How to get started implementing a video streaming server in c/c++?

Question

In my project I need a dedicated server that dispatches the streams over to multiple clients.

More specificly, I've a callback function that gets called to gather the stream data, but no idea how to stream it over to other applications.

What's the best way to get started on this ?

Answer 1

I think you should check communication through network sockets.

There is no network concept in C++, so you have to rely on your system API or libraries ( as boost.asio for instance )
