Re: Live video streaming on FreeBSD?
Does any of these streaming solutions (encoders or servers) require me to run a GUI on my FreeBSD boxes or can I simply run them like I always do: command line only?

Apple's Darwin runs perfectly just with command-line (and has a Web-GUI, but that's not necessary for standard operation and configuration), but isn't compilable on AMD64 (because the programmers didn't think highly of portability when implementing it, i.e. assuming that a unsigned long is always 32-bit, and such), and I haven't tested whether it compiles on FreeBSD at all (all of our deployment boxes of Darwin are Linux-systems). Other than that, it's a pretty stable and mature streaming solution if you're willing to stream MP4 over RTSP (which on Windows requires QuickTime; MediaPlayer can't handle this out of the box). If you need a precompiled binary Linux-package for i386 (which should run without much hassle concerning required dependencies), send me a mail. -- Heiko Wundram Product Application Development ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

/usr/ports/multimedia/mencoder can encode/recode videos to many different formats, including wmv9 and H.264. /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc contains a streaming server, IIRC. Do any of these support multicast? Cisco is pushing this big time with AVVID. -- Brian A.

I guess there are many possible solutions. YMMV. Many solutions to many different problems. For example, you can keep multicast to the edge of your network, near the clients. YMMV. My point is, we don't have to advocate Cisco and proprietary software here, right? In fact, we don't have to advocate anything. Let's let this conversation go. It's irrelevant to this list.

I have previously used Windows Media Server and Encoder quite a lot, but I try to run as much as possible on FreeBSD. My question would be, is there a streaming server and possibly an encoder available for FreeBSD that will stream live video that is compatible with most mediaplayers (for Windows, Mac and Linux desktops)? Any help or directions are very much appreciated. ffmpeg and vlc come to mind. Both can be used as streaming servers, and ffmpeg has pretty good encoding capabilities. Other than that, I suggest you use a Ports search engine.
