Good day to all... I have some "little" problems with ffserver and ffmpeg...

What I need to do is to broadcast a live video. So I got the cam... used vlc and used send stream option. I sent it to 192.168.1.9:64555, which is a virtual machine on the same computer, running centos.

On the virtual machine I run the command ffmpeg -i 192.168.1.9:64555 output.mpg.

The response is "unable to find file whatever".

Can any1 tell me what I did wrong?

Thank you and have a great day.

Is there any way to stream multicast without the NSC-file or can I create the NSC-file on another way? Thanks for any idea ;) >>> More

Facts: It is surprising and uncharacteristic that a wireless game streaming solution is the *first to hit the market when a 1000mbps+ Ethernet connection would accomplish the same feat with roughly 6x the available bandwidth. 150-300mbps WiFi is in no way superior to a 1000mbps+ LAN connection aside… >>> More
