NymphCast
NymphCast is a server-client project that allows for video and audio to be streamed over the network.
Dependencies
To build NymphCast, one needs the following dependencies in addition to a C++ toolchain with C++17 support.
Server
Client
- NymphRPC
- LibPOCO
Building
Run the Makefile in the client and server folders, which should output a binary into the newly created bin/ folder.
Running
The server binary can be started as-is, and will listen on all network interfaces for incoming connections.
The client binary has to be provided with the filename of a media file that should be sent to the remote server.
Limitations
- The client is hard-coded to use the local loopback connection.
- The client can only play one file before exiting.
- The server is assumed to have 100 MB heap space free for caching.
Status
This is alpha-level code. It's only guaranteed to have lots of unresolved issues. Feel free to submit tickets for any issues you have found.
