[streaming] Re: multicast ttl ??

yes.... streaming from usb webcams.....

OK, updated to newest cvs, and after much pain, got vls working
again......

One problem I found was that, while everything else is in lower case,
"audiomute" is still partially uppercase "audioMute".

--> Line 177 of src/modules/v4linput/v4linput.cpp :
C_String strV4LMute = pApp->GetSetting(GetName()+".audioMute",
"false");

However, the original problem remains...... Modifying the ttl of a
multicast stream in the config file doesn't achieve anything - it is
still sent with a ttl of 1 regardless of the ttl = "x" setting. This
problem is somewhere in the area of:

           else if(m_strType == "multicast")

(line 167 of src/modules/netchannel/netoutput.cpp) but I can't see
why......

Additionally, with the latest cvs, I get either Warning : trashing a
video frame (172188195)... your computer is too slow !  (has to be
murdered with a -KILL to kill it) or a segv when killing vls with
ctrl-c

Regards,

Richard
