Hi All

Must be a year or so ago I posted looking for some advice on media streamin=
g software that had a some specific requirements, mainly that it would tran=
scode media on the fly to an MPEG2 stream so the dlna enabled TV could disp=
lay the stream, I did get some good advice at the time but ultimately nothi=
ng quite fitted the bill.

That was until someone mentioned serviio to me, so I looked in ports and su=
re it enough it is there (/usr/ports/net/serviio) it works great happily my=
 TV will now play an MKV file and pretty much anything else I have thrown a=
t it. So if you are looking for something that will work on a headless serv=
er to allow you stream media .. I would check this one out.

Regards

Graeme
