Media Streaming

faint545 · 02-01-2011, 05:37 PM

I was just wondering if there is a software package that will allow my linux server to process video files (mainly AVI and MKV) so that they can be streamed over the network or Internet. I obviously wouldn't be able to stream files between 600MB and 8GB over the Internet and have it play smoothly. What my plan is to setup something so that I can stream my videos over the Internet when I am not home. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Or maybe there's a software that can break the video file into "parts" and only send out blocks at specific intervals?

Hello,

There is vlc which has some streaming features: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/streaming.html
Or you may also try Darwin Streaming Server: http://www.hiteshagrawal.com/linux/i...erver-on-linux

Hope it helps,
