In my application I am currently using a Windoze box running Windows Media Encoder to generate a WMV stream, which I am then pushing to a CDN (edgecast) for distribution to end users. I would, of course, prefer to do this without having to run Redmond-ware. It appears that I can generate a WMV stream from VLC to be served up locally or via multicast, but I haven't been able to dig up any info on how I could go about pushing said stream to a WMS server. I understand how to push to a single IP (I think). What I'm not sure about is how to handle the extra information the CDN needs. For example, take a look at the screen shot at http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz91/catdude60440/Work/WinMediaScreen.png. That's the stream config page in Windows Media Encoder. It's asking for server name (no biggy there) and publishing point. Any suggestions? Or am I stuck running Redmond-ware in a VMware session? _______________________________________________ streaming mailing list To unsubscribe or modify your subscription options: http://mailman.videolan.org/listinfo/streaming
