Video Gateway (vgw)

Syntax

The Video Gateway runs as an active service agent, and is launched only by hm.

Description

The Video Gateway (vgw) is an active service agent which transcodes video streams into a different format or bandwidth. It can also act as a proxy which forwards multicast video onto a unicast address. The client application, vic, contacts the host manager, causing a vgw agent to be launched with the correct parameters. For more information, see "Using MeGa".
