hi nico thanks for your time,

i want to "display"  ONE or more  cuseeme stream(s ) in mplayer.

as far as i know  cuseeme muxes the different streams and wrapp the  
codecs into the protocol
itself so it must be possible to display the streams in a player to  
view them or embed
them into a webpage. Could you or somebody else tell me what a  
developer need to know
about it , so i could forward the message ?


P.S. AFAIK VIC <http://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/nets/mmedia/wiki/ 
VicWiki> is compactible to cuseeme in a way
