Description

Hi,

Is it possible to play a feed which is coming from tcp or udp? It can be using format vp8 or h264.
I am casting the screen from android which is sending data over tcp or udp. I am looking for a player which can play the feed coming from either of the protocol.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by reviewing how the Electron/Node.js player accepts playback inputs, then investigate the TCP and UDP requirements for VP8 and H.264 feeds from Android. Done means the player can play the requested screen feed over either protocol, with coverage for the supported input paths.
