Currently, when you configure the relay address, it only accepts an IP address in numerical format. Need to allow to set it as a FQDN and set the default to be amt-relay.m2icast.net (currently it's 198.38.23.145).

In windows build, must specify the source address- only specifying the group address does nothing. This is not the case in the Mac build, as SSM and ASM both work fine.

By default, AMT relay is blank in the windows build. Should work like the mac build, where 198.38.23.145 is pre-populated as the AMT relay

Need a way to list active multicast streams that can be viewed with this VLC build using AMT. A python script already exists that finds all the active multicast streams on the I2 routers:

https://github.com/willzhang05/senior-research

An example of the results can be found here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/willzhang05/senior-research/master/logs/results.txt

Need to take these results and populate a portal that users can easily click on and launch this VLC build and view these streams with AMT. Ideally, the portal would be a webpage where users can click on the streams and launch VLC. If that's not possible, at least populate a VLC playlist library with this content (like one of the "Internet" sites like Jamendo and Icecast).

When unzipping the win zip file
(https://github.com/Juniper/amt-vlc/blob/master/precompiled-binaries/Windows/vlc-4.0.0-dev-win32.zip), there is an extra dir called MACOSX. The dir only contaings one dll file.

This appears to just be a harmless cosmetic issue.

VLC developers commented on some issues with the code. Mainly:

• check that things were ACTUALLY allocated
• "Also, you should be using strok_r() to ensure the buffer isn't clobbered by another thread."
• when freeing mcastGroup, relayAddr, and srcAddr, dont need to check if NULL
• use vlc_strerror in many cases instead of msg_error

If the FQDN for the AMT relay address in the preferences pane has leading or trailing white space, VLC will be unable to open the multicast stream (presumably because name resolutions of the relay fails). This can happen when copying/pasting the FQDN.

Would there be a way to trim whitespace?

Hi,

VLC crashes on Mac OS X Mojave for me. Syslog shows:

Oct 15 15:47:46 MBP-Retina com.apple.xpc.launchd[1] (org.videolan.vlc.3188[5904]): Service exited due to SIGABRT
On 10.13 on my other machines it works smoothly with AMT.
