Hello,

I'm getting the following error whenever i try to use streamdev-server streamtype EXT
Is it because mencoder isn't installed?
Is there mencoder or any alternative for MLD 5.4 testing?

Regards.

I installed mencoder but can't get rid of that error message 
So what's wrong?

[clausmuus]

Witch MLD version do you using? The MLD-5.4 do not provide the mencoder in the streamdev extern setup.

[gr4vity]

I use MLD special edition 
I know MLD 5.4 streamdev extern setup contains
mpv
vlc
omxtx i dunno what is that ...maybe it's for Raspberry Pi?
I just installed mencoder and edited the extern setup file.
So what is meant by Broken pipe?
Broken package?
You tried streamdev EXT and it worked for you?

[clausmuus]

yes it works with mpv and vlc.
Broken pipe means, that the video stream do not contain data. So your mencoder do not provide the needed video data.
If you really want to use the mencoder, you should have a look at a older version of the remux script. Two years it contains a mencoder setup.

Thanks for replying Claus,
I already tried mpv and vlc but i'm getting the same error message.

[clausmuus]

You are right. Actual I have the same issue. At my last test in August it works fine. So I do not know the reason for the issue.

[clausmuus]

I have fixed the mpv extern remux. I do not test the vlc extern remux today.

[clausmuus]

Now I test the vlc extern remux. It works also fine, without any changes.

[gr4vity]

Awesome.
I confirm that it works.
vielen Dank Claus

I noticed that mpv sometimes gives broken pipe error so in order to fix that i had to use vlc then go back to mpv.
However, i followed your advice about using mencoder scripts so i copied them from MLD 5.3
Now mencoder works great so i will stick with it.
Thank you 

By the way, if you have vlc installed then you can install pcmanfm-qt too because it depends on qt5.
