clic allows to use the graph builder of NMM that automatically creates a distributed flow for playing back the content from a given URL:
./clic -u <url>?<option>=<value> -A <host for audio output> -V <host for video output> |
By specifying a host for audio or video output, clic allows to distribute the playback of media. For example:
./clic -u file://host1/home/bob/video/movie.mpeg -A host2 -V host3 |
Reads an MPEG audio/video file from the host host1. Audio is played back on host host2, video is played back on host host3. Notice: you need a NMM serverregistry running on all three host. Notice: for synchronized media playback, you need to setup NTP properly.
