Start recording VLC from terminal

Postby Tormund1985 » 17 Aug 2022 10:30

Hi,
I am trying to start VLC through the terminal to start recording streaming audio but I have not been able to get it to record.
The command with which I open the stream is as follows:

Code: Select all

cvlc -vvv tcp/wav://xxx

Many thanks

Edit: with --sout=file/ogg:go.wav I am saving but not reproducing at same time. Is not possible? Thanks

Does anyone know how to set a size limit and have it restart automatically?

Thanks in advance
