Post subject: | Watch Streaming Video Using Video Module |
add a section to your httpd.conf file: (/etc/apache/httpd.conf): Alias /movies /myth/video/ <Directory /myth/video> Options Indexes MultiViews AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> after restarting apache (apachectl restart) you can browse your video directory: http://ip.address.of.myth.box/movies/ big deal eh? Well, my brother has a bigger hard drive than me with a bunch of stuff I want to watch... I guess there are several ways to go about getting that content, but this is the way I did it: Create a new file type in setup for the video module: "lst" Set a unique player command for this file type: "/usr/local/bin/mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo -xv -playlist %s" now on my box in the /myth/video/ folder I can put a text file ending in .lst for example: Clog.Dancing.lst the contents of the file: http://ip.of.other.box/movies/Clog.Dancing.1.avi http://ip.of.other.box/movies/Clog.Dancing.2.avi you may have to set .lst files to be visible in the video manager. But after that you can treat them as you would any other movie file (getting movie info from imdb, etc.), except that when watching they stream from the other box. |
