Streaming Defined

Streaming - “The transfer of video and audio material over a network (now esp. the Internet) as a continuous, real-time stream of data.”* Items play as they are downloaded – not after they are downloaded.

Streaming Server - A streaming server contains RTP and RTSP protocols that allow media to be sent to a client so that it can be played back immediately and without waiting for it to download completely first.

* From OED Online.

Technical Issues

Campus or the library needs a streaming server

Does the embed code work in all OPAC’s? Inclusion or exclusion of HTML in

bibliographic records Ezproxy linking needs work

Need some scripting work to include a working proxy string in the bibliographic record

Future Plans

Enlarging the streaming media collection

Purchase a streaming server or gain access to one
