After some more googling, I found out about udpsrc. However, I can't figure out how to use it in C code. I've gone through the tutorials, but have not found any examples showing how to play a video streaming via VLC from a UDP port. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. _______________________________________________ gstreamer-devel mailing list <a href="mailto:gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">gstreamer-devel@lists.freedesktop.org</a> <a href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel" target="_blank">http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/gstreamer-devel</a> </blockquote></div> </div>
