Hello,

I just discussed this with <dionoea> on irc. I'm trying to transcode
and stream a local PS MPEG stream which I get via http. So I want
to do http -> transcode -> http basically.

What works is
vlc -vvv fav.avi --sout
   '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mp4a,scale=.5,vb=256,ab=64}:
    standard{access=http,mux=ogg,url=:8999}'
vlc -vvv http://localhost:3000/PS/3

not working is my goal:

vlc -vvv http://localhost:3000/PS/3 --sout
   '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mp4a,scale=.5,vb=256,ab=64}:
    standard{access=http,mux=ogg,url=:8999}'
    --http-caching 10000  --http-reconnect

Error messages are:
[00000271] stream_out_transcode private debug: late picture skipped 
(1143824928442900)
over and over again.

I also tried (not working)

vlc -vvv http://localhost:3000/TS/3 --sout \
   '#duplicate{dst=display,
   dst=transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mp4a,scale=.5,vb=256,ab=64}:
   standard{access=http,mux=ogg,url=:8999}}' \
   --http-reconnect --http-caching 1000 \
   2>vlc.log

[00000315] main video output warning: late picture skipped (505756)

CPU load is not a problem.

The http-caching parameter has no effect (I also would expect a
startup delay with it). (after this suggestion:
http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=55506)

I tried mux=ogg and mux=ts.

vlc version is Debian/unstable 0.8.4

Thanks for any input,

Jan
