 Hello, I am using VLC media player 2.0.8 Twoflower on an Ubuntu 12.04
machine.
I have successfully recorded an RTSP stream by using the following command:
 vlc rtsp://192.168.1.100/live/h264/ch1 --sout=file/ps:record1.mp4

 Now I need to timestamp the video that is recording, meaning the video
must display the time when it is being recorded.

 I managed to play a video with the current timestamp using:
 vlc --sub-filter "marq{marquee=\$t
(\$P%%),color=16776960}:marq{marquee=%H:%M:%S,position=6}" video1.mp4
 I added --sout=file/ps:record1.mp4 option to the above command but with no
luck, the video records but doesn't display the time during playback.
