Swapping Connection During IPTV Streaming

Postby nero » 02 May 2008 09:41

Hi Guys,

Just wondering whether i can possibly swap my connection from (Lets Say Ethernet Connection to WLAN perhaps?) seamlessly at the same time im streaming an IPTV session?

Anyhow, my main question is to know which part of the coding that actually binds the socket prior to the streaming process? Atleast i can try figuring it out from there. Can anyone enlighten me on it?


Thank you.

The transport-level socket code is in src/network/. The application-layer network code depends on the protocol you use.

VLC does not support seamless application-layer handovers at the moment. However, you can still do seamless handover using Mobile IP in principles.

Oh, tq. If such, where is location of the application-layer network codes? Btw, i was thinking of multicast streaming.


and sorry for the delay in reply.

tq, Nero
