SDP export on windows?

[patman]

Am I correct in gathering that SDP export is not operational on windows?

Thanks - Pat

You export thriugh command line.
Example:
vlc -vvv file:///c://sample_100kbit.mp4 --sout=#rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,port=24000,sdp=file://C:/sample.sdp}

However I have issue in transcoding to h264.Otherwise SDP could be exported to streamed.

Are we to assume you are refering to SDP or the Streaming Download Project?

SDP is the resulting implementation of our MMS document and has lead to the development of a MMS streaming receiver for windows media streaming. So now, not only can you view the streaming media in preview mode, SDP receiver downloads (or copies) the stream to your hard disk.

SDP can now download the following protocols, not just mms:
Http v1.0 streaming protocol, Http progressive (simple http download) and of course: mms, mmst and mmsu over both TCP and UDP transport protocols. The current version of SDP (2.0.0) does not support RTSP streaming. This will be featured in the next release.

This appears to be a replacement for mms.

What is MMS?
MMS or ' Microsoft Media Server ' protocol is Microsoft's proprietary network streaming protocol. Microsoft has never released a specification to describe how MMS actually works, yet it is extensively used by their Microsoft media player software. MMS protocol can be used on top of TCP and UDP transport protocols over any network medium. Its primary use is to stream live or prerecorded audio and video content to your computer without any need to download a file before playing.

No, I mean Session Description Protocol. I need it to be able to get Quicktime clients to pick up a multicast stream sent from VLC on a Windows XP box.

When I try the command line export the error log returns "unknown command" or similar, and some of the documentation mentions no SDP on windows.

Ok - I just got it - guess I probably mixed up windows and unix syntax.

Thanks heaps!
