Not transcoding into mp4v - missing a module on my pc?

[ZeusDK]

Hi all

When I want to stream a device or file to QuickTime then only the audio works, no picture is showing up:

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=256,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=1}:rtp{sdp=rtsp://127.0.0.1:9000/test.sdp}:

Why? Is it because I don't have the mp4v module on my winXP pc? (Using Vlc 0.9 nightly)

Getting this:

Code: Select all

[00000667] ffmpeg encoder error: cannot open encoder [00000658] stream_out_transcode private error: cannot find encoder ((null)) [00000658] stream_out_transcode private error: cannot create video chain [00000664] main packetizer error: cannot create packetizer output (I420)

Is there something about ffmpeg that I have not installed (yet)?

Have tried with different versions including the 0.9 SVN.

Getting the error in all versions and have deleted the whole directory before reinstall.

Can anyone help?

I had a very similar error. I spent an hour searching on the web before it crossed my mind to try changing the bitrate (duh!).

I changed it from 196 to 128 and the encoding worked like a charm. Have you tried that?
