VLC uses this protocol (or access module) to read data from a device or network. |
HTTP stands for HyperText Transport Protocol. It's an application network layer developed in the early days of the Internet to transmit HTML and text files. Today it's used for every kind of media, thanks to its flexibility.
VLC media player can use this protocol for multimedia streaming. It can read a stream from an HTTP server like Apache, or act like an HTTP server dumping multimedia over the network.
