Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Attempting to convert a stream to an MP3 file
$ vlc
VLC media player 2.1.2 Rincewind (revision 2.1.2-0-ga4c4876)
[0x7130b8] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to
use vlc without interface.
[0x7fbc7c002218] access_output_file access out error: cannot create : No such
file or directory
[0x7fbc7c001358] stream_out_standard stream out error: no suitable sout access
module for `file{no-overwrite}/ts://(null)'
[0x7fbc7c000cc8] main stream output error: stream chain failed for
`transcode{vcodec=none,acodec=mp3,ab=320,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:std{access=file{no-overwrite},mux=ts,dst=''}'
[0x7fbc840009b8] main input error: cannot start stream output instance, aborting
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
The errors above happened when I did not specify an output file name.
When I did specify an output file name I received the error:
access_output_file access out error: cannot create
/home/amarsh04/2014-01-15-test-again.ts: File exists
[0x7f2844c25a18] access_mms access: selecting stream[0x1] audio (63 Kib/s)
[0x7f2844c25a18] access_mms access: connection successful
vlc claimed about a file with extension .ts already existed, even though
I had specified a unique filename ending in mp3 for an MP3 audio file, as
the stream was audio only. When I specified overwrite, vlc wrote a file
with extension .ts.

* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
vlc to give an error message if no output file was mentioned, and to
give the option to save only audio in an audio format.
