Post subject:  MythstreamTV and HDTV recordings: Anyone have this working?

Using R5B7 I only get garbled video and no audio trying to stream HD recordings from my Motorola 6200 via firewire.

I have read that I may need to compile that latest VLC with an --enable-dvb option.

I was curious if anyone had this working...going on a trip in a few days and wanted to be able to stream.

Wiki post of the process I went through to get VLC and DVB working is here: http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=StreamDVBHowTo

The wiki restricts the number links you can enter in one page (how dumb is that?!) so the first two wget entries need http:// at the front!

I understand the need to combat spammers, but pissing off your voluntary contributors is just a turnoff. rant over.

how many links were you posting? I think I have the limit at 10 or 15. I didn't really think people would need more than that.

I've updated the page with the http://

There were only 7 - all except 1 were part of the code wget's.

Scythe,

Thx so much for this!! Got it working just b4 my trip!!

Had some problems getting VLC to compile.
From the ffmpeg ./configure I had to remove:
Code:
--enable-vorbis --enable-theora

And I added:
Code:
--enable-pthreads --enable-xvid


From the VLC ./configure:
Removed:
Code:
--enable-vorbis --enable-ogg --enable-theora

Added:
Code:
--disable-ogg --disable--vorbis


I'm sure this screws something else up like mythburn but I don't care right now.

I got the same error during the make of VLC using both 0.8.4a and 0.8.5-testing2

0.8.5-testing2 already has the changes to the configure.ac

After I got streaming working, it was bombing out on a FOX show Prison Break...seemed to have something to do with it have 6 audio channels or the bitrate. I added a channels=2 to the http vlc command line in mythstream.sh and this seemed to fix it:

Code:
/usr/local/bin/vlc -I http --http-host=:8002  --sout-transcode-fps=$FPS --sout-transcode-deinterlace $1 ":sout=#transcode{vcodec=$VCODEC,acodec=$ACODEC,vb=$VB,ab=$AB,scale=$SIZE,[b]channels=2[/b]}:std{access=http{user=$HTTP_USER,pwd=$HTTP_PWD,mime=video/x-ms-asf},mux=asf,url=:8001}"


I used checkinstall instead of make install for: ffmpeg,mpeg2dec-0.4.0b,libdvbpsi4-0.1.5 and vlc

Sorry if my post is a little rushed...its early and I'm leaving soon.
