VLC streaming Multicast
Posted: 06 Apr 2006 03:51
Sorry for my bad knowlodge, I would like to know what the multicast IP address means. I have been trying to stream a video between a server and a client without success.
I have the following environment:
Client:
Windows 2003 SP1
Ip: 10.90.90.1
Server:
Windows 2003 SP1
Ip: 10.90.90.1
Im trying to create a stream using VLC on Client and selecting the UDP in these steps:
On Server:
1: I use the wizard and select "Stream to Network".
2: I select the video to stream
3: I selected the UDP Multicast and typed "224.0.0.10"
4: I select all default option and set the TTL to 1
Now I can verified that the progression of video is going however the video is not shown.
On Client
I select "Open Network Stream" and typed the "224.0.0.10" ip.
On the client the vido was not shown.
Anyone know what Im doing wrong or if I need to enable something in the switch between the client and the server? The multicast IP that Im insert is not from any computer. Is that right?
