Unable to create sdp file/rtp in vlc 1.1.0

[McKenzie!]

Can anyone of you help me? I have used the below code with a batch file just to create a SDP file for rtp in vlc 1.1.0. My trouble is that it doesn’t create the SDP file. I tried all possible ways but no change. I tried with 1.0.5. And it worked. Also let me know that is there new commands to create the SDP file in 1.1.0? The code I used is:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" d:\justintv\vlc.m3u --sout="#transcode{venc=x264{keyint=128,idrint=2,cabac=0,bframes=0},
vcodec=vp6,vb=448,fps=25,scale=0.75,width=640,height=480,deinterlace{deinterlace=linear},
acodec=mp4a,ab=96,channels=1,samplerate=44100,audio-sync,
vfilter=sharpen{sigma=0.10},{sfilter=':marq{marquee=%%H:%%M:%%S,
position=10,size=30}:marq{color=0xff0000,marquee=any text,
position=8,size=10}'}:gather:rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,
port=1234,sdp=file:\\d:\justintv\vlc.sdp}"

It seems that this is an official drawback that you cannot create SDP file for RTP. The only thing we can do is try and experiment different ways. Your code that you have used with batch file to create a SDP file for RTP seems to be correct to me except the last line. Just do the following changes as I recommend below:

use sdp=file:///d:\justintv\vlc.sdp

I hope it will help and create SDP file as per your requirement.

As far I am concerned the code works in vlc 1.0.5: sdp=file://d:/justintv/vlc.sdp to create SDP file for rtp. It won’t work with vlc 1.1.0. So I suggest you to use vlc 1.0.5 since its working fine with you rather using vlc 1.1.0 which is causing troubleshoot. I think this bug is official. For the time being wait for the officials to correct them and provide necessary solution, till then use vlc 1.0.5 to create a SDP file for rtp. You don’t have another option.

You should try different possible ways you could, as you don’t have any other options. I tried the same as you but it did not work. Try using the below ways as see that you find any help.

• sdp=file:///d:\justintv\vlc.sdp
• sdp=file:\\d:\justintv\vlc.sdp sdp=file:///d:\justintv\vlc.sdp
• sdp=d:/justintv/vlc.sdp
• sdp=d:\justintv\vlc.sdp

Hope any one of the syntax works fine for you.

Simply don’t waste time by using the code sdp=file://d:/justintv/vlc.sdp with batch file to create SDP file for RTP because the code sdp=file://d:/justintv/vlc.sdp only works for vlc 1.0.5. It is not compatible with vlc 1.1.0. Even I am not sure why this latest versions of vlc fails with that simple syntax. As it is a new version it should work with that syntax.

Try adding add –vvv in the code which you are using with batch file to create SDP file for RTP. You will get the below successful log:

I advise you to use vlc 1.2.0 if you having troubleshooting with vlc 1.1.0. The code such as

• sdp=file:///d:\justintv\vlc.sdp
• sdp=file:\\d:\justintv\vlc.sdp
• sdp=file:///d:\justintv\vlc.sdp
• sdp=d:/justintv/vlc.sdp
• sdp=d:\justintv\vlc.sdp

will work with vlc 1.2.0. You can use any one vlc 1.2.0 or vlc 1.0.5. I have personaly tried it so don’t worry your SDP file will be created. I think the vlc 1.1.0 have bugs in it which is causing results to fail.
