Sync two sites

[jimchris]

Greetings fellow Travelers,

Looking to use VLC to stream an AVI to two locations, mine and one remote site.

Streaming through a VPN to that remote site is an issue because my uplink rate, set by the provider is a couple of megabits/Second.

So if a copy of the AVI was stored at the remote then through the VPN playbacks could the synchronized?

So lua can read the current time code or frame number of the two and adjust the playback rate of one or just pause the faster for the difference in position?

Crazy? Doable? A ready done? Better way?

I have a similar issue.
What I want is a LUA-Script, that starts recording a certain RTP-timestamp, to syncronize two recordings.

I searched the forums, but did not findt the answer to this question:

How can I acess the RTP-Timestamp-Information via LUA?

Have you tried: https://github.com/jwatzman/vlc-sync

There is a server and a client component. The client VLC will sync with the server.

I have just finished updating this to work with most operating systems. Yet to be tested. Waiting for the lead author to accept my pull request.
