I have some strange req.
Its not related to any coding stuff.

I have some video and I want to run it on server and will show on the projector.
now, my req. is, users which have client computers should here that audio Via headphones not on speakers.( Projectors PC and Client Machines Are connected in LAN.)

In-short, I want to show the video on projector but users should here the video by headphone via LAN network.
(I don't want to use the Speakers)

How to do this ? Is there any application available ?
( I am happy if anybody suggest a forum where I can put this post, as I have put this in this forum.)

Good luck!

Your major problem is going to be synchronizing the sound to the projector output: You will be dealing with umpteen different devices, all of which have their own idea of time. It won't take much for any tiny imbalance to be noticeable - you would be surprised how little we can detect and be annoyed by. If they each have their own PC, why not show the video there? That way the video and audio are always together...

OP commented:

I am not getting what you want to say ....
I just want to hear sound of the video playing on the server to all the clients which are connected to them.
Projector is not the issue.
Please read my question again.

Strange requirement indeed. I can see only one solution. Broadcast video with audio on all client computers and make one client connected to the projector.

For broadcasting, you can use VideoLAN, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoLAN[^], http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLC_media_player[^], http://www.videolan.org/[^].

It does all kind of trick as a media streaming solution, player and converter.
