[vlc] Re: acessing rtsp and saving to file (openRTSP)

Thu Dec 16 04:58:40 CET 2004

Thanks.

I tried the -t option also... I do see 2 files created, one for video and 
one for audio, but they're both empty. The test I'm running is inside the 
local network, so there should be no firewall issues.

Is there a way to get only one .mp4 or .mov file output, rather than the 
separate audio/video files?

I've attached the debug output below (which also contains the connection 
close after I killed -HUP the process some 5 minutes later):
