Hi folks,
Hope this is in the right forum.
I have a query about streaming media formats. I would like to code a piece of software capable of playing back streaming media. However, the thing is - which format do I use? Which video format is best for low-bitrate streaming video? Keeping in mind the fact that the player itself will be third-party, so RealMedia is out of the question.
What other options do I have? Sorry if this question is slightly retarded, but I've not dealt much with streaming in the past (I am fully up to speed with MPEG4 encoding, however).
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Paul
