VLMa - User documentation

Typical VLMa installation

Servers running VLC have one or more DVB-S or DVB-T cards in order to acquiresignal. VLMa periodically checks that medias are really streamed. If not itsends new orders to VLC servers through their telnet interfaces. Note that youcan also use VLMa to stream file channels or to stream existing streams (forexample if you want to stream in multicast an existing HTTP stream).

Although servers have to run VLC (VLMa doesn't know about other softwares'syntax / way of sending commands), clients do not have to run VLC but any mediaplayer that is able to read UDP (or HTTP in case of a network that does notsupport multicast) streams.

Generalities

VLMa daemon saves its state in the data.xml file located in thedata folder and its configuration in the config.propertiesfile located in the conf folder.
