    <p>Using <a href="http://wiki.videolan.org/Developers_Corner" rel="nofollow noreferrer">LibVLC</a>, I'm trying to save a stream while playing it. This is the python code:</p> <pre><code>import os import sys import vlc if __name__ == '__main__': filepath = &lt;either-some-url-or-local-path&gt; movie = os.path.expanduser(filepath) if 'http://' not in filepath: if not os.access(movie, os.R_OK): print ( 'Error: %s file is not readable' % movie ) sys.exit(1) instance = vlc.Instance("--sub-source marq --sout=file/ps:example.mpg") try: media = instance.media_new(movie) except NameError: print ('NameError: % (%s vs Libvlc %s)' % (sys.exc_info()[1], vlc.__version__, vlc.libvlc_get_version())) sys.exit(1) player = instance.media_player_new() player.set_media(media) player.play() #dont exit! while(1): continue </code></pre> <p>It saves the video stream to a file <code>example.mpg</code>. As per <a href="http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Streaming_HowTo/Receive_and_Save_a_Stream#Save_a_stream_with_VLC" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> doc, the command to save a stream is this :</p> <pre><code>--sout=file/ps:example.mpg </code></pre> <p>which I've using when creating an instance of <code>vlc.Instance</code>:</p> <pre><code>instance = vlc.Instance("--sub-source marq --sout=file/ps:example.mpg") </code></pre> <p>But the problem is that it <em>only</em> saves the stream, it doesn't play the stream simultaneously.</p> <p><strong>Is there any way (in LibVLC) I can save the stream (to a local file) while paying it?</strong> </p> <p>Although, I'm looking for a solution in <code>Python 3.3.1</code> but it is fine if there is any C or C++ solution.</p> <hr> <p><sup>I've created a similar, but not duplicate, <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16506504/writing-video-file-and-simultaneously-playing-it">topic</a> yesterday.</sup></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
