BTW : just a little off topic... Do you have any web docs entry points to share about streaming QT/MP4 contents in a "one to many" sheme, runnable in IPV4, without having to send a different stream to each conected user, something like binding the IPV6 broadcast address witch could work in IPV4 mode ?... IPV6 is so great, as dream ;)
It's a rare day when I can lend a hand to Pierre on Internet stuff, but maybe this will help:
In some limited testing here I've had surprisingly good results playing SMIL documents in player objects. What impresses me most is that you can use media stored on any normal Web server: when playing a media file from a Web server directly QT insists on downloading the file before running it, but the same file wrapped in a SMIL document triggers a streaming behavior from QT, such that the media starts playing as soon as even a small amount of it has been buffered. QT's handling of media referenced within SMIL documents appears to be much more efficient than even using the quick-start option.
So conceivably, if the goal is to send different media to different clients, one could write a Perl or Rev CGI to generate the SMIL on the fly, referencing different media as needed.
