RealSystem Server
RealSystem Server is a
client-server based system which allows web sites to serve compressed
pre-recorded and live audio and video media to computers with a
RealPlayer installed.
The RealPlayer continuously decompresses the media streams and then
plays them in real time, on demand. Unique flow control technology allows
computer users with sound cards to listen to whole clips, or just sections,
when they want, as often as they want.
|
NOTE:
Streaming live audio and video requires a significant
portion of Virtual Server resources. A dedicated server is more
suitable for live audio and video streaming.
|
RealNetworks offers free licenses
for both the Basic Server and Basic Server G2 products. However,
this is wholly dependent upon RealNetworks and is subject to change.
