Transcoding rtmp stream

[Eugene]

Hi,

I've got a rtmp internet TV stream. Transcoding doesn't work with the Internet-television profile. I tried then with the Movies-TsMuxer profile and it works. However the aspect ratio isn't correct. But I can live with that.

Is it correct to use the Movies-TsMuxer transcoding profile for rtmp streams?

Or is there a dedicated transcoding profile for rtmp streams which I didn't find? I saw that there is the rtmpdump.exe tool in the distribution pack but I didn't find it in the transcoder list.

Thank you for any confirmation or hint.

Rtmpdump used to support podcasts. FFMpeg also has basic support rtmp, perhaps so it works "Movies-TsMuxer".
You can use the folder of podcasts for rtmp-sources.
1. Folder Podcasts - right click - Add podcast.
2. Title: Rtmp Streams
3. List of resources read mode: Special (script)
4. Script for the links to the resource - On - Edit Script
Language: Pascal script
Expression:

Code: Select all

begin 
  MediaResourceLink := '-r "' + mpFilePath + '"'  // parameters rtmpdump.exe
end.

5. Folder "Rtmp Streams" - List [Movies] - right click - "Add link" - Path: rtmp://...

Yes, that way I can read the stream properties and the aspect ratio is correct. The stream starts much faster as well!
However, it still transcodes the video track from h.264 to mpeg2 which in fact wouldn't be necessary as I've got a PS3 - which can handle h.264 far as I know.

Folder "Rtmp Streams" - right click - Edit title - Transcoding profile - "Movies - TsMuxer"

I noticed that when watching rtmp://213.21.0.16/ntv/ntv.sdp in postcast using TsMuxer profile I get a huge audio delay of about nearly one second. There's no audio dealy when watchinh the iptv stream diecty on the pc.

Is there anything I to get rid of that delay?

Yes, when using the transcoding profile "Movies (primary)" sound is better synchronized. For transcoding profile "Movies - TsMuxer" can set the audio delay, but it seems every time a different.
