I'm currently trying to set up a personal video recorder in form of a headless server using mencoder and freevo. What I would like to do is watching the movie while mencoder is realtime encoding it to x264/vorbis in a Matroska container. I already tried it using sshfs. Unfortunately, the file is only read up to the point where it ended when playing it started. I don't know if NFS would behave better. Well, what I thought about was doing it like this: #!/bin/bash mencoder [...] -o - | tee video.mkv | stream-app So far it should work and vlc would be the natural choice for the streaming app. However, vlc seems unable to read from a pipe so I need something else. Can anyone give me a tip? maybe I missed an option in vlc or can someone propose an app that can be used instead? By the way: It's a 100MBit ethernet network without any switches or hubs. The machines are right next to each other. I hope it will be a 400 or even 500MBit net soon, but that's another topic ... =20 --=-oUfSyaKZ2VRTsbu8SFsR Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBHjlsfqs4uOUlOuU8RAtBoAJ0QNzmAHiZ2bx90AhsaMFz+y+BZgwCfa/7r 35HjIBaQoxWEcRG/JI3+rjk= =VWng -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-oUfSyaKZ2VRTsbu8SFsR-- -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
