Yes. The encoder supports HTTP streaming, which enables content to stream through a firewall. Note that the port the encoder is streaming through must be open on the firewall.

The Media Player connects to the Transmitter but contues to BUFFER indefintely. This is usually due to the Software not being able to connect to the Video Device. Usually this is caused by another Webcam software program that is already using the Webcam or you are still in the preview mode. To fix the problem close down the other Webcam software and be sure that you are not running the Preview mode. Also rebooting the PC to free up the video device if it is hung will also fix the proble. The Transmitter Splash screen comes up but the program fails to start. This happens when you are using the Windows XP operating system and you do not have Windows Service Pack 2 updates installed. Please load Service Pack 2 updates for Windows XP.
