Hi,
Anyone know how what is the reason for not getting sound via stremdev to VLC (livna RPM package) or mplayer?
VDR is in separate PC so I accessed it via http (port 3000 and using ES as written in README of the streamdev). Picture is ok but no sound. However, I'm only able to use ES with mplayer - not with VLC. If I don't add ES to the URL then picture is fine with VLC but no audio (and there should not be any audio).
VDR is 1.3.35 streamdev is from cvs (2005-11-24 checked out)

ES means client gets stream without container. Contents of one TS PID only.
With "mplayer" or "gxine", try "PES" instead of "ES". With "VLC", try not to use "streamdev-server".

The README file should be updated because with PES mplayer works fine! Thanks a lot!
Why VLC does not work with streamdev-server? What other alternatives there are for network streaming?
Any idea if there is a tool that allows channel switch (playlist could be used but that is not very elegant solution)?

VDR MPEG-PES support has just been added to VLC and it should work with streamdev too (at least for PES streams). You'll just need to get a nighty build or compile from SVN yourself. More information: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=50602#50602
Streamdev can also use external MPEG-TS muxing that is more VLC-compatible: http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2005-March/000974.html
