Has Subsonic Video Streaming made it to WHS?

Subsonic with VideoWith the recent modifications to the latest version of Subsonic, video streaming has become an additional realistic component to the functionality of Subsonic. So we ask, should Subsonic have a version geared towards WHS for users who want their music and video on demand?

Using ffmpeg to stream movies in almost any format, videos can be streamed in any bitrate directly in the browser as if it were being watched as a youtube video. With the constant struggle to find the ultimate remote streaming library software for WHS users, many people believe that Susbsonic could be the new answer for out of the box movies and music at home, work, in the car on your cell phone, with no delay in audio playback and high quality sound and video. You can select multiple players, have simultaneous users logged in, and watch videos and recorded TV in full screen.

We have already started to find out if this is a possibility for WHS and the upcoming Windows Vail. While video streaming has already been made possible, WHS could use an automated version that does the job right the first time. If you want to weigh in, please visit the debate at the HomeServerShow.
