more video play
11pm, kinda tired from work and all. what better to do than play with my video gears. Today I hooked up my VLC media player to the trusty Canopus RaptorDV. Can you say "streaming video"? Ha ha, it was so funny. Obviously DV format is too large to stream over, so I tested out a few different compressions. Eventually I settled with mpg, decent quality. It was only a 384kps stream but there was this 3 second delay. It’s so funny, you wave your hand in front of the camera and it will appear on my client machine 3 seconds later. XD You have to be in the room to see it. Anyway…I’m going to play with some mp3 streaming now. (yup it supports that too, so literally you have a mini tele/radio station on your hand.)
