[gst-devel] MP4 file streaming over RTP

[Farah Akhtar]

Hi,

I am trying to stream an mp4 file (h264 encoded, no audio) over RTP. When I use the pipeline to play the streamed file at the receiver using xvimagesink, it plays fine. However, when I try to save the same stream to an .mp4 file, an error for lack of library support is given. The pipelines and output are given here:

I got a somewhat similar problem in a list here:
http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/Saving-a-live-stream-tc972117.html#a972117

and applied the same solution using capsfilters as suggested here. Then, the pipeline doesnt end and I dont get any errors but the output file is always 0 bytes (no data) and I have to Ctrl+C to end the pipeline.

Please help! 
Thanks.
