1394 mpeg2ts (HDV, 720p or 1080i) realtime encoding and streamin in H264 over IP ethe

[iptv]

Hi...

I would like to know if anyone has done this:

Stream in realtime (using only: HDV Camera; PC; firewier/ieee1394 and Ethernet/IP)

MPEG2-TS ( from HDV: 720p or 1080i) as it comes out of the camera (either Sony or JVC HDV) on ieee1394 --->

---> PC ieee1394 ---> (encode into mper4/h264) ---> stream out of the Ethernet/IP NIC (using Unicast or Multicast)

Any procedures/ideas/suggestions and/or comments are appreciated.

Try a different forum...

Yeah this definitely doesn't belong in the AviSynth usage forum :)

Maybe in Software Players? Hopefully a nice admin will move the thread for you :)

I'm guessing this COULD be done with VLC if you could figure out some way to get the M2T through FireWire into VLC in real-time and use libavcodec to real-time encode MPEG-4 and stream (with a bit of delay)

Ok... I shall try that... I'll plug-in the camera into the firewire port and see if VLC picks it up as one of the DirectShow "input" devices....

Initially I thought that I would have to use AViSYNTH to "ingest" the mpeg2-ts (streamed from/over ieee1394) and then somehow frame-serve it to VLC (or some other encoder).....

Will update soon. Thanks

Nah, introducing AviSynth on the fly would probably be impossible. For real-time stuff straight VLC should work, but I kind of doubt it supports taking real-time M2T through 1394. I'm sure it would be pretty simple to impliment, not much more complicated than taking DV through 1394.
