Gstreamer is used for setting up the RTSP(Real Time Streaming Protocol) based server.And at the client side i used VLC Media player to open the input network stream by specifying the IP adress & default port no of server.
C code which i used for setting up the streaming server goes like:

But when tried with SERVER and CLIENT on different machines ,vlc displayed the following message:
connection was not established
VLC unable to open the MRL
I dont know why it is not working when tried with server and client on different machines.Help me answer these questions as i need to demonstrate streaming between a server and client computer by connecting using a LAN cable,as a part of my project .
1)Is this a connection failure? if yes ,how can i solve it?
actually i established the connection using a LAN CABLE ,and proxy was set on both sides identifiying one as server and other as client.
2)Do i need to modify the code?
3)Where do you think the problem is ? client side or server side?
Please some one help me with this........as i need to complete this project by next week
