>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. VLC's stream output
can send SAP announces when streaming (on 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
