UDP/TS streaming from raw video format

Postby mpichini » 03 Feb 2018 15:44

Hello,

I've a video compression board that receives a PAL input video stream and provides the video in raw video format on a PCIe bus.
I get the video raw data from the processor board via a DMA I/O channel.
Now I want to create a TS/MPEG2 UDP stream to distribute the video to a VLC Client.
Any idea if and how can I achieve this with VLC ?

best regards,
Massimo

I could provide the raw data read from the DMA channel over an UDP connection.

You need to transcode. It's not possible to stream raw video over ts.

See transcoding/streaming documentation on
:!: If you want your problem to be solved :
* First read troubleshooting guide VSG:Main
* Always provide verbose LOGS ! (command line or from gui)
* Always check your issue against a developer build from Nightly Build of VLC
* Tell us when your problem is solved !
