XMMS

Rav0: tag for cleanup

When streaming Ogg/vorbis to xmms via http the url needs to end in ".ogg". This could be done by providing a filename with the sout line, something like this: vlc --sout http/ogg:<network interface>:port/filename.ogg

As a temporary hack you could append "?.ogg" to the url you give xmms.

XMMS supports es, ps and mpeg1 muxers with mpga audio out of the box. The ts muxer gives strange audio in xmms.

Our very own VLC media player.
VLC media player (initially VideoLAN Client) is a highly portable multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, ogg, ...) as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. However in recent years it has also become a extremely powerful server to stream live and on demand video in several formats to our network and the Internet.

It started as a student project at the French École Centrale Paris but is now a worldwide project with developers from 20 countries.
