Great! That means that the old hack (which you commented on earlier) on
    http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/apps/#VLC_Patch 
can go in favour of something properly integrated with the VLC code. Many thanks
for looking after this.

I am assuming that this relies on the non-blocking connect you described? If yes,
I shall make sure that the patch to do this is tidied up and submit it early next
week - this needs some more thought.

Excellent news!

|  Manually, on the sender (assuming sender IP is 2001:db8::1):
|  $ vlc -vv /dev/dvd \
|  --sout '#rtp{dccp,mux=ts,portP04}'
|  
|  On the receiver:
|  $ vlc -vv dccp://[2001:db8::1]:5004
|  
|  Or advertized with SAP, on the sender:
|  $ vlc -vv /dev/dvd \
|  --sout '#rtp{dccp,mux=ts,portP04,dst 01:db8::1,sdp=sap,name=MyDVD}'
|  
|  On the receiver, enable SAP service discovery and click MyDVD from the 
|  playlist.
|  
|  
|  We cannot support multiple streams per session, because the live555 library 
|  does not support DCCP at this time. But TS multiplexing works great anyway.
