Hi
I'm looking for the best way to stream the output from my tv card across
the network. I've currently got this script which works ok but uses too
much CPU since its doing mpeg4 transcoding... is there any way i can
send it in a fairly uncompressed format that isnt too CPU intensive?
Also I'd much rather if it only did the encoding and transmiting when
someone is actually watching it.

Many thanks in advance! :)

my current script:-

vlc -vvv
v4l:/dev/video0:norm=pal:size=640x480:channel=1:adev=/dev/dsp:audio=0
--sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=3000,ab=96,vt=800000,keyint=10,deinterlace}:std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=224.1.1.1}' --ttl 12
