[streaming] Streaming from VLC 0.8.1 to Windows Media Player

[Ralph Billes]

This has been covered before and the suggestion I have seen on the lists is to
download an MPEG2 codec for WMP. I did this by installing a trial version of
WinDVD from www.intervideo.com. This did not make any change to WMP's
behaviour. WMP9 connects and the stream starts but never gets beyond the
"Connecting" message.

I'm testing on a Windows 2000 system without service packs. VLC 0.8.1 for
Windows plays the stream fine. The server is delivering a stream via HTTP. The
settings are:

vlc -vvv
v4l:/dev/video0:norm=pal:frequency=196250:size=640x480:channel=0:adev=/dev/dsp:audio=1:samplerate=48000
--sout
'#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=1024,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{
dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,url=192.168.0.94:80}}' --ttl 12

Has anyone got WMP working with a VLC server?

Thanks,
Ralph.
