Apple Quicktime & Microsoft streaming Support

[adanecito]

Hi All,

Last night I downloaded JVLC for Windows 32 from a another person (nit this site) and even though it was not the latest version I was pleased with the support for .mov from a file on the local drive.
I could not figure out what the uri should look like for streaming from a streaming server for apple quciktime thus did not get it to work.

The questions are:
1. Does VLC support streaming for Quicktime & Microsoft videos from Apple or Microsoft streaming servers?
2. If so what does the uri supposed to look like when using the player?
3. Is streaming supported for VLC in the windows environment?
4. Where can I get the latest windows binaries? I heard 0.9 would have them and I am will to try beta version.

Regards,
-Tony

1/ VLC can stream to anything. If you want to interact with Quicktime, MP4 is the best. For Micro$oft, I would advise asf on mms

2/ Depends on the protocol used ! http, udp, ....

3/ Yes.

4/ nightlies.videolan.org

Thanks j-b for the prompt reply.

In regards to #2 I tried http and it did not work when I was using the java bindings in a simple java program. I was using a uri that works well using java for quicktime from apple. As I mentioned if I use a file locally it works great. I am thinking there is something extra I need to do besides putting in http://www.apple.com/ect.

Is there an example somewhere I can look at?

I will post the url I am using for the test when I get home.

Hi j-b,

I went to the nightly build and did not see anything regarding java bindings. Perhaps I am wrong but is that available? I would like to use the lastest build with java bindings but did not see any jars.

The link you have on your site to the other site for JVLC looks as if no work has been done for quite some time. Which would explain the odd behavior I am seeing if no one is maintaining the code.

Hi All,

Working now on getting vlc and jvlc to compile. Down to missing audio.h needed for jvlc to build dll since I was able to get vlc to build. Noticed that in make file for jvlc the target for building l.ibjvlcdll was commented out.

Does anyone know where I can get the audio.h?

Thanks,
