[Live-devel] open source mp3 player to play streams received from testMP3Receievr.cpp

The demo application "testMP3Receiver" outputs its received data as a 
regular MP3 file, so any MP3 player will be able to play it.

Did you mean to ask about a player application that could play the 
stream that is sent by "testMP3Streamer" (not "testMP3Receiver")?  If 
so, then VLC <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/> can play the stream. 
First, however, you will need to modify the "testMP3Streamer.cpp" 
code to uncomment the line
	#define IMPLEMENT_RTSP_SERVER 1
and then recompile.  The application will then print out a 
"rtsp://..." URL, which you can enter into VLC.

Ditto - VLC.
