The video stream from VGA Broadcaster is fully compatible with applications such as Windows Media Player, VLC, QucikTime, and Adobe Flash.

Low-cost - With VGA Broadcaster, you own the web presentation capability outright. There are no setup or usage fees and it accommodates an unlimited number of participants. It is three to four times less costly than WebEx or LiveMeeting solutions.

Versatile - VGA Broadcaster works with any operating system, including Linux/Unix, Windows and Mac. It is also the only solution of its kind to transfer images from most web cameras, cursors or any other objects generated on the screen by DMA.

How it Works

To use VGA Broadcaster, the presenter simply plugs the DVI or VGA cable from the source device into the VGA Broadcaster product. VGA Broadcaster then interacts with the Epiphan Systems collaboration server to deliver the visual content to remote participants via the web. Remote participants can open their browser or a streaming media player and enter the presentation's password in order to view it. For more details, you can read the VGA Broadcaster specifications.
