Fuzzy Audio Player is a network streaming audio player, designed and implemented for our BCIT Data Communications course (COMP 4985) final project.
It is a Win32 application written in C++, making use of the libzplay library for it's audio component, and the Windows Socket API for the network component.
The application suite comes with a server and a client application.
- Streams .wav files
- Multicasting
- Upload songs to the server
- Download songs from the server
- Microphone chat
Before starting, make sure that you have the libzplay.dll in the same folder as all the .exe files. In addition, make sure to have a 'Stream' folder which will contain all the .wav files you want to listen to through the player.
Launching the FuzzyAudioPlayerServer.exe will start the server. It automatically starts a multicast channel, streaming
all the .wav songs contained in the 'Stream' folder; make sure you have at least one .wav file in this folder to
start streaming.
- Launch the
FuzzyAudioPlayerClient.exeto launch the client. - Type the correct IP address and port of the server.
- Once finished, you will see a list of songs available for downloading or streaming.
- To select an operation, click the radio button and press the 'OK' button.
For more information on how the application works and the design, see the documentation.
