software to map audio to a remote computer

[lockmac]

Hi there. I am atfter a program that lets me map audio from one computer to another. E.g. im on my laptop, and i want the sound to come out of the speakers connected to my desktop. I know you can do this with RDP but thats using a console of the other computer- i want to be using another computer but have the audio rouoted to the remote computer.

Does anybody know of software that does this?

Ive had a good look on the internet and can't seem to find anything.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks guys

Here's what a Google search turned up. It looks like VLC may do what you want.

Unless you have a lot of spare CPU cycles, though, you may be better off with a hardware splitter or switch.

Thanks for the reply. What that user on the whirlpool forum is trying to achieve is a bit different from what im trying to achieve though.

I know it's different; but it looks like if:

u could use a program like VLC to stream from a recording device and just select Stereo mix (XP) as the recording devide in the windows sound controll.

I think that would stream the audio output from your laptop; then you just play it on your desktop. Am I missing something?
