Start libVLC without data URL

[Njutik]

Hello!

For my study project I need to write a c-program, which creates a UDP Socket, binds it to a special address, let it join a multicast group, creates a new VLC-Player Instance and let it wait for incoming video data from a server. I implemented this source code in my program: http://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_Tutorial and tried to run it, but it didn´t work. My problem is that I don´t give any url as a parameter to the

Code: Select all

libvlc_media_new

function. I just want to create a new vlc-instance and let it wait for data from the server. Just as the usual VLC-Player. You start it and it is there without any given data url.

Can anybody help me?

Best wishes
