Multiple streaming with VLC

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

Hello,

VLC encoding explained on https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-vlc-as-a-live-stream-encoder-with-wowza-media-server-mpeg-ts is really wonderful.

But when i tried multiple streaming with vlm configuration it is not working. I tried to solve it by web research but i was not able to make it… so kindly help me

I created a vlm.vlm

c://program files/videolan/vlc

dir in the file with the content

# VLC media player VLM command batch
# http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
new test broadcast enabled
setup test input http://174.37.61.90/maa-www-desilive-tv
setup test output #transcode{venc=x264{keyint=60},vcodec=x264,vb=500,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:rtp{dst=127.0.0.1,port-video=10000,port-audio=10002,sdp=file:///%WMSCONFIG_HOME%/content/vlc.sdp}
new test2 broadcast enabled
setup test2 input http://174.37.61.90/maa-www-desilive-tv
setup test2 output #transcode{venc=x264{keyint=60},vcodec=x264,vb=500,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:rtp{dst=127.0.0.2,port-video=10001,port-audio=10003,sdp=file:///%WMSCONFIG_HOME%/content/vlc1.sdp}
control test play
control test2 play

and i tried to run it by

vlc --extraintf telnet --vlm-conf vlm.vlm

But vlc did start the streaming. I tried doing it in several ways

thanks in advance

I don’t think this will work with VLC. FMLE (read the EULA) will do this, which requires keframe/timecode alignment, or Digitial Rapdis, Haivision, Harmonic, Kulabyte and Inlet can.

I don’t know how to help with that. You will have to check with VLC folks.
