Stream Your Video and Music Anywhere!

Set up a personal media server, it's easy, and you'll have access to your favorite tunes and movies no matter where you go!
If you keep your entire media library on your home PC enjoying your favorite songs and videos when you're traveling (or even just in the office!) can be a difficult proposition. Do bring your PC? Dump everything on a portable hard drive? Maybe *gasp* burn out dozens of DVD/CDs of everything? We've got a better idea: how about to setting up a personal media server that you can access remotely over the Internet? It's straightforward process that requires less than 10 minutes to setup.
If you want to serve up video, music, and photos our favorite tool is Orb. You'll need a PC to run it, but you can stream to just about anything, even cell phones! If you just interested in streaming out music, check out Simplify Media. It works on Mac and Linux boxes along with Windows PCs.
With both applications you'll want some sort of broadband connection. Video will be better served with a larger upload capacity than either photos or music but even with 700k DSL upload video watching is perfectly acceptable.

Video. Was cool about or was it actually re samples and he's in a particular cellphone the next that we samples the video in new formats you can play and that's. Yeah and the great thing is. You know its platform agnostic of in the fact that you need to run it often PC that has all the critics have been doing that DivX movies you want to make sure you have to. DivX codec installed to do any such -- exploring my enemy tree dead except its export credits and they'll. Quick rule of thumb is if it will play in windows media players generally you have the -- installed and it's written yeah. So. Let's start with the simple setup and this cool thing about or this is completely free -- you really need to do after you download that makes their money. I don't know I'm afraid to ask get a MI and I like the answer yet what is it that's what these we've -- we should call about an ass because one of these we've seen especially. There was a whole category of online music storage or media storage site you know upload your music Georgia and servers of the sky and access them from anywhere lot of those actually we're -- business. We'll -- cool thing is or does not actually hosting and if you content what it is doing. Is actually taking that content. And basically pairing up your PC with -- client device -- another it does the address translation from one point two. After that's done it doesn't have to do anything else that so what we take a quick shot of my screen here. Is you can see it's very quick steps you click next. Andy kind of explain what's happening. Basically punch holes here firewalls. To it so you want to create a login and password and if you already have one you can not bypass the step entirely and I will use -- So as -- before you do need PC idea -- running XP or Vista. Had no real issues with the latest version of or. And the cool thing is it actually replicates many of the functions you find. And windows. Media connect so. PS3 Xbox 316 set top box that normally connects to windows machine. Is. Is can be served by the software turns over cable modem runs over DSL modem is -- going to run better over big fat cable because because your upload pipe going DSL tends to be very near. Yes so I have DSL and home and I get three megabit down before -- get about 768. K up. Right now I also picked up capable tomorrow's debate is an excuse me at least I think it may give it -- Big in the half. Giving you basically have twice the capacity with a lot more now this is only important if you're punching through big bad media. Even if you -- kind of compress it down for small but -- an iPhone video what was take more. Better with an audio and you'll notice it in the video -- to be a little more lucky and you'll see little artifact being does that mean it's on watchable. But the quality he might be a little less than you might expect on drug benefit. "
" If you actually want the pure experience of your video files on compressed are without any possibility of any kind of delay. You should physically download your files from your home server to wherever you are. There's four gigabyte file that's probably going to be a prohibitive. Kind of download to wait for yet and it's really simple matter setting up so to -- to my screen here and -- to connect to configuration file as you can see. So on a Vanilla and yes we all need to do is point the application to whatever folder or your browser -- By default it uses your might documents so get any personal items things that you don't want people to see. You might want to remove them or just move those photos out because I had a couple of things that shows like books don't want people to see that one. So. What's at -- you just click okay and start structure those things you have to understand is divorced if you have the longer it takes to crunch. I have a library -- you know 5000 plus. -- MP threes and they're all relatively like. Hi at least 256. So it takes a love for the application -- not responding. Right away you are good don't want your done this is what to end up with you log in through the -- website it -- or my cat dot war dot com. And this -- what your page looks like now this page is customizable it's based on Ajax so you can kind of two got whether. It's not when there if you don't want anything you can just go up to the upper right corner. Saying you can pick the X or when it and it it you move to edit button and then you can suggest for example the zip code here it is. Incorrect two. Another one that used to -- that I don't do that anymore so don't mind me. Like anyone would want it now feature box. I have Camilla is photo here on the left and I have it on random. One thing one and us you know assist pictures on the side. So that's because the original photo was shot that way and so if you want it right so that you want a mixture that you just that all in here a photo library before you. Structuring it that's pretty cool. Now I have my audio so if I wanted to I can include put any of the formats that are playable through windows media put these are all done in. WMD. In a lossless codec or not W via windows media lossless audio codec. And the cool thing is to extremes it beautifully. Now like you said it will do it will crunch it down and in this case because it's a windows platform it's playing through. The Windows Media Player rated that I conflict or anything else you want they can -- is six file. Interestingly enough if you use a Mac you left in plain and embedded. When does not windows but. Web browser. Client. So whether you're on windows. Windows or Mac OS-X platform it's great talks like that. Finally I have a certain you streaming from your homer yeah this that this is from my home that's roughly four okay miles away. And I have -- on my cable modem connection and this is basically everything I set up on my home PC and the brilliant thing is I can leave this up running I can go somewhere so you -- go to New York. Song as they can access the web accounts I can access."
" And one final cool feature about or is that it supports eight TV tuners so if you have a TV tuner in that post PC that you have the or suffer installed on you can actually stream out television that you had been either watching. In your local owners so whether it's cable or over the air you can watch stations. Over the web which is kind of cool and in many ways it's almost like this OSX a lot like a slingbox you can take that content from a remote location. And bring it to where you -- specific."
" Let's take a moment to thank what are the sponsors of today's episode godaddy.com. If you want to make an impact on mine goes -- dot com has what you need starting at less than five dollars a month web hosting from GoDaddy includes 99 point 9% up time 24 sevenths support and free.

And it was a favor here at system. It's are these the Internet take -- dot com and use that code SYS one when you deal."
" Earlier this year we talked about or on tech killer sister program something really funny happened we had about four -- emails all talking about the single service called simplify media simplify media dot com is the website. If anything it's actually even easier to set up and or is one of the reasons well. It's music specific all it does his audio files to sports MP3 ACW mate and Apple lossless including songs that you've paid for and legally -- from the iTunes store. How could he leaves it at the other end they download the client insult catalogue in either you log in as yourself that you you access to your service at home. Or you can invite your friends and basically share your media with up thirty your friends now that you said that it supported the the locked version of iTunes music that you buy does that hold true for the windows right. Here are protected Debian -- files Ogg Vorbis files and FLAC files more work. Yeah. So but it opening that's still a pretty good swath of I mean most Michaels and -- Yeah most people have and -- Casey's if you in its candidacy if they in the iTunes is really the most popular story out there but here and blocked if you -- files if you bought them from other servers are not gonna work with this. He likes it also support -- platelets you can share those stone knives. Yes that's basically you in you invite different -- media list and you can -- people can like basically looks through your library of files you can look through their lockers files is there a limit to the number of people that can. Log on and stream that music most in need relatives of purposes most people's home connections are gonna be limited basically their their computer power less so but her actual upload speed on there. Internet connection is going to be -- to stream -- about two people simultaneously and not always but in most cases. One thing it it is free. They do you have an iPod touch or iPhone client and that's available for three dollars 99 cents and -- and it's actually it works shockingly well I was actually have streaming -- stuff and Apple also from a server at home. -- in my my desktop at home and remember you have to leave the machine. With the music on it has to be up point 47 and has been connected the Internet point 47 if you want to walk onto her basically stream files from a which you know if you think about if you have a very power efficient. Desktop or laptop. Running and you connected to UPS and I think you're pretty much say -- you know people run home servers all the time so what's going on -- No exit one other thing you do this you actually access it through front row who would now there's this handy though that's front row. Straightening overs that you can use or for that yet it's."
" We'll take a moment now for Netflix sponsored pig of the week this week RD media of choice is Doctor Who. This time traveling side by epic is the longest running side by series in the world. Wrapped around the eccentric time -- the Doctor Who Obama this companions travel through time and space and British police box righting wrongs and solving mysteries. A -- of science fiction and quirky British sensibilities you have to get to know doctor soon. -- giving you know the doctor don't forget to check out the other 90000 titles Netflix has to offer including work quite sure don't largest selection of Blu-ray titles in the universe. You're bound find anytime you're looking for plus with forty -- almost all deliveries happen in a single business day shipping both ways. -- Plans start at four dollars 99 cents -- the system New -- you can get a free trial by signing up today at W every Debian dot netflix.com slash system."
" Not just so people understand what we are doing with these applications is actually streaming content and actually downloading and -- can't go around and starts -- Users with the birds over the copy shop sort of be chemical can do is make it more clear example let's say. I'm in Las Vegas I really wish they had some operation ivy songs I have in my home my server I want to download you're not gonna download them. You're you're not gonna download through or you're not gonna download them through. You know simplify simplify media. You can stream them right to my to my area connection myself on but I can't download to my computer and transfer them over. For -- like that it would actually needed FTP server. Or forcibly really that simple each of us each two. NS service like India and -- And herself laundry list of other options that vote -- put via. In the shows for this but essentially is given the dynamic IP at home that your IP address can change any time publisher of a static IP it has seniors seniors here contract -- So what that dynamic -- server does is it basically tracks what your home IP address is. And you can type in did -- give you via my servers dot com slash you know music. And automatically log in to take a look at like your music files. Well didn't he has server allows you to access your servers at home no matter what that I IP address through or essentially the mapping point of the Internet use to your home. -- Did to suffer itself doesn't need to have a static IP on grandparent you can get around it would be -- get a static IP if you don't. No probably -- a dynamic in a service like India -- And it becomes a lot more flexible too because with or in I don't have to worry about it a lot of the back and only notice as soon as they turn it on. The field service that you know connects. The client page with the actual server that it set up. For any connection to in my media is accessible and that's all I care about right you could set up traditional thing to do you set up FTP server she can do from home -- you have servers on the Internet you can upload your files there. Simply that you do get a windows machine at home to running the stuff off of these HMS the HTTP file server. You download a small executable you double click on it. It runs you're good to go you can basically set up accounts so that people have to you have login and password to have access your files which is a good thing. -- tiger running the server from home one of the nice things about. Or oversimplified media is they're very very secure. However any time you host your own server at home you have to be very very cautious that you keep everything up to date that you don't get hacked this. Into the to that place."
" Not only had been making sure that if you have any -- is if you have -- brown and black out or you have. You know some and actually turns it off. You have a method or way of getting that back up and running we either either it's a spouse or some sort of remote access software or you know just some believe having your PC to turn on as soon as the power comes back on -- automatically restart yes. Because you know there many times but I forgot this which sent by us. And with the machine goes down it doesn't herself back on and it's very important especially some crucial and yet I don't think you can do anything done mission critical with these applications. But just say oh my gosh I need my music where is it can access it. And one of those people yet you know double -- other things of that that it's pretty it's. Pretty straightforward the only thing again I think would be that would -- factored these -- connection that is your ability to upload. From your machine up to the Internet cloud."
" Because most people at home have a very tiny upload speed compared to download speeds cable -- better than DSL but chances are nothing's gonna approach. Your office server and for the leaving just at the lightbulb go on about your head. I don't think about hosting stuff for the office -- really good friends -- team manager unless you want to get beaten into with a stick and quite possibly. Fire especially if you business relies on on that network being as on congested as possible. We should put out this is not part two or media jukebox series -- going to be coming up in the next couple weeks yes along with you know visual. The light -- be led to the now legendary light -- like my little and visual.
