VideoLAN Multicat output stream not playing

Postby packerbc2 » 13 Apr 2016 10:04

Hi!

I have a problem playing the multicast stream using Multicat.

I read the examples on http://ivoire.dinauz.org/blog/post/2010/09/02/Multicat. My situation is similar to http://vlc-videolan.10979.n7.nabble.com ... d5323.html. (Playback UDP multicast in Set-Top-Box).

The following is the steps that I take to do multicast:
1. clone multicat-2.1 to Linux server
2. 'make' and 'make install'
3. transfer the 'program.ts' to Linux server
4. run 'ingests -p 1537 program.ts'. Log: 'debug: end of file reached'. Able to see the generated aux file.
5. run 'multicat -p 1537 -U program.ts @239.255.0.26:1234'. Log: 'debug: socket definition: bind:239.255.0.26:1234'.
6. VLC in Windows 7, open network stream with 'udp://@239.255.0.26:1234'. No stream is displaying.

I have tried with 'multicat_validate folder', log is as following:
0
error: file folder/405703.ts doesn't exist (No such file or directory)

I have no idea where this '405703.ts' comes out.

Can anyone please help with some advice?

P.S.
VLC 2.2.1 on Windows 7
multicat 2.1 on Linux (Ubuntu 10)
