Introduction

Using streaming relays, live streams are accessed (via cgi redirection) from local servers to create a statewide streaming network without impacting Internet bandwidth for each client connection. In addition, video on demand content is replicated from a central repository nightly.

In another current implementation, 15 channels including closed captioning are delivered via IP based television and video distribution system to a large campus community. Learn what’s happening with the expansion to 80 channels, and the move to H.264 with QuickTime 7, QuickTime Broadcaster 1.5, and Mac OS X Server 10.4.

Learn about a new Directory Service QuickTime Streaming Server plug-in. The QTSS plug-in allows administrators to access user and group account information provided by Directory Services information.
