I'm trying to use VLC to stream an mms:// as MPGA to my VDR-box where I have installed the streamplayer plugin, but I get no sound!
Streamplyer says it's receiving a stream and the bitrate show, the buffering value goes up to the value a specify and the starts over from 0 again.
The problem is that the current (primitive) code waits forever to detect a video packet to know its PID. Audio-only streams are not yet really supported.
One workaround is to mix in some video dummy stream, another is to fool the detection: If you first play a short video clip, and then start the audio stream, streamplayer already has found a PID for video and continues playing even if no video data arrives. This should work even if the http stream reconnects, just exiting and re-starting streamplayer will trigger a new detection.
Hi!
Ooops, I didn't read the README ;) I think the only solution that would work for me is to mix in a video stream, this might be OT - but is there any tips about a program that can help me do that? I've googled a lot around VLC but as I've understood it can't mix two different sources.
Thanks, Lars!
Cheers,
Udo
