questions about streaming video and saving stream

[pengyou54]

Now I have two question about streaming functions of VLC 1.1.4

1. In the VLC 1.1.4 streaming output function, there is an option in choosing new destination: RTP Audio/Video Profile. What is the difference between it and RTP/MPEG Transport Stream? Can we use VLC to stream a h.264 encoded video file? Or we have to convert the H.264 video file into the MPEG TS file if we want to stream it?

2.Now I want to save the received video stream into a file. In the previous version of VLC, there was an option: dump raw input.But in the new version there is no such option. Now I use a VLC 1.1.4 to stream a MPEG-2 transport stream over the IP network and another VLC to save the received MPEG-2 video in a file. I would like VLC to save the input stream as it read. That is to say the saved video should be the same the original video in the server side. Then I choose file as new destination, "test.ts" as a filename and disable activate transcoding. Although the VLC can save the input stream into the file, the received video is not TS format, but PS format. How can I make VLC save the input stream in TS format?

Thank you very much. I need any help on these questions very much.

I have the same question.
I tried both. But, only with RTP/MPEG Transport Stream, my receiver can display the video I stream. By setting RTP Audio/Video Profile, the receiver side cannot display anything, I'm not sure there are something being received though.
Can anyone help?

looking at the exact command line string generated might help see if there are any differences.
