stream recording stops after few minutes

[ph0nq]

Hi all,

since this is my very 1st posting on this forum, please bear with me in case I'm acting silly...
I've scanned the net prior to registering here but couldn't find an answer to my "simple" problem.

I'm trying to save an online stream using VLC's GUI (ctrl-r etc.) to a file but the recording always stops after approx. 4-5 minutes.
After that, VLC simply stops writing to the output file, still hogs one CPU, and can not be stopped gracefully any more.

The log file (level 2) created during one my attempts is 38 MB/250 KB in size uncompressed/compressed.
I actually pruned it down to 1 meg by removing all recurring errors and split the rest into 3 parts on pastebin:

I'm using VLC 2.2.4 64-bit, fresh install on Win7SP1.

ANY ideas welcome.
Many thanks.

Cheers,
Chris

Just made an observation that might be helpful: When only watching the very same stream, i.e. not recording it, VLC plays it for hours, until I stop it.
Which also works gracefully in this case.

And no, I'm not running out of disk space...

Hi

I have the same problem. I tried to increase network-caching and avoid duplicating stream but it didn't work.

It's strange because sometimes keeps recording more time, so i think it could be related with CPU/GPU charge, HDD, etc.

I'm tried with last versión, and now with 2.1.2 to prevent crashing issues.

Please tell me if you find a solution

Thanks

I think it is a resource problem.
I've ran test with the same kind of environment (win and vlc version) on a newer and more powerful laptop and didn't observe these problems.
