The short answer is yes.

Update:

If you want to fix up this code which I just knocked up, feel free. It's almost there. Just not all the way.
Maybe somebody else can find the problem. I have gotto fix some other stuff though.
Anyway, you should get the idea and hopefully you or somebody else can post a *completely working piece of code
so you can just go right ahead and use it*, or fix up the broken part of the following code.

Code Below blot:

If you output the data to file, then open it from your media player it works fine, it's just a small fault connection/handshake issue on the socket that doesn't allow the media player to take the binary data after it connects.

Go for your lives anybody. Like I said, I am busy with other projects that are more pressing.

Cheers.
