Want to stream content from one computer to many computers on a LAN

Hi Everyone,

I want to stream content over a LAN. One computer will act as the "content host" and one or more computers will act as "content clients".

Is there any software that can stream content from one computer to several computers. My network contains DHCP addresses, and it is comprised of Windows 7 x64 Professional Computers.

Ideally the "content streaming" solution will be compatible with Multiple Operating Systems.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Davo

Since you haven't had any replies I will throw this out there. It might be worth trying.

VLC can play content that has not finished downloading so it may do all you need by just sharing the folder on the source machine and then opening it with VLC on the player.
