File types you can stream on IU's streaming servers
On Indiana University's streaming servers, you can stream the following file types:
-
Windows Media: You can stream Windows Media files
ending with the extensions
.wmv,.wma, or.asf. Streaming to Microsoft Silverlight players is supported as well.
- Flash: You can stream FLV, MPEG4 (H.264 video/AAC audio), and MP3 files from the Flash Streaming Server.
Note: UITS no longer supports the QuickTime and Real streaming servers. To stream audio and video files, you should instead use the Adobe Flash or Windows Media streaming servers; see Streaming audio and video over the web at IU. To convert QuickTime files to other formats, use Adobe Media Encoder, which is available in Adobe Creative Suite 5 (CS5 and CS5.5) from IUware. To convert Real files to other formats, use the RealPlayer Converter, and follow the RealPlayer Converter guide.
