Hey - here's something that is very interesting:

I’ve spent my spare time the last week creating a livecd that is useful
for broadcasting audio and video streams. I have got to my second
iteration of this cd. I have used catalyst from the Gentoo project to
create it. The livecd contains:
* Gnome 2.8 (some packages from 2.8.1 and some from 2.8.0)
* Openoffice Ximian edition
* Mozilla Firefox
* Icecast server
* Darwin Streaming Server
* acast
* Mpeg4ip
* Flumotion
* VLC Media Player
* Marlin audio editor
* Cantus Tag editor
* Easytag
* and more…
This cd therefore gives any machine with a sound card the ability to
stream Ogg/Vorbis or MP3 audio using acast. Also it gives any machine
with a v4l compatible card the ability to stream Mpeg4 video/audio to
say clients such as Quicktime Player. And with the excellent Flumotion
streaming server, it allows any machine with either a firewire port, a
tv card, a webcam to stream Ogg Theora/Vorbis video/audio. Also, there
is software for editing audio and tagging recordings and of course
OpenOffice allowing powerpoint presentations to be displayed to
projectors. For testing locally, the relevant streaming servers are
already running when the cd is started.
