well its not all a bad waste of time, while playing around with VLC to show the readers how they might multicast stream (security/web)cam content, i think i found a Bug in the wizard that needs reporting....

if you put in say the latest click! url
mms://wm-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms/news/media_acl/mps/fix/news/science_nature/video/185000/bb/185720_16x9_bb.wmv

as your base video content (yes, it doesnt matter were you get the originating video from to stream over your LAN, and back out to the web if you like over that tunnel above etc) instead of a local USB webcam in my case, you can see the video ,but it doesnt include the audio in the Multicasted stream, but its there in the original streaming VLC.

if anyones interested, you dont use the wizard,do it all manually,you have to re-encode/transcode on the fly the audio from the opened network stream, advanced/settings ....

you will figure it out, its simple.

but im still getting slightly out of sync audio from bbc web streamed content even now, odd...

Did not know you could do so much with VLC .Followed the instuctions as directed and am starting to find my way around.:)

Re: CCTV thru Router
 

well there you go...

its got an internal webserver option as well, so you can remotely html control its video streaming from that too, using any browser on the LAN /WAN/WEB you like, if you can see the page you can control it.

IT REALLY NEEDS a lot of work though, and some good web page script author to get it into shape, but it exists,.

see the settings/add interfaces/web interface,
and settings/preferences /interfaces/main interfaces/http click advanced.

someone should really try and fix that html page up or write a stand alone rebol GUI script to talk its API.... how about you!

for instance, if you run that VLC on a LAN PC with an ip address of 192.168.0.1
and entered this into that VLC's prefs../ host address 192.168.0.1:8080

then on any any LAN PC browser that you entered http://192.168.0.1:8080 that VLC webserver page will come up (assuming you added a web interface as above) its got an ugly layout and feel to it, but it works....

did it help you?, and remember this is good for anything VLC can play, it can multicast stream, its not just security webcams, DVDs,Audio, web Video and radio, anything.... probably even datastreams too, if you can make or use some 3rd party app at the other end to collect and use whatever its MC streaming...
