[karapetyan]

Hello, Guys.

VLC detect dshow-vdev:// tv-tuner "AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture", i can capture and view image from cam, in stream information video codec in VLC i see YUY2.

Now i trying transcode and stream, but something wrong:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" dshow:// :dshow-vdev="AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture" :aspect-ratio=16x9 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,deinterlace,vb=280,width=320,height=240,scale=1,acodec=none}:http{mux=ts,dst=192.168.0.2:6666,ttl=200}

when i trying open stream in vlc http://192.168.0.2:6666
shows next messages:

May be i should use another tv-tuner? Could you recommend a model of TV tuner that works fine with VLC?

[VLC_help]

More details about your network configuration, please.

[karapetyan]

VLC now start streaming, because timer (playing time) start from 7 munite and "jumping"...
seems like another vlc bug...
--
Laptop connect to internet, after that connect to VPN, there get adress
192.168.0.2 and stream to himself.

another vlc have ip 10.1.4.149 and connect to 10.192.168.0.2:6666 via http and trying stream to himself 10.1.4.149:7777 (because vlc that streaming from tv-tuner have low bandwidth internet connection)

[karapetyan]

Network configuration works fine, because when i try stream from another source (IEEE1394 on Cam) - streaming works fine
in same adresses and ports.

[karapetyan]

on pinnacle 510-USB Same problem

[VLC_help]

I don't still understand your network config. Does the server computer have multiple IP addresses?

[karapetyan]

no.
vlc server have 1 ip-adress 10.1.4.149

[VLC_help]

OK, why you then set dst=192.168.0.2:6666 ?

[karapetyan]

because on server i get stream from http://192.168.0.2:6666

[VLC_help]

I don't understand.

First vlc player installed on laptop and camcorder connected to laptop via usb tv-tuner (svideo input)
laptop connects to VPN and get ip-adress 192.168.0.2:6666
after that on laptop i start bat-script

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" dshow:// :dshow-vdev="AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture" :aspect-ratio=16x9 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,deinterlace,vb=280,width=320,height=240,scale=1,acodec=none}:http{mux=ts,dst=192.168.0.2:6666,ttl=200}

second vlc player installed on server (10.1.4.149)
on server i run next script:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" http://192.168.0.2:6666 :sout=#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=10.1.4.149:7777} --loop --http-reconnect

clents run script:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" http://10.1.4.149:7777

[VLC_help]

192.168.* and 10.* are on different private subnets. You cannot connect from 192.168.* to 10.* or vice versa.

brings us back to

Network configuration works fine, because when i try stream from another source (IEEE1394 on Cam) - streaming works fine
in same adresses and ports.

Code: Select all

laptop(192.168.0.2:6666) | VPN vlc.exe dshow:// :dshow-vdev="AVerMedia USB Polaris Analog Capture" :aspect-ratio=16x9 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,deinterlace,vb=280,width=320,height=240,scale=1,acodec=none}:http{mux=ts,dst=192.168.0.2:6666,ttl=200} server (10.1.4.149) vlc.exe http://192.168.0.2:6666 :sout=#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=10.1.4.149:7777} clents vlc.exe http://10.1.4.149:7777

[karapetyan]

192.168.* and 10.* are on different private subnets. You cannot connect from 192.168.* to 10.* or vice versa.

why? if i have appropriate rules/routes on firewall.

[VLC_help]

Have you checked that via Wireshark?

[karapetyan]

my network configurations works fine.
when i start same VLC-scripts in same network configuration but use another video source (instead tv-tuner i use camcorder connected directly to laptop via ieee1394) all works fine.

[VLC_help]

Well since the error is

access_http error: cannot connect to 192.168.0.2:6666
main warning: connection timed out

then the server isn't either running or it isn't streaming anything. You can check logs about how well the streaming starts.
