Streaming audio from clients to server

Hi folks,
I am looking for a method in which I can stream audio from a device mac/win to the server which is connected to the good sound system over the local network.
I have looked at pulseaudio and followed the directions in the wiki, but without any results
This was a linux to linux setup. But it seems to only get worse when trying to stream from mac/win (found these pages)
https://labitat.dk/wiki/Apple/Mac_OS_X#PulseAudio
http://gleamynode.net/articles/2228/
So what I am looking for here is either a thorough tutorial/directions or a plug n play solution.
Any inputs, links or directions are greatly appreciated, since I have spent this entire weekend researching it, and failed horribly every time

hmm its simple and it sort of works. Their is very little documentation as far as I can see.
I start server by commiting rsd -D -v
then stream some audio by cat sound.wav | rsdplay -s 127.0.0.1 --raw -r 44100 -c 2
It sounds very sluggish, and it also tells me that Only 8 or 16 bit WAVE files supported.
Also it looks like the last update was a OSS patch which was mentioned in the original thread over a year ago

FLEX 2.0 and Flash Media Server 2.0 Unable to stream from client to server

Hi All,
I have been trying to put together a quick demo to stream

Hi,
Are you trying to make an air app or a web application (flash) for streaming? You may want to check out the osmf framework to help you write a player for mobile platform. Check out http://www.opensourcemediaframework.com/ for more info on how you can write streaming video players using this framework. There are some good tutorials there and also you may post on the forum to get your specific queries solved.
Thanks,

Stream-in images from client to server,without running the transmit code

Hello all,
Im using JMF for my current project.Right now,I am trying to only recieve images from the client without the client transmitting it.That is I dont want the transmit code to run on the client.
I should just be able to stream in the images from client to server, without running the transmit code on client.
Can this be done?
Thanks in advance

Can I know more about this?Sure.
<Side A>
You'd just need to write an application that doesn't have a GUI (so, a console-based application) that listens on some pre-determined port for a message to start broadcasting. Maybe you'd send it the IP/PORT number to start broadcasting on. Once it receives that message, it'd start broadcasting the web cam to the IP/PORT number until it received a message to stop. Once it stops, it'll just go back to waiting for the next "start" signal.
<Side B>
On the other side, you'd write an application that sends the start messages, receives/displays the videos, and then sends the stop signal. This will have a GUI, and be your "control program" so to speak.
Then, once of have both of those programs working...if you're using Linux, you're done. If you're using Windows, you'd need to modify the <Side A> program so that it can run as a Windows service.
There are a lot of ways to do this, you can google it or look at the following link:

Streaming audio from Logic 7.2

Has anyone found a good way to stream audio from Logic to another computer via the web? I'm tweaking a sound design mix for a client in another city and would love to be able to get them on the phone and have them be able to participate in real time. Where's the Rocket Network when you need it? : )Thanks.

2 solutions:
1. Old school: get a telephone coupler and send the mix down the phone line.
2. iChat: feed your mix into a small mixer, open a mic when you want to talk, and feed the mix into your "line input" on iChat (make sure it's selected in preferences) and do an audio chat.

I recently purchased an Onkyo stereo receiver with a wireless USB adapter, UWF-1, and want to stream audio from my MacBook Pro through my stereo system. The receiver tells me it is connected to my wireless LAN, but I cannot get music to play?

New to the community here, thanks for your patience. I recently purchased an Onkyo TX-8050 Network Stereo Receiver with the UWF-1 USB adapter with the intent to stream audio from my MacBook Pro to the stereo. I have gone through the setup instructions for the adapter and the receiver gives me a message saying that it is connected to the password protected network, but that is as far as I can get.
I have gone into iTunes and clicked on the "Open Stream" option, but I just get a pop up box labeled "URL" that is empty. I have Home Sharing turned on and File Sharing turned on, but I am not seeing the receiver in my Finder window or as a iTunes device.
I would appreciate any and all advice and assistance.
Thanks so much.

So I have been searching the iStore for Airplay and I find lots of information about what it is, but nothing about how much it costs, how/where to buy it, etc.?
Fortunately, AirPlay does not cost anything as it is a streaming protocol used by Apple. Currently, the AirPort Express and Apple TV are AirPlay-ready. A number of other companies, like JBL, iHome, Denon and Klipsch are also rumored to be working on AirPlay versions of their products.
Your other option would be to get an AirPort Express and connect it to your Onkyo analog or optical digital audio input and stream from iTunes that way. I currently do this with my 10+ year old Harmon Kardon HT receiver.

How to transfer passwords encrypted from client to server?

Hello dear community,
I have already some experience with programming and did a lot of web-software, but I never was facing the problem that passwords are transfered as plain text to the server when using a login-form.
For my front-end, I use Java ServerFaces 2.0.
I read a lot of hints like using a javascript based MD5 library and send the password as MD5 but this can be sniffed an decrypted easily.
Do you have some hints to easily implement a secure transfer of values from client to server?
best regards,
Berni

How can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.

how can I stream audio from Apple TV 2 to Airport Express speakers.
I have LCD projector on one wall and connected ATV to it via HDMI.
Speakers on the other wall and connected to APXpress.

To be honest the times we've wanted to have music from more than one set of speakers, I've usually used my mac's iTunes library and controlled it either from the mac or from my phone, since they're not really the times we have any TV on anyway. I've tested AirTunes from the Apple TV but can't recall whether it worked with content from a streaming library.
Now I've got something to do.

Sending an object from client to server always on button press

What I need is to send an object from client to server but I need to make server wait until another object is sent. What I have is the JFrame where you put the wanted name and surname, then you create a User object with these details and on button press you send this object to the server. I just can't hold the connection because when I send the first object, server doesn't wait for another button click and throws EOFexception. Creating the while loop isn't helpfull as well because it keeps sending the same object again and again. The code is here
public class ClientFrame extends JFrame {
    private JButton btnSend;
    private JTextField txfName;
    private JTextField txfSurname;
    public ClientFrame() {
        this.setTitle(".. ");
        Container con = this.getContentPane();
        con.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        txfName = new JTextField("name");
        txfSurname = new JTextField("surname");
        btnSend = new JButton(new AbstractAction() {
            @Override

Current code fails because it's sending still the same entity again(using while loop)No it's not. You are creating a new User object every time around the loop.
which makes the system freezeWhich means that you are executing network code in the event thread. Don't do that, use a separate thread. At the moment you're doing all that sending inside the constructor for ClientFrame which is an even worse idea: you can never get out of there to the rest of your client program. This is a program design problem, not a networking problem.
and doesn't allow me to set new parameters of the new entityI do not understand.
I need to find a way to keep Server running even when the client doesn't send any data and wait until the client doesnt press the send button again to read a new object.That's exactly what happens. readObject() blocks until data is received.

Stream Audio From iPhone 3GS To MacBook Pro

Is it possible to stream audio from an iPhone 3GS (playing in the iPod app) to a MacBook Pro over Bluetooth, so that the music plays through the MacBook's internal speakers?
Obviously you could just connect the headphone socket of the iPhone 3GS to the line in socket of the MacBook Pro, but doing it over Bluetooth would be much tidier.

There is a way with WiFi, but you need to "Modify" your iPhone to do it.

Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode.

I am Streaming audio from my IPAD to my Apple TV from Rhapsody application. when Apple TV go into Screen Saver mode, about 5 minutes after that it stops playing the Audio Stream and goes into Sleep mode. I am using the Optical Out from the Apple TV to my receiver, the Apple TV is hard Wired to the Network, the IPAD is Wirelessly attached to the network (it continues to play the Audio Stream). When the Apple TV is turned back on it resumes playing once I manual select it for output from the IPAD. All device are on current releases of software. I have no Video hooked up to the Apple TV. How do I correct this?

Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.

Date converting to less one day while transferring from client to server

Hi,
I have very typical problem. My application is in java, we are using oralce 9ias. The problem when the server is running in german locale and client is running in english. We the date value is passed from client to server it is converting to one day less.
i.e.
If i want to search with records jan 02,2005,
on server side if we print the value it is getting as jan 01,2005.
Can anybody help me in solving the above problem.
Its bit very urgent.
Thanks in advance
regards
Kalyan

well, i have had nightmares with this problem. here are the reason and soln:
reason:
in ur DB, u r using a field "Date" which does not include time information. Hence, any date will be taken at 00:00:00. If such a date is opened in some other timezone, which is ahead of the server timezone, the date differs by one. This is becoz java always considers the millisecond info encapsulated in the date, calendar.
soln:
Step 1:
u must be able to get the "timeZoneOffset" from a calendar object. This timeZoneOffset will give the number of minutes/seconds/hours... by which the system is offset from GMT.
Thus if u create a calendar in India, the timeZoneOffset will be 330. If you create the calendar in UK, it will be 0.
To achieve this, we have made an object-UTCDate. This class encapsulates a Calendar. It has a function called "getTimeZoneOffset".
Step 2:
Once u get the timeZoneOffset, here is what u need to do in ur code. (assume that the timeZoneOffset is in minutes. the variable names will be self-explanatory)
at the client side code:
long timeInMillis = calendar.getTime().getTime() + (timeZoneOffsetOfTheCalendarReceivedFromServer * 60 * 1000 ) - (timeZoneOffsetOfClient * 60 * 60 )
use timeInMillis to make a new Date Object and use this date object.
at the server side code:
long timeInMillis = calendar.getTime().getTime() + (timeZoneOffsetOfTheCalendarReceivedFromClient * 60 * 1000 ) - (timeZoneOffsetOfServer * 60 * 60 )
hope this helps.

// to get current time in Germany

    int seconds = cal.get(Calendar.SECOND);

Does anyone know a way to stream audio from Snow Leopard to a PPC running Panther?

I have recently aquired a iMac PPC, I've freshly installed Panther on it and it runs a treat. I was wondering however if there is a way to stream audio from my main Desktop, a 2007 iMac running Snow Leopard. iTunes library share isn't a solution either as I use Spotify a my main source of music and unfortunetly it is no longer supported for PPC's.
Thanks, Tim

Unfortunately I could get neither of these to work, probably because of my own ineptitude.
I couldn't get VLC to output from Spotify, this could be my own fault.
I also couldn't make Airplay play with OS X 10.3.9.
I did however find a messy workaround.
I am currently using Airfoil on my main Desktop to output Spotify and then am receiving it on Airfoil Speaker on my iPhone, which is in turn connected to my 10.3.9 iMacs audio input via a 3.5mm Jack.
You need to download an app called LineIn for 10.3 (http://www.rogueamoeba.com/legacy/) to play the sound from the input from the built in speakers.
To be fair it's not that messy it just requires you to have a device that can have Airfoil Speakers installed on it and have a 3.5mm Jack.

How to deploy Forms, Reports and Menu from Client to Server machine

Dear Experts,
I have one requirement to deploy the Forms, Reports and Menu from client machine to server machine.
Deployment involves the following steps :
1. Firstly we have to search the selected file in a folder where the .fmx is present ( in Server machine) and take the back up of the the existing file in the server (Source and destination paths will be available).
Ex. If the existing FMB name is TEST.fmx then the backup file should be TEST_sysdate.fmx.
2. Secondly we have to transfer the file from the client folder (or from another folder of the same server) to the server folder where the back up exists.
Please help me to search/rename/copy/replace the _.fmx/.rdf/.rep/.mmx_ files from client to server.
We are using
9i Database.
10g Forms and reports.
SQL Developer tool.
OS is Windows (Client and Server).
Help me out to attach a file of front end screen which we are planning to develop. It will give a clear picture on this requirement.
Thanks :)

Welcome to the forum. Please take a while to go through the FAQ to be found to the top right of the page.
Your issue is more to do with batch files rather than Forms. The only relation with Forms, as I see it, is that you will be using HOST/CLIENT_HOST to start a batch file with the file name to be deployed as a parameter passed to it.
You need to rewrite either a CMD batch file or a Powershell script to achieve what have set out to do.
For CMD batch files look up http://www.robvanderwoude.com/battech.php , or any of the other excellent resources available on the internet.
