The VideoLAN Forums

Ok, I'm pretty new at this so please forgive me if I have no clue.

I've got a server on the internet. So I have it's IP address and port number to use.

I've got VLC and I want to stream to this server and allow others to view this stream. I'm using the Windows GUI client and I have no idea what I'm doing.

I know with Apple Broadcaster you can announce your stream to an sdp file, but I don't know how to do that with VLC.

Please ask if you don't understand what I'm talking about. I've been trying to figure this stuff out for like a month now. Thanks.

Would anyone atleast know where I could find a tutorial on how to use the Windows GUI?

1st you have to start reading the "How to" guid located here:
http://download.videolan.org/doc/stream ... wto-en.pdf

the main idea is to create an SDP file on the server that everyone who turns to it will see the broadcast.
you need to write a batch file that will "call" the "VLC" and run it creating the SDP file.

I would sudjest you start with creating the SDP Locally and if it works then create it on the server. actually I couldn't send it to the server yet but here's the command to create the SDP locally.
