:-) ive always wondered what guys mean by putting what I've put ion the header.... anyway, onto my question: Terrestrial TV broadcasting relies on the TV station transmitting the signal over a given radius and anyone with a reciever recieving. I would want to believe that the quality of the signal is not dependent on how many people are tuned in (right?) Using the same reasoning, is it possible to "broadcast" video using wifi, such that anyone with wifi reception capability can get the transmission crystal clear..... I ask this because i was reading some other thread where someone is talking about signal quality, bandwidth and number of concurrent streams... -- Regards, Collins Areba. Strategic Operations.

so all the rules of WiFi should apply in this case. the medium is WiFi. video is just data On 8 September 2010 22:21, [ Brainiac ] <arebacollins@gmail.com> wrote:

Hahaaa... you are thinking of inverse streaming?? Please write that protocol and patent it before Apple does:-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

@Brainiac I believe you're referring to multicasting as opposed to unicasts. UBNT firmware supports multicast data. Have a look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_multicast

You can also set up a multicast video server with VLC...
