Arguments are split on spaces. For example, it's ['-I', 'dummy'], not
['-I dummy']. You can put the command in a string and split() it.
Hopefully the following will work once you set the values you're using
for ip/port.
import subprocess
ip = "192.168.0.2"
port = "1234"
out_file = "testing.avi"
out_ip = "127.0.0.1"
out_port = "11300"
dst_file = '"transcode{vb=400}:std{access=file,mux=avi,dst=%s}"' % out_file
dst_http = '"std{access=http,mux=mpjpeg,dst=%s:%s}"' % (out_ip, out_port)
sout = "'#duplicate{dst=%s,dst=%s}'" % (dst_file, dst_http)
cmd = "vlc http://%s:%s -I dummy --sout %s" % (ip, port, sout)
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd.split())
To answer your initial question, you could call a Python script (or a
Bash script if you prefer) instead of vlc. In Python, just print out
the list sys.argv.
cmd = "python argtest.py http://%s:%s -I dummy --sout %s" % (ip, port, sout)
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd.split())
# argtest.py
import sys
print "\nArgs:"
for arg in sys.argv:
print arg
