Network Stream and saving issue

Postby jprokos » 05 Feb 2018 00:52

Any help would be appreicated.

When I save a network stream locally and choose "Quicktime" as the encapsulation method the audio does not play with the movie.
When I save the same network stream using "MPEG-4" the audio plays but there is no video stream.
