Problem

I am using ffmpeg to stream video: On another machine, I am using VLC to play the output stream. The problem I have is that VLC is playing the stream in a rate of 48 fps (instead of 24 fps). I tried adding the option but it seems to have no effect on the output. How can I control ffmpeg output rate?

Error Output

ffmpeg -i $file -f mpegts udp://hostname:port

Low Risk

I found the answer for this: simply add the flag before the input. From the ffmpeg documentation: Read input at native frame rate. Mainly used to simulate a grab device.
