DESCRIPTION
pob-fec
receives a FEC MP3 stream using a custom protocol. The streamed MP3
frames are first decomposed in autonomous data units (ADUs). These
ADUs are grouped into ADU groups, which are encoded redundantly using
a FEC method by Luigi Rizzo. For example, a group if 8 ADUs can be
encoded into 16 packets. Any 8 received packets of these 16 packets is
sufficient to recover the original 8 ADUs. The incoming MP3 stream is
decoded, buffered and written to stdout.
OPTIONS
- -s address
-
Specify the address to listen to (default 224.0.1.23). If the address
is a multicast address, group membership is requested automatically.
- -p port
-
Specify the port to listen to.
- -b size
-
Specify the number of ADU groups that are hold in the buffer (default 16).
- -q
-
Don't output any information on standard error.
EXAMPLES
- pob-fec -s 224.0.1.24 -p 8989 | mpg123 -
-
Receive the MP3 FEC stream sent to 224.0.1.24 on port 8989 and feed it
