[QUOTE="patrick, post: 31916, member: 12502"] Hi BabyG, AFAIK there is nothing in MP to currently do what you are asking. I sure many people would be happy if you developed a solution though, as it has been requested a lot. Just fyi, I think some people have use VLC for streaming but not sure about live TV. (Maybe search the forum for VLC or VideoLan) ([url]http://www.videolan.org/[/url]) As for some basics you may want to look at if you are going to develop something for MP: For the streaming part you will want to look at Multicasting so all the clients can subscribe to a single stream. Meaning basically the server sends out the data one time and all the clients get it vs sending the same data to each client individually. (also multicasting is supported by many routers so you could multicast over the internet) [url]http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/multicast.asp[/url] For the multicast server you would want a MP process plugin to make the stream available to clients as well as information about what is playing so the client can decide if they want to watch. For the client end (assuming you are using another MP computer as the client) you could setup a new window plugin that will look to the server(s) for available streams, subscribe and play the content. As far as reading the live tv file see how MP does it internally while timeshifting. HTH, patrick [/QUOTE]
