application streams an MP3 file and it works fine with just one listener,
which for the purpose of my testing is VLC. If I open up a second
instance of VLC, connect to my stream and play the sound on both of the
listeners is garbled. Note that both instances of VLC are on the same
machine.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT color=#005080 face="Trebuchet MS"><SPAN class=428111514-07022012>Is
this behaviour normal? I assumed that both instances of VLC will connect
to the stream and play it fine, but that appears not to be the
case.</SPAN></FONT></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR></DIV></DIV>There's a lot of information missing here. You
haven't said much about what your application does. Does it stream the MP3
via multicast (e.g., like "testMP3Streamer"), or does it stream via unicast
(from a RTSP server)? And are you really streaming from a MP3 file, or
from a single MP3 source (in which case don't forget to set "reuseFirstSource"
to True if you're streaming unicast from a RTSP server)?
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Also, you say that you are running two instances of VLC on the same
computer. I have no idea what VLC is supposed to do with audio in this
case (do you have separate sound cards on this computer, or just one??), but any
problems that you have with audio in this situation will likely have nothing to
do with our software.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Why not first try to run your two instances of VLC on *different* machines?
And remember that you can also use "openRTSP" to test RTSP client behavior
(and in a way that involves only our software, not VLC).</DIV><BR><BR>
