AirPlay support to Mac/PC VLC

Postby zzuser » 15 Dec 2010 13:29

A hack was recently introduced to support AirPlay from an iOS device to a Mac [1]. What would be *really* great would be for VLC on a Mac/PC to support AirPlay, so that you could stream your videos from the PC to the AppleTV. AirPlay seems to be a Bonjour service, which appears to be available on Mac, PC and Linux. Any devs interested in adding AirPlay to VLC?

If someone could write plugin for Totem (gnu/linux) in python without other dependencies than totem itself and avahi, why wouldn't it be possible for VLC on any platform;)
