Summary

Streaming videos is still one of the most popular search terms on the Internet for the Raspberry Pi. There are a lot of different examples and solutions, some very complex some very easy.

Thanks to the work put into the UV4L driver, video streaming is becoming much easier to achieve. Compared to Raspberry Pi Server Essentials, Packt Publishing, my previous book, this chapter has been extremely shortened due to the easy that it has accomplishes now. Not only is it shorter, we have many more features to work with and can enjoy HD video streaming on the Raspberry Pi 2 with the smallest amount of effort.

In the next chapter, we will look at how to set up the Pi as a media center.
