LEADTOOLS Streaming Module allows developers to create a variety of client/server applications using several different configurations with options for different encryption methods, compression and more. For example, applications can be created where you have a single server sending audio/video to multiple clients, i.e. multicast or web cast for Web broadcasting. Additionally, security/surveillance applications can be created where you have multiple capture points sending video to a single source.
For information on streaming MPEG-2 transport video through UDP ports, see the LEADTOOLS MPEG-2 Transport Module.
