Steps
1. Open VLC player, Ctrl+S to open to streaming menu.
2. Add a media which is to be streamed.
3. Click stream, and hit on the next button.
4. In the streaming methods select UDP (legacy).
5. In the profile transcoding options, change to Video - DIV3 + MP3 (ASF) and click add.
6. In the address bar type any of the multicasting Ip ranging from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.
7. Click next and check the box entitled "Stream all elementary streams".
8. And start streaming.
9. Open VLC player on another PC connected through LAN, Ctrl+N to open network stream.
10. Enter the network URL for UDP , add the multicasting Ip used in the streaming VLC player and the base port of rtp which is 1234. (eg. udp://@224.1.1.1:5004)

NOTE: In udp(legacy) multicasting stream, the quality of the video will be shitty as you can see but the quality of the audio will be good

I did not add any sound/music to this video because i am too lazy :)

video is taken using camstudio

  • just upgraded vlc and thought i'd click on the media tab (which I'd never done before.

    that's how good vlc is.)

    "Advanced open file" that sounds important. lets check that out.

    Then i see A network protocol rtp. what the!!!!

    thanks AAron for teaching me what live streaming is and how to use it in 1:40.

    ps you could do like a live video rental.

  • @mibukyo24

    I put a ":" after the @ that doesn't work either

  • Handy video. Thanks. My mistake was not putting @ in front of the address. ^^
