Python Forum

I have googled this for days on end and can't find a satisfactory answer.
I have a library of audio files on a pc. I want to play one of them across a network/internet on another pc.
So far the only way that has worked is setting up the simple http server, and using vlc as player. Not very elegant, and seeking is a pain.

Please someone point me in the direction of a better way. Thanks.

If you don't use a server, doesn't that qualify as a virus?
You should not be able to run anything on a client machine unless invited to do so by the client.

Yes, I need a server, the point is a simple http server is not the right server!
I have experimented with a tool made for the job called "edna" but it doesn't allow seeking, which is necessary.
