[vlc] Video in TS hangs in decoder ??

[Václav Koldus]

Hi all,

I'm trying to play h264 encoded video stored in mpeg transport stream. 
Vlc opens the file, recognizes TS and both
audio and video stream. But instead of starting decoding the video it 
just hangs and waits for god
knows what. The waiting time is sometimes quite short sometimes veery 
long. It starts playing eventualy but
such delay is unacceptable for me. Here's what log gives:

Don't get confused with "mch264" decoder module. It's my own module 
using MainConcept decoder SDK.
It acts just the same with ffmeg decoder.

Anyone has any clue why is that?

What exactly does
"main debug: thread 114696: secret message triggered at misc/block.c:228 
(Connection timed out)"
mean???


Thanks in advance.
