In my application, I will have a dedicated machine based on Linux and clients (mostly windows OS based) are connected to this server. Each connected client has a video in a certain format and they want to play their video on the dedicated linux machine. My idea is to stream the video from the client to dedicated linux machine like regular streaming and play it there using a player. I immediately start thinking about having a vlc player on the linux machine and play the incoming stream with that. Could anyone please tell me if there is anything wrong with this idea? And also can you propose me some players like vlc? Perhaps there is another preferred player than vlc. Thanks a lot.
