Subject: [Udpcast] Udpcast for streaming data.
Message-ID: <4A673FFC.2090609@enigma.det.uvigo.es>

Hi list,

I was looking for a tool to send a stream of data with FEC where the 
client/receiver can connect even if the stream has yet begun. I haven't 
found anything but Udpcast that can do anything similar. I think that 
maybe an "streaming" option can be added so the sender sends Hello 
packets at the end of a block of slices+FEC so a receiver can hook to 
the UDP stream.

What do you think about this? Can this be made modifying Udpcast without 
broken it all? Is there another software that I can use?

Greetings,

Jorge M

Sounds like a good idea. I'll consider adding this for the next version.
