hi there,
i am currently trying to capture the stream from the Linux Wochen Linz
with melt and pipe it out through our Decklink sdi card..

unfortunatly melt is not very good at capturing network streams,
whenever there is a lag on the network it just outputs white and
doesn't  try to reconnect.
if it connects it works pretty well as long as the stream is not interrupted..

what i've tried now is start a virtual xserver with xvfb
Xvfb :1 -screen 0 640x480x24 -fbdir /var/tmp/

start vlc within the virtual screen
DISPLAY=:1.0 vlc   --no-x11-shm --vout x11 --aout jack --volume 1024
--fullscreen -R  http://87.106.167.44:443/stream.ogg

and then grab the virtual screen with melt and output it to the decklink card:
/usr/bin/melt -profile dv_pal   x11grab::1.0+0,0?width:640\&height:480
 -consumer decklink:


this works perfect for the video, vlc's .R option makes sure the
player reconnects when it got disconnected.

the only problem i have now is that i can't find a way to get the
audio working in melt.
i've tried every possible combination, the alsa and the jack options,
but it seems that melt doesn't allow for jack audio input. routing the
audio output works fine.
i even tried to connect the headphone and the line in jack with a
cable. audacity can record the audio stream but melt seems not to care
about the alsa:default, alsa:hw:0,0,... options-

has anyone on the list a suggestion how to make that work

thanks a lot
bye
stefan
