This is the updated useful information on the VLC component binding for.NET:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libvlcnet/[^],
https://wiki.videolan.org/C_Sharp/[^],
https://wiki.videolan.org/.Net_Interface_to_VLC/[^].

Notably, you can find material for using the component for both WPF and System.Windows.Forms.

Holy sh*t! Bored today, Sergey?? I just saw your name updating just about every single post in Q&A. ;)

No way. I just found that I know much better link which I did not provide in the past to people who might need it, so quickly updated the pages with my past answers on the topic. And I didn't want to waste time on reading too much of those old posts, so it tool me very short time. Do you think it's a problem?
Hope you were not irritated too much...

No, no. I just saw your name as the person who last updated every post on the Q&A C# page.

Hm. This is just the artifact of sorting. I've updated several pages at once, and it might sent them to the top of your view, or something like that...

I would advice VideoLAN Open Source product and C# wrapper.
Please see my recent answer:
Broadcasting video player[^].

VideoLAN is designed specially for broadcasting. Even though VLC (VideoLAN client) looks like a normal video player (and mostly used as such) it can be used for all kinds of media streaming from any source including camera, format conversions, applying filters, etc.

You seem to misunderstand me ,I want to stream the video from multi source to one server , not broadcast them .
Edit : Please tell me step-by-step , like what should i do after i start listening to a port ,and if possible write a few code example . Thank you

Sorry if I misunderstood you. However, maybe you check VideLAN documentation, it might have a way to do that, too. The total set of different functions of this software is... well, shocking.
I cannot tell anything step-by-step, sorry. It may take more of my time then of yours (because you're much closer to these topics), and I cannot afford it. Just see the product documentation; it's good but big.

By the way, I remember it does stream to one server.
I'm just curious, did you vote 3 just because you thought I referenced software not doing what you want?
RTFM first.

+5. This would be a much better way than writing this from scratch.

Thank you Marcus. Hopefully so.
