Bug#900027: vlc: VLC doesn't parse arguments properly

2018-05-27 Thread Cyr Bol 
It turned out I was adding an extraneous space after the backslash at line
4:

 /usr/bin/cvlc -vvv \
 screen:// :screen-fps=30 \
--canvas-width=1280 --canvas-height=720 \
--sout-transcode-vcodec=h264 \
 --sout-x264-profile=high --sout-x264-level=3.1 \
 --sout-x264-vbv-maxrate=5000 --sout-x264-vbv-bufsize=8000
--sout-x264-vbv-init=0.2 \
 --input-slave=pulse://alsa_output.pci-_00_03.0.hdmi-surround.monitor
--sout-transcode-acodec=aac \
...

That was a little bit stupid, sorry.

Please close the bug.

Bug#900027: vlc: VLC doesn't parse arguments properly

2018-05-25 Thread Cyr Bol 
well, that's strange...

That's true that when I run these commands on the command line, and go back
to the histroy afterwards, I can see it translated to something like:

 screen:// :screen-fps=30 --canvas-width=1280
--canvas-height=720 --sout-transcode-vcodec=h264
 --sout-x264-profile=high --sout-x264-level=3.1
 --sout-x264-vbv-maxrate=5000 --sout-x264-vbv-bufsize=8000
--sout-x264-vbv-init=0.2  --input-slave=pulse://alsa_
output.pci-_00_03.0.hdmi-surround.monitor --sout-transcode-acodec=aac \

So, I can see it interpreted by the shell indeed

Could it be that VLC has issues with all the spaces generate by the shell
between the arguments?

I will test that further when I'll have access to my machine.

Bug#900027: vlc: VLC doesn't parse arguments properly

2018-05-24 Thread Cyrille 
Package: src:vlc
Version: 3.0.2-1+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

VLC doesn't parse arguments properly.

How to reproduce?

Create a shell script with the following content:

#!/bin/sh

# start VLC
/usr/bin/cvlc -vvv \
screen:// :screen-fps=30 \
--canvas-width=1280 --canvas-height=720 --sout-transcode-vcodec=h264 \
--sout-x264-profile=high --sout-x264-level=3.1 \
--sout-x264-vbv-maxrate=5000 --sout-x264-vbv-bufsize=8000 
--sout-x264-vbv-init=0.2 \
--input-slave=pulse://alsa_output.pci-_00_03.0.hdmi-surround.monitor 
--sout-transcode-acodec=aac \
--sout-transcode-ab=192 --sout-transcode-channels=2 
--sout-transcode-samplerate=48000 \
--sout 
'#transcode{venc=x264{preset=ultrafast}}:rtp{sdp=rtsp://:9090/kodi.sdp}' 2>&1 

launch it. You can now connect to your computer at the follwing URI and watch 
your screen streamed in RTP.

Now, modify this script as follow:

#!/bin/sh

# start VLC
/usr/bin/cvlc -vvv \
screen:// :screen-fps=30 \
--canvas-width=1280 --canvas-height=720 \
--sout-transcode-vcodec=h264 \
--sout-x264-profile=high --sout-x264-level=3.1 \
--sout-x264-vbv-maxrate=5000 --sout-x264-vbv-bufsize=8000 
--sout-x264-vbv-init=0.2 \
--input-slave=pulse://alsa_output.pci-_00_03.0.hdmi-surround.monitor 
--sout-transcode-acodec=aac \
--sout-transcode-ab=192 --sout-transcode-channels=2 
--sout-transcode-samplerate=48000 \
--sout 
'#transcode{venc=x264{preset=ultrafast}}:rtp{sdp=rtsp://:9090/kodi.sdp}' 2>&1

launch it, and watch VLC freak out...

100% reproductible here.

Best regards,

Cyrille
