I searched around a bit and came to the conclusion that it was something to do with either Windows 7, or having a 64-bit machine. I settled for the 64-bit issue as it&#8217;s not uncommon for the 64-bit architecture to create problems.<\/p>\n<p>I eventually found a combination of netcat and mplayer that worked! Here&#8217;s a tutorial on how to do it.<\/p>\n<h2>How to do it<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/eternallybored.org\/misc\/netcat\/\">Download netcat 1.12 from here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oss.netfarm.it\/mplayer-win32.php\">Download the AMD64 version of mplayer r36169\u00a0from here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Unzip them on a Windows machine into a folder so you have, amongst other files::<\/p>\n<pre>\u00a0 \u00a0 MPlayer-x86_64-r36169+g2844ea8mplayer.exe\r\n\u00a0 \u00a0 netcat-win32-1.12nc64.exe<\/pre>\n<p>Created a batch file (called Wait-for-stream.bat) with the following command in it:<\/p>\n<pre>netcat-win32-1.12\/nc64.exe -L -p 5001 | \"MPlayer-x86_64-r36169+g2844ea8mplayer.exe\" -vo direct3d -fps 31 -cache 1024 -<\/pre>\n<p>Note: I had to specify the -vo direct3d option as otherwise all I got was a black screen. No idea why this was needed, but I guess it&#8217;s something to do with my laptop specifically, so you may find you don&#8217;t need it.<\/p>\n<p>On the Raspberry Pi, create a script (stream-to-netcat.sh) and add the following line to it:<\/p>\n<pre>raspivid -t 999999 --hflip -o - | nc 192.168.1.64 5001<\/pre>\n<p>An explanation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 16px;\">-t 999999 means that the camera will keep capturing for that number of milliseconds. Increase if you need to.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>-hflip Currently, the camera flips its output horizontally. This is something to do with the camera being &#8216;front facing&#8217;. This is being reviewed to see if it can be changed (which I know it can because it used to work the correct way around)<\/li>\n<li>-o &#8211; \u00a0This means &#8216;output the data to standard out&#8217; &#8211; effectively dump the output to the console.<\/li>\n<li>| nc &#8211; This means send the output from the camera through a &#8216;pipe&#8217; into netcat (which does the actual broadcast)<\/li>\n<li>The IP address is the address of my Windows 7 64-bit laptop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the Windows, run the batch script Wait-for-stream.bat to start the &#8216;listener&#8217;. You should get:<\/p>\n<pre>MPlayer sherpya-r36169+g2844ea8-4.6 (C) 2000-2013 MPlayer Team\r\nPlaying -.\r\nReading from stdin...\r\n<span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em; line-height: 1.6875;\">Cache fill: 0.00% (0 bytes)<\/span><\/pre>\n<p>On the Pi, run the stream-to-netcat.sh script. Nothing should appear on the Pi.<\/p>\n<p>On the Windows machine, the Cache will start to fill up, a bit of Codec debug will appear and the video should show on-screen.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s it! A lot of fiddling about, but worth it so I can run Windows on Saturday at the Cambridge Jam!
