Hello everyone, a weird idea is walking around my brain these days...
I recently got a Raspberry PI model B, which I currently use to stream movies from an ext4 HDD connected to it. The issue is, some movies are really big and have a high bitrate (20-24Mbps) so it stutters a bit when streaming over wifi. Some movies are unfortunately unwatchable due to this and I have to re-encode them (I use MediaCoder with CUDA and my GTX680 to reduce the bitrate to 8-10Mbps).
What I was wondering is, since my gaming pc is connected via ethernet and I get full 100Mbit speed to the raspberry, could I:
1) Get the movie file streammed by the raspberry
2) Encode it in real-time to 8-10Mbit/s
3) Stream it in live to the laptop connected via wifi
I know it seems really complicated and probably impossible, but I'd like to know your opinions about this, and maybe a better and easier method it there happens to be one.
Thanks in advance.
