I'm trying to set up a http server on the Raspberry PI, and trying to browse what I can stream (both PI Cam and video files) from Raspberry PI server on my client desktop with Ubuntu OS.
The following command is what I'm using. I'm trying to broadcase a h264 file:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ cvlc -vvv testvideo.h264 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=h264,url=192.168.1.60:8090}'

It seems the first block of errors (with bold characters) are related to whether I would like to show the video on my display? I'm not going to show anything on the Raspberry PI server, so, I can bear with those errors. But how about the second block of errors (with bold characters) ?
Any suggestions please??????
Thank you ...
cheers
