When it comes to playing videos on your iPhone or iPad you are left with two options. If the video can be played natively within iOS, you can transfer it to your device from computer via iTunes. However, battling with iTunes is something that most iPhone/iPad owners want to avoid as much as possible. If your device can’t read the video, you need to convert the video into the suitable format before sync. This method requires a degree of preparation and you have to wait a long time for conversion to be performed. What a pain!
Don’t worry! Air Playit can set you free.
What is Air Playit?
Air Playit is a totally free video audio streaming software that can help you stream any video in any format to your iPhone iPad over WiFi, 3G or 4G network. It comprises two components – a streaming server that must be installed on your Mac or PC, as then an app client for either your iPhone or iPad.
The streaming server can be used to manage video library and choose the video folder(s) you want to stream. The option to add iTunes playlist to the streaming catalog is also available. Access permission settings and PIN protection can be used to prevent unauthorized access.
The app client will automatically receive the video streamed from the server and play the video in real time. In other words, Air Playit delivers videos straight from your computer to your iPhone or iPad without saving the files and taking up any storage. Thus, no matter whether the video format is MKV, M2TS, AVCHD, MOD, AVI, WMV, or FLV, it becomes playable on your iOS device. And suddenly, the capacity of your device becomes infinite!
What you need to do on the client part is –
1. Launch Air Playit on your iPhone or iPad. Make sure the server is running on your computer. Then the client can discover the server automatically. It also provides the option to fill in the IP address manually in order to add remote server.
2. All videos as you set on the server will automatically display on your iOS device. Find the video you want to watch. Simply click on “Play” and you can watch the video on your iPhone or iPad immediately. A similar method can be used to stream music from your computer to your iPhone or iPad.
Live streaming is just one of the killer features of Air Playit. It also allows you to convert incompatible video to MP4 video and then wirelessly download it to your device so that it can be watched regardless of whether you have network connection.
