I am creating an rtp stream via an android app and sending it to the ipaddress of the linux machine on the network. Is there a way that xbmc can automatically play that stream whenever it is sent sort of like upnp does?

The only way I have been able to play it so far is using vlc and I have to input the ipaddress of the phone for it to play so it's not automatic.

Is there a way to do this?

I guess you could make a service addon that listens for the rtp packets and when it detects them, plays the stream.

Our simpler, you could get your android app to send a JSON-RPC request to play the stream at the same time as you start it.
