Hiyah all
I am trying to make a low bandwidth viewer to connect to my video server. My video server exports multiple streams in mpeg/asf format. Id like to be able to watch these streams via the vb.net app i ahev written. I can watch multiple streams fine using jpeg streaming but when using mpeg streaming i need a way to interpret the stream. I have tried using multiple mediaplayer controls but they seem to randomly stall and then get out of sync. So ideally i need another means to watch a http asf/mpeg stream other than ms media player. I have searched for controls but all the api based contols i can find are designed for playing local files not streams. Does anyone have any suggestions
Thanks in advance
James

James... so your have a resource. Can you come up with some questions or are you feeling a little swamped

James,
You're doing fine as far as I'm concerned.
There seems to be a missing post here, because there was a post by someone who really knew this area.
We'll keep bumping this, but if you find another forum, that might be the place to go.

Hi the video server is a linux gnu project called zoneminder and is a superb app. I have written app as a font end for it but would like to extend it to mpeg viewing. It basically uses ffmpeg as a streamer and can stream in vitually any format, but i feel mpeg is the one fow low bandwidth high framerate streaming. Would i be better of in a diffrent place then

No bugz...
I think it's a excellent question for this forum although you're right there are other foums that specialize in it.
I know I'd learn something were it to be discussed here.

HI Renee, I dont understand by resource, do you mean i should try another forum, or that i have a resource as in the streaming app and what do i want to do with it. If its the first i will head over there, if its the latter, im looking for a way to pplay an mpeg movie or asf whatever in a non media player control. I have issues with media player when using more than 1 keeping the streams in sync. So i assuming if i dont use media player all will be ok ! SO ideally id like to stream the mpeg and play it in a picrurebox, etc etc. I think i need something called directshow but it seems its not that easy to use form vb.net
Re linux. I am making a vb.net app that connects o a linux server. And i usually use CentOS or fedora. Red hat i eleive is charged for due to the way its supported but i have never used rhel
