How does your ASPNetVideo handle streaming?

For instance, I noticed that your Quicktime module preloads the clip while it's playing...but can it be set to stream instead?

Yes, ASPNetVideo does handle streaming, and all you have to do is point the VideoURL to a QuickTime stream. However, make sure that your web host supports this functionality. You might need a special hosting package to get it to go.

as you said the aspnetvideo handles streaming, this means i don't have to setup any media server. I just need my standard web server (like IIS) and your control.
Correct me if i am wrong.

Hi Vishnu

You have 2 options:

1) Use IIS to host your video.
No fancy hosting required. The video will use progressive streaming.
This approach works for all 3 players - Windows Media, Real and QuickTime
This is how almost all video is streamed on the internet.

2) Use a speacialist Streaming Video Server.
This fancy hosting adds some advanced features to video streaming.
It also allows you to braodcast live video feeds - but it costs money and the bandwidth usage can add up.

Just set the VideoURL property of your video player to the URL of your hosted video feed.

Hi,
I'm testing you control (mediaplayer version) to play a video hosted on my webspace. All is working fine while debugging fron VS2005, but I get an error trying to run the page from the host.
the whole site is hosted on a WindwsServer2003 server based supporting both .net Framework and Ajax.
Maybe The register of the control fail due to low permissions?

Thanks in advance.

done.
the problem was that the dll was in a local bin folder and not in the application bin folder.

Now it works fine.

Great Job !
Thanks.
Max.
