Storing RTSP to a file location

Question

I am able to stream an rtsp on windows 7 64 bit machine through C# Winform application. This is the library i used - VLCDotNet and here is the code sample to play the RTSP stream:

LocationMedia media = new LocationMedia(@"rtsp://192.168.137.73:554/live.sdp");
vlcControl1.Media = media;
vlcControl1.Play();

I would like to store the streams to a file in my PC on a button click and stop the same with another button. How do i achieve this?

Answer 1

Here is the code:

Vlc.DotNet.Core.Medias.MediaBase media1
= new Vlc.DotNet.Core.Medias.PathMedia("rtsp://192.168.137.73:554/live.sdp");

media.AddOption(":sout=#transcode{vcodec=theo,vb=800,
scale=1,acodec=flac,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100}:std{access=file,mux=ogg,
dst=D:\\123.mp4}");

VlcControl control = new VlcControl();
control.Media = media;
control.Play();

VlcContext.StartupOptions.IgnoreConfig = true;
VlcContext.StartupOptions.LogOptions.LogInFile = true;
VlcContext.StartupOptions.LogOptions.ShowLoggerConsole = true;
VlcContext.StartupOptions.LogOptions.Verbosity = VlcLogVerbosities.Debug;

// Disable showing the movie file name as an overlay
// VlcContext.StartupOptions.AddOption("--no-video-title-show");                
// VlcContext.StartupOptions.AddOption("--no-audio");
VlcContext.StartupOptions.AddOption("--rtsp-tcp"); //this line was important to make this work
