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 ;)

[vdr] How to use VDR2VDR for h264 streaming?

2008-04-29 Thread YUP
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

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

 do you encode mpeg2 satellite channels to h.264 on the fly ? It seems to me 
 it's very hard job for CPU
 or do you stream in Internet h.264 dvb-s2 channels ?
