Streaming sound from the sound card & visualizations

I can stream all sound from the sound card, save to a file and play the file on the TV (profiting of Home Theater).
I do this wireless with the following batch file, probably only working with French subscribers to the provider www.free.fr:

Code: Select all

@Echo Off set VLC_PATH="c:\program files\videolan\vlc\vlc.exe" set INPUT=%1 set HTTP_PATH=C:\MiniFreeplayer\ set HTTP_FILE="<html><head><meta name="panel_display" content="MiniFP"></head><body background='ts://127.0.0.1?'></body></html>" %HTTP_PATH% ECHO %HTTP_FILE% > %HTTP_PATH%\settings.html %VLC_PATH% --extraintf=http --http-host=0.0.0.0:8080 --http-src=%HTTP_PATH% --sout="#std" --sout-standard-access=udp --sout-standard-dst=212.27.38.253:1234 --fullscreen %INPUT%
This code works here with all from 0.9.8a to the latest 1.1.0 nightly build.
But it would be fine if it was possible to stream visualizations or even better: Capture Device = Desktop.
But to stream from the sound card I need to chose Capture Device = DirectShow - and with this choice "Desktop" is not available.
Is there a way to do what I want?

Slave-input should make this possible, but AFAIK it doesn't work yet.
