I am trying to get a simple VOD service running on my home desktop (Windows Vista) so that I can watch stuff elsewhere.
Trying some examples and howtos, I got the RTSP VOD working with the following:
Starting VLC up with telnet interface and no GUI
Code: Select all
vlc -I telnet --control telnet --telnet-password xxxxxxx --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:5554
connecting to the server with putty and loading a config file with the following lines:
Code: Select all
new Test1 vod
setup Test1 output #transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=0,scale=0.5,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}
setup Test1 mux mp2t
setup Test1 input "E:\[series]\test.avi"
setup Test1 enabled
95% of the files are 350 mb divx files.
The few howto's I found are all based on the assumption I am using the RTSP protocol.
Could someone post the flags I need to run VLC and the VOD object parameters for HTTP. For bandwidth considerations I would like to keep the transcode option.
Thank you all in advance!
