If you're looking for on-demand streaming (each client connects and views a stream starting from the beginning) as opposed to live streaming (many clients join a single video/audio feed and stream from whatever live moment is currently playing from the source), as one author of the now-ubiquitous SHOUTcast streaming system allow me to wholeheartedly recommend apache for on-demand streams. Most client solutions support HTTP streams.

If you need live video streaming (and by the sound of your note I don't believe you do) videolan.org has some very decent options. For live audio, my old projects at shoutcast.com live on, and icecast, while a product with a smaller client audience, has also proven itself to be excellent.

Hello,

I am looking for an audio, and video streaming server.

I have installed and configured gini and ffserver so far only to find they don't work.

Does anyone have one installed on 4.10 (or close) that works! Works for streaming that is, I can use http to simply download files.

I need to stream from a local file.

Lightweight is good enough, I will not be streaming anything big, some small advertisements and instructional videos.

Any help would be appreciated.
