vlc 1.1.2 no video remux on TS output

[natanael]

I can play smoothly a live RTMP stream with 1.1.1 (rtmp://ip_server:port/application/streamname). The stream is H.264/AAC on a FLV container, however when I try to remux it to TS, I can only hear the audio, however no video at all(black screen).
The commandline is:

/usr/bin/cvlc -vvv rtmp://flashserver:1935/live/mystream --sout '#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=0.0.0.0:8000}'

Here is some verbose:

However if I play VOD files there is no problem:

/usr/bin/cvlc -vvv rtmp://flashserver:1935/vod/shoot.mp4 --sout '#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=0.0.0.0:8000}'

Thanks.

same here..
My VLC1.1.1 receives a h264/mp3 stream from my tv-server.
I can watch this stream without any problems, but failing to distribute it to my local network via rtp or http.
The clients have only a black window, but no video..
I tried:

Code: Select all

:sout=#rtp{dst=239.255.2.2,port=5004,mux=ts}

and

Code: Select all

:sout=#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=0.0.0.0:8080}

issue not solved in 1.1.2
but this workaround is for the moment ok.....
:sout=#std{access=http,mux=asf,dst=0.0.0.0:8080}
wait for a fix

Yes you are right, the problem is always with Live Video input, and TS mux as output (works ok if ASF muxed out). I tried even remux the ASF to TS with another VLC session but also the same problem, no video at all. And the problem is still in version 1.1.2
I hope some developper may read about this bug
