[vlc-devel] Libvlc and imem trouble locating transcode module from raw to vorbis

[William King]

I'm currently trying to use libvlc to handle transcoding and streaming 
from a raw s16l audio source to one of the many streaming codecs that 
libvlc supports. The problem I seem to be running into is that imem 
requests the codec, but not the fourcc and the only codec accepted is 
'raw'. This appears to cause libvlc to be unable to locate a compatible 
transcode module since all of the modules list s16l as the source 
fourcc. After digging into the imem code and how the codec string is 
handled, I don't see a way to specify from my application that the audio 
fourcc is s16l.

Is anyone able to shed some light on the situation?
