Failed in transcode video under Linux

Postby tiantao » 12 Jul 2004 10:32

Hi all,
I am using vlc0.7.2 under Linux. I want to transcode a video and multicast it to other machines. I have tried this non-transcode one successful:
vlc -vvv test.avi --sout '#transcode:std:{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.20.30.40:1234}'
but when I tanscode the video and multicast it, then it fails:
vlc -vvv test.avi --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=792}:std:{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.20.30.40:1234}'
then I cannot receive the multicast.
what's wrong did I make? Did I made wrong in the vlc command line or I missed some module in compiling?
could some one give me some suggestion? Thank you!

I don't think you're supposed to have the : after std. Try

Code: Select all

vlc -vvv test.avi --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp1v,vb=792}:std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.20.30.40:1234}'

sorry, i typed it wrong, I didn't have the ":" after "std".
I mean I have been using the code what you typed, but it doesn't work.

What VLC messages are being generated on the Linux server?

Any chance that it doesn't have a successful ffmpeg build, so that while it can stream an arbitrary file, it doesn't actually have the CODEC needed when you request MPEG compression?
