Hi

I'm looking for a solution to send video to multiple recipients.
Already browsed:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/datagrams/broadcasting.html
But for me there is the possibility of using this. (Network problems)

Is ther any other solutions to Broadcasting video in java without
overloading the bandwidth.

thanks for the reply.

If you can not use multicast then you can not use multicast.

So you send to each client.

The only optimization I can think of is if you send to
1/N of the clients and then each of them forward to N
other clients.

But that may not be possible for network reasons as well.
