All things related to multicast

[Pujan Srivastava <>]

DVTS software woks on raw format, no standard compression algorithm thats why reception of DVTS at VLC fails.
Maybe some tricks like mkfifo in combination with pipe to VLC at DVRecv software module can work ?

Maybe VideoLAN?

VLC IS Videolan David , but i was goggling seems like nobody did ;)

Hi,
Has anyone attempted or found a way to transcode a DVTS stream directly off of receiving it via multicast? My goal is to be able to transcode DVTS streams to different formats and resend them as Access Grid-based or web-based streams. So far, it looks like the only way to do it would be to modify xdvshow or one of the other DVTS apps to hook together with ffmpeg for transcoding & ffserver for streaming, since as far as I can tell, apps like ffmpeg or VLC can't receive DVTS by themselves. Before I go spending a bunch of time on that I want to make sure this hasn't already been done some other way.
Thanks,
-
