SyphonCFSocketSender & SyphonCFSocketReceiver?

[jgunther]

I’m trying to hack my way to build SyphonCFSocketSender and SyphonCFSocketReceiver classes.

Has anyone done this before?

[bangnoise]

Sounds interesting…

I imagine it should be easy enough to do. Is this with a view to a networked Syphon, or for use elsewhere?

[jgunther]

Yes, to a networked Syphon. Here is the concept:

Syphon Server –> TCP Network –> Syphon Client

Is this possible?

[bangnoise]

Anything is possible 😉

The messaging is the easy part though. The challenge will be getting the frames across the network.

I’d like to support the project. If I provided a donation, could this be implemented?

[vade]

Yea. I had done some looking into this, and there is an RFC for sending uncompressed YUV frames. I think VLC and GStreamer support RFC 4175, which is I think what you would want to handle.

http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/gst-plugins-good-plugins/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-plugin-rtp.html

see : rtpvrawdepay and rtpvrawpay

Would be very curious / exciting to see that indeed!
