The VideoLAN Forums

Hello to everybody, I am new here!

My situation is the following:
I have 2 pc, called A and B, in the same LAN. I want to capture webcam and mic streams from pc A and transmit them (using an rtp session) to pc B, where I have VLC installed. In the meanwhile I want to generate, with the stream received, a stream over the internet to clients connected (about 30 clients).
NOTE: I can know IP addressess of my clients, before I start streaming to them video/audio capture.

What kind of streaming mode is better??
Multicast or Unicast??

I read Multicast is possible just if my ISP is connected to the MBONE.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

You definitively won't be able to do multicast. So unicast it the way to go. I advise that you use mmsh as the access output because it's currently the only streaming method in VLC which will works for clients behind a NAT. (http will also work, but that's almost the same ...)
