For some reasons, - first we adapted dvbstrean to our needs (make the 800 people our our network have the tv in their room) so we removed some features (telnet interfacs, ts to ps) - secondly the usage is different, dvbstream reads option by the command line wheras our program need more information (name of the channels, repartition of the pid s by multicast IPs) so we use only configuration files. Third The protocol is no longer rtp, to few programs where able to read it in particular VLC wich is the only one free (as in freedom) multimedia player for windows we've found. When i've written a mail to dave he had no time to look at dvbstream. Globally it's a decision from us not from Dave. > > Johannes > -- Brice Join us now and share the software; You'll be free, hackers, you'll be free. [Richard STALLMAN, free software song]
