vlc doesnt send 'end of video" message to receiver

[contremaitre]

Hi

When streaming a file through rtsp and vod, vlc doesn't send anything at the end of video...

So the receiver isn't aware of the end.
Do I miss something ?

Here is what happens (server side):

[00000360] [Media: channel1] ts demuxer debug: eof ?
[00000354] [Media: channel1] main input debug: EOF reached
[00000354] [Media: channel1] main input debug: closing input
[00000360] [Media: channel1] ts demuxer debug: pid list:

[00000360] [Media: channel1] ts demuxer debug: - pid[8191] seen
[00000360] [Media: channel1] main demuxer debug: removing module "ts"

[00000354] [Media: channel1] main input debug: destroying sout
[00000356] main private debug: destroying chain... (name=rtp)
[00000356] main private debug: removing module "stream_out_rtp"
[00000356] main private debug: destroying chain done
[00000354] [Media: channel1] main input debug: thread 3013589904 joined (input/input.c:412)

Now, if I ask the receiver to quit (with a teardown message), vlc server close the connection.
But how can the receiver know when the video is really finished ?

Have something to add :
My previous post was with libvlc.
I also tested with vlc player (0.8.6f), server side (rtsp) and receiver side.

For example, with a 20 second video, the receiver plays until 20s, and then wait for next data, so the clock freeze at 00:00:20.
Is there a way to know (receiver side) when we reach eof ? Then we would know that we don't expect anymore data
