stream for vlc

Open coolaj86 opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

Is there a way for me to choose the playlist to stream to watch on-the-fly (i.e. with vlc)?

The equivalent of this:

makemkvcon --upnp=1 --cache=128 --minlength=180 stream disc:0 &
vlc http://localhost:51000/stream/title0.ts

except I don't know how from the commandline to choose which playlist to stream from (and the menlength auto detection often doesn't work).

Disclaimer - I haven't used makemkvcon for streaming before. You should, however, be able to select the track that you would like to stream by appending it after the disc like so (selects first playlist):

makemkvcon --upnp=1 --cache=128 --minlength=180 stream disc:0 1 &...

Is this a feature that you would like to see integrated into node-makemkv?

I'll try it out next time I get a blu-ray from redbox. That was so simple, but I couldn't find it. I would like to see it integrated. When I have the time to play with it I'll see if I can figure out how to put it in myself.

It shouldn't be too difficult to add. Let me know if the command works and we'll continue forward with this.

Hey @coolaj86 - did this command end up working? I'm about to begin the 1.0 release branch, this would be an interesting feature to include.
