LEADTOOLS Video Streaming ModuleAdd-on Module to LEADTOOLS Multimedia SDK

The LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module is perfect for developers who need to stream video or audio across the Internet or via Intranets. This new SDK module offers an unsurpassed multimedia experience at a toolkit level while at the same time reducing bandwidth requirements by taking advantage of LEAD´s video and audio codecs. With LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module you can stream multimedia files using a standard IIS web server or with Microsoft Media server using LEAD's DMO Encoders. This powerful SDK is comprised of the LEADTOOLS Multimedia toolkit and the LEAD H.264 Professional video codec (Encoder - DirectShow and DMO). The purpose of this bundle is to provide you with all the tools you need to provide streaming multimedia content via the web.

Developers can also use the Video Streaming Module to create a variety of Client/Server applications using several different configurations. For example, applications can be created where you have a single server sending audio/video to multiple clients, i.e. multicast or web cast for Web broadcasting. Additionally, security/surveillance applications can be created where you have multiple capture points sending video to a single source.

For information on streaming MPEG-2 transport video through UDP ports, see the MPEG-2 Transport module product page.

Key Features

Streaming for Video Conferencing

Create professional client/server video conference applications using the following comprehensive set of specialized audio and video components included with LEADTOOLS Video Streaming Module:

  • LEAD Network Multiplexer Filter The Network Multiplexer filter multiplexes media in preparation to send it over a TCP/IP network. This filter theoretically accepts any DirectShow media type.
  • LEAD Network Sink Filter The Network Sink filter is responsible for sending multiplexed media, output by the LEAD Network Multiplexer, over a TCP/IP network.
  • LEAD Network Source Filter LEAD Network Source Filter receives stream data, sent by the LEAD Network Sink Filter, on a TCP/IP network. It serves as a file reader filter in a DirectShow filter graph.
  • LEAD Network Demultiplexer Filter The Network Demultiplexer filter is responsible for splitting multiplexed media, output from the LEAD Network Source. It serves as a splitter filter in a DirectShow filter graph.
