Distributing content

As part of setting up an encoding session, you must specify how you plan to distribute the content. You have several options for distributing content:

To broadcast content, you must specify the port through which the content streams. The Windows Media server or players can then connect to the content through the port, using HTTP. If the connection is over the Internet, the URL for connecting is http://IPaddress:portnumber. If the connection is over a local area network (LAN), the URL for connecting is http://encodercomputername:portnumber.
