multi-format video server./player recommendation

rjswilson · 05-15-2007, 05:32 PM

I am looking for a muti-format video server/player - ability to stream/play most formats/containers including XVid, H.264, mpeg2, mpeg4, rawvideo, theora, flashvideo, dirac, wmv, H.363+, rma, nsv, mpeg4, and numerous others as having browser tune-in/active-x capabilities.

I currently use nsv/vp6 format open source server and looking to switch if anyone knows of better servers/players.

Thanks
Bob

The best multimedia app in Linux AFAIC is MPlayer. I don't know if it supports every format you've listed, but it's a great app. Just my 2 cents
