Hello, I am a fan of videostreaminig from the server to the thin clients. In Gutsy/Hardy I used the script Ltsp-Plugin (sudo ltsp-build-client --kiosk --base /opt/ltsp-kiosk/) and used vlc in place of "firefox" for streaming. It worked fine, so my students could listen to the videos by headphones. (But also the students used the "normal" Edubuntu-Client-Mode" to write letter, play games ....)
Now I did the same with IntrepidRC I tried ltsp-localapss with firefox, flashplugin-nonfree and vlc and mozilla-plugin-vlc. Wonderful I was able to see videos from web supported by the vlcplayer 0.9.4 (example: Mediathek of zdf.de) working local in the memory of client. But later I tried to send a vlc stream from my server to my client (enough memory 512 MB) with http://192.168.0.254:8080 Only for a second I could see the received stream on my client, also sound, but after the second it crashed with the message (....BadAlloc Insufficient resources for the operation X Error of failed request....Major opcode of failed request: 140 XVideo) The stream was ok, I received it with a WinMachine. Also I examined the free local memory of the client: > 200MB free ... So I created a kiosk mode, installed vlc in place of firefox, but the same problem, the same messages. Could someone help me?
