Hello,<br>
<br>
I'm sort of a newbie. Ive used vlc as a client for a while, but now I want to start streaming.<br>
BTW: my machine info will be at the bottom...<br>
My goal is to stream to multiple Win Media Player clients. Your documentation says to do something like this:<br>
<br>
<pre class="screen"><strong class="userinput"><code>vlc -vvv my_file --sout '#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,vb=256,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=32,channels=2}:std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=:8080}'<br></code></strong></pre>
<p>for VLC use mmsh://server_ip_address:8080 .</p>
<p>for Windows Media Player use mms://server_ip_address:8080 .</p>
<pre class="screen"><br><strong class="userinput"><code><br></code></strong></pre>
I have tried this several times and with many variations. WMP always says the same thing: Cannot connect to the server(host).<br>
I can ping the server from windows.<br>
It seems like wmp doesn't know how to use the mms url.<br>
<br>
<br>
My server is Gentoo Linux 2.6.15<br>
I built vlc with almost all of the use flags.<br>
<br>
The client machine is a Win2k pro running WMP 9.<br>
<br>
Let me know if you need any more info,<br>
<br>
