Foil 40 Video on Demand/TANGO Integration

From Use of Tango in Multidisciplinary Interactions MAPINT97 Workshop -- 16-18 June 97. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Marek Podgorny *
Master-slave video client architecture
  • Master client for the teacher
    • has all capabilities of the stand-alone video client, including random access capability
    • uses unicast for server access
    • forwards video streams to a multicast address
  • Slave client for students/general audience
    • start/stop capability only
    • session control via TANGO session manager (more secure than standard MBONE)
No need for separate on-demand and broadcast video servers
