2 Setting Up Your QuickTime

Streaming Server

This chapter is designed to help you quickly get your

QuickTime Streaming Server up and running.

The instructions in this chapter assume that you have already installed and performed

a basic setup of Mac OS X Server version 10.4. For instructions on setting up Mac OS X

Server, see Mac OS X Server Getting Started for Version 10.4 or Later (included on a

Mac OS X Server installation disc and downloadable at www.apple.com/server/

documentation/.

Hardware and Software Requirements for

QuickTime Streaming

QuickTime Streaming Server requirements are provided in the getting started guide.

Viewer Computer Requirements

Any computer with QuickTime 4 or later installed can view media streamed by the

streaming server. For best results, Apple recommends QuickTime 7 or later.

QuickTime 6 and a broadband Internet connection are required to take advantage of

Instant-On using QuickTime Streaming Server 4.1 or later.

Any ISO-compliant MPEG-4 player can view MPEG-4 files and any 3GP-compliant

devices can view .3GP files. Streaming MP3 playlists can be listened to using iTunes or

other compatible streaming MP3 player such as WinAmp.

You can download QuickTime Player software from the QuickTime website:

Live Broadcasting Requirements

If you want to broadcast live content, you can use QuickTime Broadcaster, which is

included and installed with Mac OS X Server. For setup and other information, see the

Apple QuickTime Broadcaster webpage (www.apple.com/quicktime/products/

broadcaster/) and QuickTime Broadcaster online help.
