Folks,
For those using the BCD536HP or SDS200 RTSP LAN audio. I found out about a program called MediaMTX. Thanks to Brian H. for sending me a bug report stating the ProScan LAN audio wasn't working with MediaMTX and describing the problem in detail.
What MediaMTX does is it gets around the limitation of one app at a time can use the scanner LAN audio. MediaMTX connects to the scanner LAN audio and multiple ProScan instances or a combination of ProScan and VLC audio players connects to MediaMTX.
Ready-to-use Media-over-QUIC / SRT / WebRTC / RTSP / RTMP / LL-HLS / MPEG-TS / RTP live media server and media proxy that allows to read, publish, proxy, record and playback real-time video and aud...

Setup may seem kind of complicated but it's really simple.
Setup:
1) Go to this link and download, unzip, and copy the files to a new folder
MediaMTX download page
It shows as RtspSimpleServer because it was renamed to MediaMTX
2) Edit the mediamtx.yml file. Underlines represents spaces. Zero spaces for "paths", two spaces for "scanner_1", and four for "source". It's important or the program will error.
paths:
__scanner_1:
____source: rtsp://192.168.254.22/au:scanner.au
{substitute scanner IP address}
3) At the command prompt, run mediamtx.exe
4) In ProScan, enter in this URL in the URL Setup box:
rtsp://192.168.254.11:8554/scanner_1
{substitute computer running MediaMTX IP address}
The next version 23.5 is ready and will be released this week. It will have the MediaMTX fix in it.
