getting RTP Stream / media / codec information via CLI

Postby mahsrum » 20 Feb 2021 22:14

Using GUI it's easy
run/play stream
open - Window - Media Information - Codec Information
done

HowTo get this info via CLI (and optional export to the file)
I need to scan and index list of different UDP / RTP sources

Sorry vlc have no --info directive

now i have "wrong" way with
/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC vlc --extraintf=logger --verbose=2 --logfile=/Users/maxim/vlc_log.text  --logmode=text --file-logging udp://@233.81.116.1:1234

than i can use grep, awk... for parsing.

Can you clarify your solution?
