helps you to create your own movies, multimedia slide-shows and
animation sequences and to record audio. It can then take these media
files from your computer and encode them into streaming media clips.
These ‘encoded’ streaming media clips can then be published on our
streaming server by Video Caster, so that they are ready to be viewed by
your friends and family, over the Internet.
