VLC crashes randomly after streaming

[strike1555]

Hello, here is my situation.


I have a TV capture card with a stream coming from my Dish Network box into it. The capture card is connected to a server that is always running and my goal is to get a constantly streaming VLC to a client computer.

The client computer is a simple, low power netbook connected to a TV. It's only purpose is to receive the video and output it to the tv (basically a sling system).

The Dish Network box only has one channel so that never is changed. My command line output on the vlc server is the following:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -vvv dshow:// :dshow-vdev="WinFast TV2000 XP WDM Video Capture" :dshow-adev="Line In (Realtek High Definitio" :dshow-tuner-channel=3 --sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=800,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.0.2:8082} --qt-start-minimized

The server will run fine for usually 12 hours or so, but then I will find that VLC has crashed on the server . I enabled "debug logging" from the view menu to see if I could get some information. However, im not sure if it's the right kind of logging, the information doesn't help much. It's a very large file at over 60 mb. The first 400 hundred or so lines seem to be the stream initializing itself and I don't see anything out of the odinary.

The last 65,000 lines are the following message:

Code: Select all

main warning: late buffer for mux input (368646)

With different numbers
]As for the client, here is the log file (i've removed a lot of duplicates to save thread space but please let me know if you need the entire thing.

Code: Select all

I have been trying to isolate the problem to a specific program or issue but can't seem to isolate it.
