>Typing multicast addresses is not very fun... that's why you need
|
|
a channel information service ! VideoLAN has implemented a channel
|
|
information service based on the SAP/SDP standard. The SAP announces
|
|
about the multicast programs are sent on the network (via the multicast
|
|
address <EM
|
|
>224.2.127.254</EM
|
|
> reserved for this purpose).
|
|
On the client side, VLCs receive these annouces and automatically add
|
|
the programs announced to their playlist.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>VLC can send the SAP announces associated with the programs
|
|
it is streaming. VLS can't do that, but an independant program, the
|
|
mini-SAP-server, can send the announces for the programs sent by
|
|
VLS.</P
