Hello listmates,

I am looking for a solution to stream audio (mp3) and video (mostly mpg) from my Apache webserver. I have seen several solutions out there on the web, but before I implement something, I would like to ask the openSUSE crowd what they like to use and why. I am looking for several things:

1) Easy to place new things on the server to stream So not "run foo.sh to squelch the gizmo, than change permissions on the whatchamacallit to flurb the noodles", then manually edit bar.conf to list all the new files on the server, but don't forget the semicolon on line 98792345, otherwise people will get an error 900 'noodles misaligned'. Non-Linux people will have to be able to place things on the server.

2) Flexible It shouldn't care about bitrates, hertz, pixels, fps, the hole in the ozone layer and whatnot.

3) Secure Speaks for itself

4) Careful with bandwidth Speaks for itself

5) Scalable Be able to stream 10, 100 or 1000 files (not simultaneously) and still be easy to maintain.

I'm very curious to hear your thoughts on this matter.

Thanks in advance for your ideas,

Joop
