[streaming] Re: Streaming MPEG2 from Hauppauge PVR150 using VLC for Windows?

[Henrik Kjær Nielsen]

Hi,

When you say that you can make VLC stream MPEG from Hauppauge 350, are you then referring to Windows or Linux? In case it works for you in Windows, how does VLC's Media Resource Locator (MRL) look like?

Sure, the PVR cards will work as capture cards and can therefore deliver raw video and audio in addition to MPEG2.

Thanks

Hi

As far as I know you can do what u want without problems.

I can stream mpeg-2 off of the Hauppauge pvr350 without transcoding.

As far as I know the pvr cards cant delivber anything else than mpeg data,
so if u can read from the card it should work?
