Stream input to stream output using 'avserver' - streaming

Question

I'm trying to use the avserver package to re-stream my IP camera's stream in order to be able to record this stream and access it remotelly without having to stream it twice from the camera, to avoid overloading the wireless network.
Following the link https://libav.org/avserver.html, I came up with the following command:
avserver -f /etc/avserver.conf & avconv -i http://user:password#192.168.1.121/videostream.asf http://localhost:80/feed1.ffm
This gives me the following output
avserver version 0.8.3-6:0.8.3-6ubuntu2, Copyright (c) 2000-2012 the Libav developers

When I try to open this stream via VLC media player, using
http://192.168.1.15/test.asf
I get the following additional output
Mon Jan 13 20:17:39 2014 192.168.1.6 - - [GET] "/test.asf HTTP/1.1" 200 115s dup=12210 drop=0

Mon Jan 13 20:17:39 2014 Codec for stream 1 does not use global headers but container format requires global headers
And I get nothing on VLC media player. I'm not quite sure what is going on or how to fix it, so any enlightning on this would be very welcome.

Answer 1

please try using another format like mp3
just
sudo vim /etc/avserver.conf
comment out the section with
#<stream test.asf>
#</Stream>
uncomment the mp3 section and try using that.
<stream test.mp3></Stream>
this would work if you are working with a stream that is only audio only.
for a video
just use the uncommented section for
<Stream test1.mgp><Stream>
