FreeCast 20060515 brings new major features like NAT traversal and embedded Ogg Vorbis encoder.

After a busy winter, the FreeCast team is proud to publish this new major release 200605015



FreeCast is an open source peer-to-peer streaming solution based on Ogg encoding format. Audio (Ogg/Vorbis) or video (Ogg/Theora) streaming content are thus allowed.



FreeCast is now two years old, and the experience we gained through its development and use led us to a deep rewriting of the protocol since the transport layer was switched from TCP to UDP. We also added the long-awaited NAT traversal: FreeCast networks won't be stopped anymore by misconfigured NATs.



FreeCast Manager has been thoroughly reviewed by our user community, and we added some new features, such as the ability of broadcasting a playlist/list of files thanks to an integrated Ogg Vorbis encoder. To ease the use of FreeCast Mananager, one simple dialog allows you to setup your broadcast. With FreeCast's Click & Broadcast, broadcasting your own content has never been so easy.
