Directshow LAN streaming?

[DigitalDeviant]

Is there a directshow player available that can stream across a LAN like VLC can?

Not quite sure what you mean by "directshow player" but Microsoft's free Windows Media Encoder (WME) can take just about any AVI, MPG etc as input (even live video), encode it to WMV and stream it over a network live. Clients can use Windows Media Player to view it.

I mean I need some way of streaming from one PC to another on the same network that uses directshow. I need to use the same splitters, decoders, etc. (specifically CoreAVC, ffdshow, directvosub) that would be used if I played it in MPC or other directshow media players.

Are you writing a program that needs this?
else you could probably just use VLC by itself. I am pretty sure it does streaming, both up and down.

Leadtools makes a streaming filter module, with recompression and everything. Costs $300 though.

You can also put together an avisynth script with Directshowsource and TCPServer, leave it open with vdub or avsp, and on the other side open one with TCPSource. You get some lossless compression, or you can even serve a DirectShowSource script into ffmpeg and stream it from there, reencoded or raw.

Can't you just open it in MPC on a network share or something?

Works for me.
