VLC 081 vs 062, dump the mpeg2 multicast stream

[toner303]

Holá !

I've tried to update my VLC/VLS System to VLC 0.8.1.
After compiling with no error messages I've tried to call the VLC to dump the mpeg2 stream from my VLS via multicast.
But : my old VLC 0.6.2. runs fine. No furhter Problems. Just the new VLC won't start dumping...

A ping from the new and the old client works to the vls, and backwards.

Now I hope someone can help me here... Here are some verbose-messages :

What means : [00000413] main demuxer warning: no access_demux module matched "udp" ?

did you use make install ?

it is known that "make install"ing 2 versions of VLC will make VLC unusable. You have to delete the installed VLC first.

[toner303]

It was/is a clean client. SuSE 9.2.

[xtophe]

hey

Could you try with udp://@224.0.0.31:1234 ?

And check that you have access_udp module with vlc -l

hth,

[toner303]

No, no better results...

[xtophe]

and for vlc -l ?

[toner303]

Sorry... yes, -l returns the "access_udp"...

Now I think its a network problem. A ping to the Multicastaddress hangs. From my other machine the ping returns like a broadcast.

It's possible that the vlc-081 could not connect to the mcast IP...

[markfm]

Any chance the new client has multiple NICs, that you need to do a "route add" to tell it which one to use for multicast reception?
