Streaming media files from HTTP (internet).

For all XBMC stream supported media containers shuch as ASF/ASX, WMV, WMA & DivX/XVID AVI's from HTTP.

Stream exampel that can be used when testing for developing: http://www.thebasement.com.au/asx/9.asx http://wmt.streaming.telstra.com/UCS-wh_farmhandlive

www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/documentation.html#streaming "MPlayer can play files from network, using the HTTP, MMS or RTSP/RTP protocol"

It also looks like FFmpeg has added RTSP/RTP/TCP protocol support in the CVS of its codec library.

Otherwise maybe source code for steaming could be borrowed from VLC? VLC (VideoLAN Client) is open source a highly portable multimedia player that supports various streaming protocols, among others VLC support streaming from HTTP, FTP, MMS via RDP & UDP, see more on VLC features list http://videolan.org/vlc/features.html
