X terminal: Redirecting remote sound to my local audio device
Hello everybody,
I'm testing some aspects of X Terminal implementation and it's going great. I can use remote applications on my local slow workstation at remote's processor speed by redirecting the remote DISPLAY variable to "my_local_ip:0.0"; but i'm having troubles to get remote audio and video... I mean, Is there a way to send remote audio and video output to my local audio and video output? I don't know, by exporting some other variable, etc.
Let me explain,
I need to run, let's say, a music player, and the audio to be played in my local machine, and not in the remote one.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks everybody!
And please excuse my english, it's not my mother language.

plaympeg
PLAYMPEG(1) General Commands Manual PLAYMPEG(1)
NAME
plaympeg - MPEG audio (MP3) and video (MPEG-1) player
SYNOPSIS
plaympeg [options] file ...
DESCRIPTION
plaympeg is an MPEG audio and video player that uses the SDL MPEG Player Library. It can play back MPEG audio (layer 1, 2 and 3), MPEG
video (MPEG-1) and MPEG system (audio and video combined) files. MPEG-2 video files (as found on DVDs) are not supported.
The video player works best on a 16 bit color depth X11 display, it works on other color depths with reduced speed as well. You'll need a
CPU with 300 MHz or more to play back an MPEG system stream with 25 frames per seconds (fps) at full speed.
OPTIONS
--help Show short usage information
--noaudio
Don't play the audio stream (if available)
--novideo
Don't play the video stream (if available)
--fullscreen
Play the MPEG video stream in fullscreen mode (this requires root privileges or a setuid plaympeg binary)
-2, --double
Play the MPEG video stream at double size
-l, --loop
Play the stream (audio or video) over and over again
-v N, --volume N
Set the volume of the audio stream to N% (N in the range of 0 to 100)
-s S, --scale S
Play the MPEG video stream at S size
