Instead of usng VLC, could you try running "openRTSP" <http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/> with the "-s 15" option. Let us know if that generates a correct output Transport Stream file (i.e., properly starting at the 15s mark). > The VLC implementation of the >start-time option results in a PLAY request being sent with "Range: >npt=0.000-" followed almost immediately by a second PLAY request with >"Range: npt=<new-time>-". This seems like a bug in VLC. What version of VLC are you using? (Although we do not support VLC on this mailing list, I will forward this information to the VLC developers.) -- Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/ _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
