The VideoLAN Forums

I am converting an RTSP stream from a camera to a live HTTP flash stream using the following command (VLC 1.0.6 on Fedora 12):

cvlc rtsp://<source IP address:port>/<stream_name> --sout='#transcode{vcodec=FLV1,acodec=mp3,vb=300,deinterlace,fps=25,samplerate=44100,ab=32}:std{access=http,mux=ffmpeg{mux=flv},dst=<machine's_IP_addr:port>/stream.flv}'

When I run the command it works sometimes and I can see the video stream in a flash player, however other times it fails with the error below. There is no pattern on when it works or fails!

main mux error: cannot add a new stream (unsupported while muxing to this format). You can try increasing sout-mux-caching value
stream_out_transcode stream out error: cannot add this stream

Instead of Flash if I convert it into a HTTP stream using command below, it works consistently.
cvlc rtsp://<source IP address:port>/<stream_name> --sout='#duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=<machine's_IP_addr:port>}}'

Any pointers/advice will be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Still facing the same issue and need the Flash version to work consistently ..... any suggestions or something else to try will be much appreciated!
