Hi guys...

I need to be able to stream audio and video to WMP clients.

At the moment we use a WIndows Media Server. But i hate windows.

I have a Fedora Core 6 dedicated server that i want to run Icecast on.

So there are 2 questions that i need answered,

firstly, can WMP handle NSV streams? (Video & Audio)

Secondly, what encoder would i need to use to send the encoded content to an Icecast server?

And thirdly, has anyone done this kind of setup before?

I need to be able to stream to WMP since it is the most used media player i think.

Thanks for your help!

NSV cannot be viewed with the windows media player.

There is a ActiveX winamp player, but Vista has pretty much screwed up ActiveX, so thats useless.

You can go to www.scvi.net/software.htm for NSV encoding software or for more information on NSV.

Thanks for the info.

Can i rephrase the question by asking, how can i stream audio and video to windows media player clients by staying away from using a windows media server.

Any ideas?
