HTTP/MPEG-TS stream keeps cutting out.

Postby DrGamut » 02 Feb 2011 07:03

Hi, I'm streaming MPEG-TS files via HTTP using VLC 1.1.4, but every few minutes or so the stream will cut out for a few seconds and the log will show the errors below:

Code: Select all

[0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 300 ms) [0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 745 ms) [0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 1968 ms) [0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (jitter of 10400 ms ignored) [0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (jitter of 10400 ms ignored) [0x7aead0] main input error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (jitter of 10271 ms ignored)
What is causing this? How do I fix it? Here is my command for initiating the stream:

Code: Select all

vlc -I http --http-host drgamut.org:8080 /srv/bTV/btv_17012011.xspf --sout="#gather:std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=drgamut.org:4321/stream.ts}" --sout-keep

No theories? Someone must be familiar with this error.

This is probably a transient buffering/bandwidth problem. RTP is a better idea for live TS streaming.
