How to show a HTTP stream from VLC Player in Wireshark?
Hello community,
I just set up a HTTP stream of a video between my Server and Client system using the VLC media player (using the command line). Both the systems run Ubuntu 20.04
vlc -vvv <path to video file> --sout '#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=800,acodec=mpga,ab=128,channels=2,samplerate=44100,scodec=none}standard:{access=http,mus=ts,dst=:8080/}'
Now I try to visualize the packets in Wireshark. Unfortunately, I can most only see TCP packets being sent between Server and Client but I cannot see any upper communication Layer (like HTTP). However, HTTP is activated to be shown in Wireshark (under Analyse -> Activate Protocols)
In the attached screenshot I only see a single HTTP frame and afterwards only TCP.
Does anyone have a solution for that? Or is that behaviour expected?
Best regards! Top
