I have created a VLC based application (using libVLC, running on windows) that creates a mp3 stream and sends it on the LAN. I also created another client app running on the PC that is able to decode and play the strem from a client computer, so the stream is ok.
Now I would like to be able to play that stream on another architecture on the same LAN (low level, just a microprocessor and a mp3 decoder chip, so Ican't use VLC as client). I am able to receive data on this client and pipe it to the decoder chip but it's not playing. Note that I can play mp3 files on the decoder chip, just not the stream.
This got me thinking that perhaps there's more than a plain mp3 file being streamed over http. Does anyone know if there's any protocol (excluding the http carrier) used on the VLC generated stream??
Some comments and ideas about this would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks,
Rui
