Movie 13: Steve Bergen, Lesson Two of C++ (sblesson2modem.rm) this 10.5 minute movie #11 will appear tiny, so it is preferable to click here if on a modem... streams at 16 kilobits per second (file is 500K) click here if on a fast connection e.g. cable modem, DSL or intranet... streams at 100 kilobits per second (file is 1.4 meg) and see it within its own real player window! This particular video was done as a powerpoint presentation with a normal size window. It was enhanced with audio and then turned into a streaming video via a special powerpoint presentation tool from www.real.com. Some notes about video streaming .. Steve Bergen (bergen@nobles.edu) Using our real streamer producer, we can create a streaming file (rm) of one of the following types single rate has the advantage that it can moved to a web server for distribution sure stream has the advantage that it can incorporate several different adjustable rates into the one file older version for real player 5 (less commonly found these days) There are different Real Players out there, each capable of playing different types of streaming files. Check your computer type, how much RAM you have and what operating system you are running. Then head for www.real.com to download a free player! The G2 player can play surestream, but requires 32 meg of ram and system 8.1 at least; the G2 player prefers 64 meg of ram. The older real player (5.0) can play streaming files, but ONLY if they have been prepared with the OLDER format. Real Player 7 Plus requires at least system 8.1, power PC, 32 meg of RAM but prefers 8.5, 64 meg of ram, 233 mhz computer One other method for viewing some of the creations on our video streaming server is to load up real player and type in the following info rtsp://207.31.250.228:554/sr3.sm using the specific file at the end of the path. We are using these codes for file names: sr = single rate and ss = sure stream. Another option is to use this one line source code in your web page, as done in these samples: a href="http://207.31.250.228:8080/ramgen/sr3.rm" Mandolin Johny plays a verse of Don't Think Y2K Mark and Elisa talk a bit about the DLC
