Xmoov and Lighttpd Streaming with Ripe Player
September 15th, 2008
Dear Visitors,
Finally we have added the new feature of Xmoov streaming and lighttpd streaming with Hitasoft’s Ripe FLV Player 1.0.
Why PHP Streaming?
You can ’stream’ FLVs or you can use ‘progressive download’. Not many of us use ’streaming’ because you need a streaming media server software for this, like Macromedia Flash Communication Server or Flash Media Server, and this has a considerable cost.
You have two obvious advantages with streaming: you can seek to an arbitrary time in the video (still you land on a key frame, I think) and the file is not cached (and eats your bandwidth every time, but I can see how this is considered an advantage).
All Flash Media Servers are not open source and its need more time for installation. Now it’s possible to stream a FLV using a simple PHP script and FLVMDI injected data.
The Most Popular Php streaming:
• Xmoov Php Streaming
• Lighttpd Php Streaming
These new streaming methods are available as add-ons with Ripe Web FLV Player 1.0.
Still what are you waiting for??? Start migrating your website from Progressive download to php streaming and save your videos being cached….
