Hi all,
I am having a problem with streaming. I am trying to streaming from one location to another, I am experiencing heavy packet loss, the connection seems to be fine. I want to know is there any software or player out there allow me to download the streaming content while I watching it. Just like I pause for a minutes on the client side after streaming started, so after 1 minutes I click play so I can have smoother quality of the video.

Please Help! THANKS!

What technology are you using presently?

I use windows media services on windows 2003 server as the media server (clients connect to) and windows media encoder to capture the video from an external source e.g. TV

It is a simple operation to complete and you can then change the buffer size so the video streams better.

Start Windows media encoder and setup your live stream and start encoder. Add a publishing point in windows media services to conncet to the windows media encoder. Run windows media player and connect to the publishing point e.g. mms://server:port_no

If your server is 2003 standard edition then you can only use a unicast stream. 2003 advanced edition can be configured to use a multicast stream if you have many clients watching the stream.
