Hi,
Has anyone been able to run VLC, used as a stream server, without streamdev?
I tried without success: vlc -vvv v4l:/dev/video0 [...etc...] but it fails with a "can't access /dev/video*". I'm still lost/learning the framework, so could someone be so kind to explain me the relation between vdr and /dev/video*.
I have a budget (skystar2) card, is that the reason why /dev/video* doesn't get available? do I need any additional kernel driver? Or, is it possible to have 'vdr' (or xine/softdevice plugins) push the selected channel towards /dev/video*, so it can be read by vlc?
Main reason I want this is to have OSD on the stream vs streamdev. If you know of another alternative to get streaming+OSD then I'm also interested.
Thanks a lot for your help
