Thanks Alex,

However, the problem remains. I also tried splitting the elementary streams:

vlc -vvv v4l:// :v4l-adev="/dev/audio" :v4l-vdev="/dev/video0"
:v4l-norm=1 :v4l-width=320 :v4l-height=240 :v4l-fps=15 :v4l-audio=2
--sout '#duplicate{dst="transcode{vcodec=mp4v, vb=1024, acodec=mpga,
ab=192, sfilter=time, soverlay, channels=2,
audio-sync}:es{access-video=udp, mux-video=ts,
dst-video=192.168.200.10:1234, access-audio=udp, mux-audio=ts,
dst-audio=192.168.200.10:1235}"}' --sout-all

the tcpdump trace show packets only destined for port 1235, and a VLC
instance listening on port 1235 receives the audio. however, no packets
are transmitted to port 1234.

the debug output shows no initialization for video output.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
GA
