Stream screen://

Post by Rossonero »

Hi. I'm trying to stream my desktop to my Sony bravia KDL-52W5500. To capture the screen I use VLC.
This is the command line I start with

Code: Select all

vlc screen:// :screen-fps=30 :screen-caching=100 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=2048,scale=1,acodec=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=127.0.0.1:1234}}
The capturing works great and I can watch the stream localy and over the network in both VLC and WMP.
However I can't get the TV to play the stream with WMS. I've played around with various transcoder profiles but no luck so far.

Any help is appreciated.

You can change the settings on the access=file (an example profile "Internet-Television") or use the profile transcoding "Internet-Television" - to add a link to the section Internet-television

Thanks for a fast answer.
I already have a link under Internet-Television and I can see the link on my TV, but can't play it.
I'm not sure what you mean, where is this setting "access=file" and what soud I cange it to? (http://127.0.0.1:1234)??

the profile transcoding "Internet-Television" produces errors when running a Test Transcoding.

Code: Select all
