Re: Expert help needed to get live-tv rtmp streams to playback in VLC

I've seen freezing and lagging in various VLC versions even in cases in which other player renders a continuous live stream, therefore I can only assume that they still have problems with the development of stream caching routine. VLC, in its intention to be a universal media player, has undergone certain optimizations for the caching of live packets, but these are, of course, not the same (there's flv streaming, mp4 streaming, mp3 streaming, mpeg streaming, sequential ts streaming like on HLS servers, and so on). My guess is that the intention of VLC developers to establish a caching policy suitable for all streams has failed, for no matter how much you play with its cache settings, you won't reach the desired effect.
