“VLC, without a doubt, is the best media player around. Not only
is it able to play almost any file format, it is also able to
stream audio/video from the Web and transcode on the fly.VLC-share
is a web implementation of VLC streaming and transcoding that
allows you to stream (and transcode) your videos to your WII Media
Center (WIIMC) or Android phone. Just think of airplay for Android
and you get VLC-Shares.“In this tutorial, we will show you how to get VLC-shares up and
running in your Ubuntu machine. VLC-shares is available for Windows
as well and the installation and configuration instruction is
pretty easy and straightforward, so we will not touch on that.”
