4 GMythStream (GMS) is a transcoder server developed in python. It makes live
5 transcode of any input video and streams it via HTTP. The media player opens
6 an HTTP uri informing the input video location and the desired muxer/video/audio
7 formats. The GMS server parses this url and starts to transcode the input video
8 using one of the transcode plugins: gmencoder or mencoder. The transcoder output
9 is sent to the media player via the HTTP connection.
11 The client can also request transcode progress and the files already transcoded
12 and stored in the server. GMS is currently hardly used as a live transcoder for
13 mythtv content (recorded videos and livetv).
15 GMS is free software, licensed under the GNU GPL.
