Detailed Description

LibVLC media discovery finds available media via various means.

This corresponds to the service discovery functionality in VLC media player. Different plugins find potential medias locally (e.g. user media directory), from peripherals (e.g. video capture device), on the local network (e.g. SAP) or on the Internet (e.g. Internet radios).
