"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 as well or otherwise? 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 the VLC features list for the rest
http://videolan.org/vlc/features.html ).
