Hi there,

I want to stream DVD Audio over a Shoutcast server which will sync up with a screen showing a DVD Movie.

1) Is this possible with Shoutcast?
2) How can I reduce the latency so that the movie will synchronise up with the audio feed correctly?

Any tips gratefully received.

You will have to delay the video feed, SHOUTcast by nature must buffer and so must the Client (Winamp) this way the player is not relaying heavily on the latency of your network and/or network connection, if you can't delay the video feed, set the client buffer to 0 or as small as it will go in the MPEG Input plugin configuration in your Client side Winamps
