[streaming] Re: Streaming and mplayer... ?

[Pierre ZUREK]

Hi !

Thanks for your answers, I finally found a way to play the files
continuously, by using the "raw" muxer and the --sout-keep option :
on the server, I launch :
vlc -I ncurses -vvv --sout-keep --sout '#std{access=http,mux=raw}' file1.mp3
file2.mp3

on the client, I launch :
mplayer http://server_ip_address:8080

It works fine. I will try some other muxers to see if they also work.
