Editing streamed video (1 Viewer)

[can2002]

Hi all,

A friend put me onto the forum as a good source.

I am using a Reelbox linux-based DVB-S receiver that provides an http mpeg-2 PS streaming service. I can record this stream directly to disk on my PC using firefox, wget, etc.

The requirement I have is to be able to dump subsections of the stream out to file while the programme is still feeding (e.g. crop a five minute section). While I can open the captured mpeg2 file with a utility such as VideoReDo Plus, it won't let me create the cropped file while the file is still open...

I have a basic workaround of copying the captured file and carrying out the edit using the copy; however this becomes an issue as the file grows bigger and bigger.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Regards,
Chris

I would suggest you actually looking at the forum under http://www.videohelp.com or look at the linux section in the forum http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/forumdisplay.php?f=76

Good luck in finding a solution to your problem.
