I already have FreeBSD installed. Just wondering if there is a streaming server for it. Hardly can believe that dedicated download (by opening the remote file in a media player) will be more efficient that a streaming server that takes care of bandwidth throttle and average processing time on (http) requests. I want to provide some animated presentations with voice over that have been recorded earlier. > fortunately we have /usr/ports/www/youtube_dl :) Eh, that sound familiar l-) thanks for sharing, Jos Chrispijn
