NAME
mp4live - record and/or transmit video and/or audio
SYNTAX
mp4live [options]
DESCRIPTION
This program is a Linux audio/video capture utility that can capture
and encode audio and video in real-time. The results can be written to
either an mp4 file, transmitted onto the network via either unicast or
multicast, or both simultaneously! The audio is encoded with MP3 or
AAC, and the video with MPEG-4 Simple Profile which is OpenDivx
compatible.
The program has a Gtk based user interface which displays a preview of
the encoded video and controls to adjust the settings of the functions
of the program. Settings are remembered and stored in ~/.mp4live_rc.
See the program README for detailed information on hardware and
software requirements, known problems, and unknowns.
