Abstract

We describe an interactive video-on-demand (VoD) service, which supports VCR-like functions. It consists of two parts. The first part is a database, which contains the information concerning the videos. This information is published on an Intranet Web. The second part is the actual video distribution using the client server model. The architecture combines network manipulation of high level and a modular system of pluggable components which provides adjustability to the needs of the user
