How to stream Audio and Video over Home Network-Video Lan (VLC)


Imagine your own TV channel at home or in the office.VLC , one of the most popular free media players , can also stream your movies and music to other computers on your wired or wireless network.

The interface is simple and straight forward , with a helpful wizard. Just click on ‘Media|Streaming’ and choose the media files you want to stream.Then run VLC player on the target computer as well , and open the stream over the network using the IP address of the streaming server.

This saves a tremendous amount of hard drive space, as media files are stored centrally and don’t need to be duplicated across computers .Even an old computer with 512 MB RAM is enough for such a server .You can also stream multiple audio/video files simultaneously so that users over the network can choose what they want to play.
