09:51
Hi.
I'm trying to stream live video from FireWire DV-camera to 2 different places in my network. First stream has to be transcoded with x264 encoder, second - just redirected to other place. I'm using Windows XP Pro SP3 and VLC player 0.8.6i, because all the 0.9.x releases can't encode H.264.
Too bad it doesn't work with my command line parameters. Here they are (from .cmd file):
When I double-click this .cmd, VLC player outputs video stream on the screen only. There is no any network activity.
This is the fragment of my "messages" log:
Where's the error and what should I do?
