Q. The institution that I work in needs to allow its viewers to view an live event and I guess video streaming is the solution we are looking for. I have exposure to Windows but not much at linux. Is there any reliable way of video streaming using Windows and any tutorials on how to stream a video would be appreciated.
PS: I tried VLC but doesn't look like the solution we are looking for, some thing advance would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

A. Yes, infact I believe that Microsoft Windows has one of the best solutions for video streaming. It is called IIS Smooth Streaming and IIS Live Smooth Streaming and as I see you are broadcasting a live event, probably an input from a DV Camera.
If you have a Windows Vista / 7 PC and Microsoft Expression Encoder all you need to do is to download a web player (Silverlight) and doing some tweaks here and there and you will end up with a video streaming solution that is comparable with the industry. Expression Encoder Pro is available free of charge without the H264 codec and could be obtained from their site (doesn't show up easy) other wise its just below 200$ in price and is worth it.
I wrote an article on IIS Live Smooth Streaming, on my industrial training experience and hope it will be helpful to you: http://ziyan.mozeej.com/2011/11/iis-live-smooth-steaming-professional-way-of-streaming-videos.html
The article contains a video tutorial on how to do it. I use the same computer as the encoder, server and end user. You could use appropriate IPs and do it in a multiple computer environment.

Good luck!

Can I run Vindictus on linux through steam?
Q. Hello, I use ubuntu and since steam can run on linux i was wondering if i can play Vindictus through steam on my laptop.
A. No, looks like it uses HackSheild, which freaks out in a WINE envirment
Always check appbd.winehq.org in the future for these types of questions.
"What works
Installation. $ winetricks ie6 corefonts for 64 bit users, WINEARCH=win32 is necessary to install ie6. ie8 was tested, but didn't work.
What does not
Starting the game. It crashes on startup due to HackShield."

How can I play steam games on my Mac?
Q. I have Boot Camp with the steam games, but i want to know if i can somehow play them while running OS X. I have the newest version 10.5.7 if that helps anything. I have Parallels and Vmware Fusion but they suck at playing games. Please Help ( If you don't know what steam games are they are just normal PC games that are easier to keep up with.)
A. You probably want to look at CrossOver Games, a WINE-based system that allows you to play Windows games on Linux or Mac computers without purchasing a copy of Windows. COG is around $40.
See: http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxgames/
Another option would be to purchase and install a copy of Windows under Boot Camp, assuming you're running OS X 10.5 ("Leopard") or higher. You'd have to reboot your Mac into Windows. Downsides: You will have to re-partition your hard drive, making room for Windows, and of course, you also have to purchase a copy of Windows. Upsides: Since you're actually running Windows, any game you install/run should operate no differently than if you were playing it on a non-Mac Windows PC.
One more approach would be to try a virtual PC solution such as Parallels or VMWare Fusion. See the websites for these products to see what their capabilities are, and how likely they are to run your games.

With Parallels or VMWare Fusion, you'll need to purchase the application, plus a copy of Windows.
