VLC Streaming - how to support time seek in player?


I have found standart command line for HTTP streaming with VLC:

vlc -vvv 1.mov --sout "#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=800,ab=128}:standard{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=127.0.0.1:8181}"

But this command line's options allow only simple streaming, without time seek in clients player. Is it possible to stream video with time seek in player?


Solution

  • Seek commands can be issued via the putty session e.g.

    so connect to it first e.g.

    add videopath\video.ts
    

    then

    seek 85%
