streaming problem

[pengyou54]

Now I used vlc-0.8.6 to stream MPEG-2 transport streams which contain H.264 video to Tandberg H.264 hardware decoder in multicast mode. The Tanberg decoder didn't work with it. It could not detect the video. But I used another video server software to do it again. The decoder worked well. What is wrong with VLC streaming?

Is the VLC remux the MPEG-2 transport stream again into MPEG-2 TS?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

Well yes but it depends how you configure it. Also VLC 0.8.6 is way out of date.

Actually I tried newest version of VLC. I used two VLC on two different machines, one as a server and the other as a client. In the server side, I streamed a H.264 transport stream file. However in the client side, the vlc didn't receive any video packets. I used Wireshard to find out those video packets coming. But vlc didn't receive it. Then I went back to the old version. I found there
are significant changes since the version of 0.8.6. But there is lack of documents to introduce its usage.

As to the configuration, could you give me the more detail of it?

Thank you very much!
