Streaming

Streaming media is a method of making audio, video clips and other multimedia available in real- time.

The term streaming refers to the technique it is based on. Previously an entire file had to be downloaded before it could be played, whereas the use of streaming means the end user can almost immediately begin to watch or listen to the content of a requested file. The data in the file is broken down into small packets that are sent in a continuous flow, a stream, to the end user. It is then possible to begin viewing the file while the rest of the packets are transferred.

Applications

The applications which can be built on top of the streaming services can be classified into on demand, and live information delivery applications. Examples of the first category are music and video clips, news on demand as well as on demand instruction material. Live delivery of radio and television are examples of live information delivery. The following video and music codec is supported:

MPEG-4 Simple Visual Profile Level 0

H.263 Profile 0 Level 10

H.263 Profile 3 Level 10 (decode only)
