The LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module is perfect for developers who need to serve videos on demand, offering an unsurpassed multimedia experience while at the same time reducing bandwidth requirements. Some of the many things you can do include:
Serve multimedia files using a standard IIS web server or using the Microsoft Media Server
Bypass the Windows Media Encoder and send compressed data straight to the Windows Media Server
Create IIS Smooth Streaming files and push them straight to a IIS Media Services server
It is also possible to create custom video conferencing applications and utilities. The LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module can be used to create Client Server applications such as:
Security Server / WebCast, where a single server is sending to multiple clients.
Video Conferencing, where each computer participating in the conference is both a client and a server.
Live Presentations over the Web, where screen activity on a server is captured and sent to one or more clients.
The LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module adds onto the LEADTOOLS Multimedia SDK and includes a fully enabled development license for the following components:
You can develop and perform testing with the development only editions of the components, codecs and filters contained in this product. In the case of the codecs, a LEAD Encoder, and in the case of the filters and components, a licensing dialog will appear from time to time while the program is running. The development-only editions do not expire but may not be used in a production environment under your license.
In order to deploy the Video Streaming Module specialized components, you must sign a duplication and distribution license agreement and return it to LEAD. You will be provided with unlock instructions to the release versions of any of these filters or codecs which you wish to license when you have signed the appropriate duplication and distribution license. These release editions will not display a licensing dialog box or LEAD text on the video stream. If you have any questions concerning licensing the codecs/filters, you can contact LEAD licensing at licensing@leadtools.com
