Hi Ricardo,
if you want to display video files stored as XWiki Attachments you don't
really need a streaming solution, do you ?
If what you want to be able to do is to display video stored in attachment
within wiki pages, the easiest thing to do is to embed a flash video player
or a quicktime, vlc, whatever plugin in the page, passing it the URL of your
file, you can do it quite easily. There's examples of this on some articles
@ http://blog.xwiki.com -> if that's what you meant I'll post an entry on
XWiki.org to explain how it works.
If not, well, someone else will have to come up with an answer :-)

Hi Ricardo,
I think you just need a streaming server installed somewhere... but
then I'm not an expert on this.
Thanks

Neither am I! By googling and searchmashing for a solution I arrived to
VLC. We extensively use this solution as a client, but never used it as
a server.
As I can read in its website "VLC is able to stream all that it can
read", so I guess that it can be possible to pass XWiki attachements'
URLs to VLC acting a as server and it will take care of them. My main
doubt now: how could I pass authentication data in the URL to VLC when
dealing with restricted access spots? My expectancies for the coming
summer are increasing quickly! :-)
Any insight will be mostly welcome!
By the way: they have 14 GSoC assigned this year! We have to catch up! :-)
Cheers,
Ricardo
