SRT parameter integration

Postby winfried » 05 Jul 2020 20:46

Dear Developers,

would it be possible to integrate more parameters for receiving SRT Streams in VLC? (Menu "Open Network Stream")
Currently it is only possible to specify the URL, which is good, but does not always work. Some SRT streams require settings like "streamid" and "password". I'd love to send and receive SRT streams over my server, but currently the options for reception of SRT are very limited.
If I can answer any questions to help you, please let me know!
And also: If I overlooked the feature I'm asking for, please forgive me.

Many thanks in advance,
Winfried

You can, set those in preferences, or in advanced options on open

Jean-Baptiste. The password part is true in the settings but VLC lacks the ability to use streamid:s with SRT. https://github.com/Haivision/srt/issues/1015

It seems also that the latest version of VLC 3 is compiled with an old version of SRT, might be good with an update to at least 1.41. I might be wrong here but think it uses 1.23 as source. Dont think STREAMID is supported in that version of SRT.

Any status or progress or plans regarding StreamID and/or version of SRT? :)
