Voice over IP & VB ?!?

[BogdanMBM]

Hie!

I'm working on an intranet broadcast application, using winsock and TCP/IP. Now, I'm able to send allmoust live pictures over network, but NO sound.
Anybody knows how to broadcast sound using winsock (sound streams or something?), or do I need DX for this? I'd rather use winsock, 'cause for DX I should rewrite the application and that's not appealing to me...
Mybe some TAPI api's envolved here?

Thanks!

I never done this before but if you can get the sound and store it in your HD, you can get the sound and send it thru winsock and play ir in other PC.
For example if I caputre 1 second, send it to the other PC and the other PC plays it.

Hmmm...

Sounds interesting, but I kind of wanna do it LIVE.
If I record less then 1 second, could be allmost live. Even so, I still have a problem: HDD is not a good (I meen FAST) solution.
There has to be a way to capture sound and send it with winsock without using a file on HDD.

Any ideas?

Can I capture sound in a byte array and send it with winsock ?!?

See this example:

This example at pscode.com uses a third party OCX. I want the code (or sugestions), not compiled OCX.

Guys! I've found the code I was looking for. Actualy, I've found 2 methods:

[1] WaveStream.dll method

[2] DirectX (DirectSound) method

These 2 links I tuck from:
