Hi.

I want to broacast my screen, the problem is i've got very limited upload speed, if there are more than 2 clients screencast becomes absolutely awful.

But i've got a server with a broadband channel (100MB).

The question is: is there some screencast broadcasting software that runs on both win and linux and has multiplexer?

I thought about vnc, but i can't find any software able to work as multiplexer :(

A: 

Despite this question is not programming related, would VideoLAN player do the job? It can be found at vlc. This has the capability to stream the video across different computers, I saw this in a computer shop, the video I think it was 'Pirates of the Caribbean', and all the computers were showing the same video across their private network, and I discovered that they were using VLC to do that. Is that what you are looking for?

Hope this helps, Best regards, Tom.

I would not recommend vncserver/vnc to achieve this as the screen resolution is pretty low (this will depend on how fast the connection is but over the internet it can be slow) and the refreshes of screen updates can lag behind and severely hinder the transfer of a video stream.
