  • /dev/dvd is the name of your DVD drive or the directory where you copied your DVD ,

  • 192.168.0.42 is either :

    • the IP address of the machine you want to unicast to ;

    • or the DNS name the machine you want to unicast to ;

    • or a multicast IP address .

  • 12 is the value of the TTL (Time To Live) of your IP packets (which means that the stream will be able to cross 11 routers) .

If you want to stream the DVD continuously, add the --loop option .
