VideoLan

VideLAN Client (VLC) is a highly portable multimedia player which supports a HUGE number of audio and video formats, DVDs, VCDs, various streaming protocols and features. It allows multimedia files to be played over a network so that you can store your files on a central file server and pipe the multimedia to network connected players. See http://www.videolan.org/vlc/features.html for complete details. Not only is VLC a player, it is also a server capable of streaming in unicast or multicast in IPv4 or IPv6 on high-bandwidth networks. It is available for:
1) *NIXs such as Linux, Net/Free/OpenBSD, Solaris, MacOSX
2) Other OS's such as QNX, Windows, PocketPC, Zaurus, and BeOS

Documentation can be found at http://www.videolan.org/doc/ and covers: The VLC Play HowTo, the VLC Streaming HowTo, The VLS user guide and the VideoLAN FAQ
