Re: [vdr] How to use VDR2VDR for h264 streaming?
On Tue, 29 Apr 2008 15:23:58 +0200, YUP wrote is it possible to use vdr-stream plugin to stream from one VDR (server) to another VDR( client) h264 encoded stream in the same way as it is implemented in VDR-2-VDR with mpeg2? Some time ago the VTP part of streamdev-server has been extended to support extern remux. The streamdev-client could select externremux by issuing a CAPS EXTERN instead of the standard CAPS TSPIDS (you will need to modify the source). Of course the client VDR needs to support h264 - patches are available - and externremux has to emit an h264 TS stream. That's the theory. Your mileage may vary. Probably noone even tried the CAPS EXTERN part. Good luck ;) Frank ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] How to use VDR2VDR for h264 streaming?
Hello, We (me and my friend from the States) have the following problem. My friend wants to watch tv programs from Europe, which I stream to him. Because my upload is not too big (about 0.5 megabits) we used externremux script together with stream-device plugin for vdr to encode stream with h264 codec and after that stream it into internet. I have to say that my friend was impressed, quality was really nice. Now we want more :-) It is so inconvenient to use web-interface for switching channels, search EPG etc. And here is our question: is it possible to use vdr-stream plugin to stream from one VDR (server) to another VDR( client) h264 encoded stream in the same way as it is implemented in VDR-2-VDR with mpeg2? I mean with remote menu, epg searching, switching channels. Regards, Yarema ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Yes, we encode it on the fly: Abit I-N73HD motherboard with overclocked Intel Pentium E2160 processor. Working like a charm, about 50-60% loading of the each of processors. Here is my encoding line: (Middle quality) cat $OUT.avi /usr/bin/mencoder $IN -vf scale=512:384 -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=300:threads=auto -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=aac:abitrate=20 -o $OUT.avi $OUT.log High quality: cat $OUT.avi /usr/bin/mencoder $IN -vf scale=512:384 -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=256:subq=5:8x8dct:frameref=2:bframes=3:b_pyramid:weight_b:threads=auto -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=aac:abitrate=20 -o $OUT.avi $OUT.log Yarema We (me and my friend from the States) have the following problem.

It seems to me it's very hard job for CPU or do you stream in Internet h.264 dvb-s2 channels ?
