We have Windows 2008 R2 Servers and we want to stream content (avi, wmv, mpeg etc) to Windows/Mac OS X/iOS etc devices. The visitor must be able to select the file (s)he want to view withing the library. We tried to accomplish this using:

  • VLC
  • Windows Media Service (WMS)
  • Mediaportal

    • VLC: We didnt find a solution to publish the content in a library
    • WMS: only supports WMV/WMA, needs MediaPlayer
    • MediaPortal: it is not supported on W2k8R2 Server

Any suggestions?
