Streaming

3rd to 7th december 2007

“Streaming” is the transmission via Internet of real time audio and/or video. This technology enables anyone who wishes to transmit his/her own A/V content and offers a real alternative to A/V TV programmes. If you have something to say, there is no excuse not to be heard.

The workshop deals with basic technologies and techniques for streaming with free software. No license is required and a simple household computer is all that is necessary.
