VLC streaming flv file to Flowplayer, firefox problem
Posted: 02 Jun 2010 19:25
Hi-
I'm not sure if this is the right forum or not, but hopefully someone here can help me, or point me in the right direction.
I have successfully followed the tutorial at http://wiki.videolan.org/Stream_VLC_to_ ... _and_Flash using: Method 2 H264 and Flash .flv. What I'm doing is grabbing an h.264 stream from an axis p1344 camera. My sout into vlc is :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=256,deinterlace,fps=25,width=425,height=300,acodec=none}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http{mime=video/x-flv},mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=0.0.0.0:8081/mediaplayer/stream.flv}} I am grabbing the camera stream from vlc using rtsp. I'm also using vlc 1.0.0, flowplayer 3.2
Then i've created a flowplayer.html page that loads everything together and it works fine in IE 8, chrome, safari, & opera, but in firefox 3.6.3 it can take anywhere from 45 seconds to 5 minutes for the video to start playing. It seems like firefox is trying to determine the entire length of the video before starting.
