I'm trying to make work a software called VNCast. It allows to multicast a VNC stream..
http://wiki.vislab.usyd.edu.au/moinwiki/VNCast
Cool on the paper, but tought in reality...
The software use the liveMedia lib from live555.com.
From server side everything seems to work fine.
On client side i receive udp packets, but VLC is not able to play the stream.
It's a MJPEG stream but VLC seems not to see it.
I'm asking myself some questions :
- Is it possible to force the decoder module used by VLC to play the stream ?
- Is liveMedia from live555 works with VLC ?
- Can you give me some help
?Thanks, JD.
