I have a piece of equipment I need to send data to in the form of a UDP packet, But the packet has a specific header and other information. I can capture a sample packet but I'm not 100% sure how to decode it into what I need to know. Here is an example of the packet sent with no additional information added.

Visual Basic:
127.0.0.1 : 1404 Length = 25 bytes : MD5 = BDD021E92EDE036451EAE709FF23D966
--- 07/20/2005 13:56:36.377

0010   44 33 03 00 00 00 00 00 00                           D3.......

and one with data added

Visual Basic:
127.0.0.1 : 1405 Length = 86 bytes : MD5 = 3A2B6C5147E89AD3A2FA2F5EBFDFC701

Basicly the packet is an ID3v2.3.0 tag as a upd packet with a different header. I am kind of answering my own question a bit but here is what I know. I have document that shows id3 message structure but I don't know how to set it up and send it as a UDP packet with the header I want.

Am I making sence? Any help would be great. I am looking through the MSDN as I type this. I am working with VB.Net.

Thanks for your time and help in this matter.
