Title: MP3 Format
Post by: Hdx on February 15, 2005, 02:13 AM
Ok, well I've been looking around all day. Maby someone here can answer my questions. (plz dont tell me to google it)
What I am trying to do Is create a Audio player. BUT I want to be able to stream to a remote location (ae: school :P).
Talking to my Comp teacher he suggested that I should basiclly jsut insted of streaming the data to the local speakers I should stream it to the remote computer. (IPtoIP connection) And have the client ont he reciving end simply forword that data to THERE speakers.
Well I ahve no clue how to do that as I have never worked with MP3 format befor. So what I need is MP3 file formats, so that I can figure out what egzactly makes the noise. Also if anyone has information on the acuall mechanics of speakers (how they interprit data) That would Help.

Would seem to be more of a bandwidth whore than a ram whore.
