Streaming over http: how to loop ?

Postby MattB » 06 Apr 2011 16:14

Hi
I'm running VLC 1.1.4 on Ubuntu. I am streaming a file over http, which works fine. However I need the file to stream continuously, i.e. loop so my clients just keep going indefinitely. Can this be set *through the GUI* ? (I've not succeeded in getting the streaming to work using the command line :oops: )

The "generated stream output string" produced through the GUI is:

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=800,fps=15,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:http{mux=ts,dst=:8080/} :no-sout-rtp-sap :no-sout-standard-sap :sout-keep
I've tried adding --loop in different places, but no joy.
Thanks
Matt
