About This Guide
•
H.264 streaming support:
QTSS 5.5 supports streaming of live and on-demand
content encoded with the new H.264 video codec, which is included with
QuickTime 7.
•
QTSS Publisher:
Included with Mac OS X Server v10.4 is the next generation of
Apple’s content management software, QTSS Publisher. This version includes a
number of enhancements making it even easier to use and automate:
•
User interface:
QTSS Publisher now sports a brand new user interface making it
even easier to manage your server-side media and prepare it for delivery over the
Internet or mobile networks. For more information, see Chapter 4, “Managing Your
Media With QTSS Publisher.”
•
Home directory support:
Non-admin users of the server can now log in to QTSS
Publisher and upload movies to their home directory for streaming. This allows
server administrators to give users permission to upload media to the server
without having to give them admin privileges as well as the ability to put quotas
on disk space usage.
•
AppleScript support:
Extend the functionality of QTSS Publisher as well as
automate many of the tasks using AppleScript. Examples include, batch processing
of media, automated publishing of playlists, automated creation of webpages, and
much more.
Other features of QTSS include:
•
Native 3GPP:
Stream industry-standard 3GPP files to any compliant 3GPP player
device.
•
Native MPEG-4 streaming:
Stream ISO-compliant, hinted MPEG-4 files to any ISO-
compliant MPEG-4 player, or device.
•
MP3 audio streaming:
Create your own Internet radio station. You can serve
standard MP3 files using Icecast-compatible protocols over HTTP. Build a playlist of
MP3 files and serve them to MP3 clients such as iTunes, SoundJam, and WinAmp for
a simulated live experience.
•
Skip protection:
Apple skip-protection technology—a collection of quality-of-
service features—takes advantage of excess available bandwidth to buffer ahead
data locally to the client.
•
Instant-On:
Viewers with a broadband connection watching a streaming video with
QuickTime 6 and later will benefit from Instant-On, an advance that provides
enhanced overbuffering of data, resulting in dramatically reduced buffer time. With
Instant-On, broadband users can also “scrub” forward and back with the time slider
through an on-demand media stream and have playback updated instantly.
•
Authentication:
Two types of authentication, digest and basic, let you control access
to protected media.
