[vlc-devel] Re: Unicast Streaming using VLC Player : How to specify local IP/Port

[newbie here]

Also the command I used to install VLC was

 rpm -U *.rpm --nodeps.

as mentioned in the documentation :
http://www.videolan.org/doc/play-howto/en/ch02.html

But I couldn't get it installed. Could it be because I am using the wrong
file. Should I be using a different version VLC to install on Redhat.

Thanks,
Kripa
