Time stamp

Postby kempvet » 10 Oct 2005 13:04

is there any way to time stamp the stream when saved to file, by this I mean that the time is hard coded into the stream so that the file when replayed will show the time ticking as the file plays (ie show the time ticking last week when the file was created last week rather than the current time).

you could use the time subfilter and hardcode it in the video using #transcode with the soverlay option. More info is available in chapter 03 of the streaming howto ( http://www.videolan.org/doc/ )

?????

how about placing the exact code in the following that will hard code the time into the stream in the example below so most of the novices to the videolan can pick it up easy


% vlc -vvv input_stream --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128,deinterlace}:
standard{access=udp,mux=ts,url=239.255.12.42,sap,name="TestStream"}'


Return to “VLC stream-output (sout)”
