You can find an example here on using libvlc:

http://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_Tutorial_086c

All you have to do is replace libvlc_playlist_add by libvlc_playlist_add_extended which takes a list of options. These can include the MRL you see at the top of stream settings dialog. So if you can stream using the VLC application you should be able to do it with libvlc. you can find more details about libvlc_playlist_add_extended here:

thanks for that info.
since im new with vlc, how could i know the options available. is there any document for option like for function protorypes?

You can run VLC with the command line switch --help and it will generate a text help file. Then you can look in that file for the basic options or look at the help switches to genrate a more detailed help file.

what is "the URI to open, using VLC format " from the libvlc_playlist_add_extended ? (http://www.videolan.org/developers/vlc/ ... 034f5373c7)
in addition, should i invoke anoher function after adding to playlist? what function?

[funman]

an URI can be a file path

after adding to the playlist you might want to play it
