input slave and asx = no audio

Postby michaeldjcox » 05 Feb 2009 19:15

vlc.exe --intf=telnet -vvv "BBC Radio 1.mpg" --input-slave="http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/wm_asx/aod/radio1_hi.asx"

Only gives me my silent video in a direct show window and no sound (in 0.9.8a)?

Are there any magic params that will get me the sound please?

Most probably the timestamps are not coherent and VLC fails to sync both inputs.

In that case, no. Unless you can figure out the right audio-delay value (unlikely).

so the stream can play ok in vlc but if I want to combine it with another source it has to have good timestamps?

Works fine if I save the stream to an mp3 file and then use the mp3 file as the input slave.

Shame I cannot make that all happen within VLC session rather than two.

Is this possible?
