Project Goal

SopCast Player is designed to be an easy to use Linux GUI front-end for the p2p streaming technology developed by SopCast. SopCast Player features an integrated video player, a channel guide, and bookmarks. Once SopCast Player is installed it simply "just works" with no required configuration.

Background Information

SopCast Player began life on Jan 1, 2009. The program was created to bring an easy to use interface for linux to the commercial, but free, sopcast.com streaming video service.

Current Initiative

I am working on a method to rehost the channel guide service to provide a more fluid expierence to the end-user. A solution has been implemented in Google App Engine and is now in the process of testing to ensure feasibility. Please stay tuned for further information.
