How do I make it stop buffering on the receiving end?

[Videogamer555]

Note, that I'm using Windows 10 x64 for my OS, so I don't know if this is strictly a problem with the Windows version of VLC, or if it affects all versions of VLC (including the Linux version).

This problem is something that happens online (keeps going into buffering), but this is happening on my own computer (one instance of VLC is streaming out, while the second instance of VLC is receiving the stream). On the streaming out side, I've selected my webcam as the source (ctrl+c and then select my webcam), and then set streaming (rather than playing) as the output method. In the dialog box for protocol I selected HTTP, and for transcoding I selected "Video - Theora + Vorbis (OGG)".

Then on the receiving side I simply did ctrl+n and typed in the URL "http://127.0.0.1:8080/". It now plays, but every couple seconds it needs to stop to buffer. That's one of those things that happens on a slow internet connection (2 computers connected over the internet), that should NEVER happen when both instances of VLC are running on the same physical computer.


Here's the log from the receiving side, with verbosity set to the highest possible level of "debug".

Can somebody take a look at this and tell me how to fix this?

It should actually not make any differences whether it's two VLC instance on the same computer, or two VLC instances on different computers. The bandwidth usage is the same.

Based on the other messages in the logs, can you tell me why it's resetting (and tell me how to fix it)? The bit rate is only 800kbps. That's not very high for 640x480 video.
