streaming of new video format

Postby gaituc » 27 Aug 2004 00:48

Hi, I have to make VLC able to receive, in streaming, data coming from a streaming server I have already developed. This server sends data taken from files in a new video format (this format is similar to AVI format but it contains only video stream, not audio, and it has a more simple structure).
Which are the things I have to do to make VLC able to display the data sent in streaming from my server?

you need to implement a demux module for your file format. That's all.

What are your reasons for creating a new file format? I ask because those how have written demux modules do _not_ want the world to see any more file formats, so your reasons should be very good if you want to get any further help.

Well, I'm working on an adaptive video streaming project for my thesis at University of Milan. During this thesis it has appeared necessary to develop a video format simpler than the formats already existing. After having built the server I chose VideoLAN for the client-side of my project.
