I was just looking for a way to stream some files from my computer when I came across the DIVX Web Player. This piece of software is being used all across the internet to stream .divx files. It is mainly used on their site stage6.divx.com where users can upload their own videos for the world to see. If videographers do not want to upload their files to stage6, divx has nicely given a code generator to have those files streamed from your website/ftp server.
When I was playing around with this, I thought I might try to stream an avi file with it. It worked perfectly on my ftp server. I was, however, unable to make it work with just a normal file path.
It does not work with wmv files, although those stream anyways.
I am not sure if the files that work with it are only avis encoded with DivX or Xvid, but any comments would be helpful.
