VLC and Windows Media Server

Hi everyone!

Is it possible to stream from VLC to the Windows Media Server?

Thanks!

Hello,

Yes it is, using "MMSH" as access, "ASFH" as output. You might need to transcode video to "DIV3". You can get more information by searching the forum, that already contains several detailed answers for this question.

Sorry, but I can't find anything helpfull about the Media Server!

I read an article about Jon Johansen who found the key for the .nsc file and the implementation is in work. But I also read in another forum about using VLC and the Media Server! And I read that the new version does this: Windows Media Server RTSP support
But I couldn't find any explaination what this means!

Thats why I'm confused!

I want to stream a dvb-t signal from the vlc media player to a windows media server! I tried this by using http but it didn't work....

Thanks

VLC to Windows Media Server only works for Win2000 not Win2003 yet (?), the server simply disconnects. DIV3 or any WMV1/2/3 for video should work and mp3 or wma for audio.

The .nsc files are used for multicast streaming and generated on a Windows Media Server (and basically hold the announcement info or rather IP and port info where the stream is to be found). VLC is not yet able to read/support those. WM RTSP is partially supported for reception but not for output. See: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/329
