Is it possible to use QMediaPlayer to send audio stream to another computer?

Given an IP address and port number, is it possible to send audio stream to another computer?

Hi,

Not with QMediaPlayer. Can you explain a bit more what you are trying to achieve ?

[JoeCFD]

Using QMediaPlayer a song can be played in a local computer. Easy and no problem.
I would to like to send the audio stream through the network to another computer simply with QMediaPlayer which does have some network settings. But not sure how to do it.

[SGaist]

Streaming is rather the other way around. One machine emits the data and others connect to it.

If on Linux then you can leverage GStreamer for that.

@SGaist True. I can do that. But, is it nicer for QMediaPlayer to have this feature?

[SGaist]

With the latest Qt versions you can run custom GSteamer pipelines.

@SGaist Great! That is what I need. Thank you so much.
