Hi,
  Anyone knows open source streaming media server written by Python?

I am trying to setup a streaming media server in python, wanna find an existing one and have a look.

Thanks.

Not open source, but there is a famous closed-source one called YouTube.

Are you kidding?
I know youtube, but do you think we can use it setup our own streaming media server?

I'm sure if you have a few hundreds of million dollars, you could buy 
YouTube from Google. Otherwise, no. It is secret, proprietary software, 
not available to anyone else.

Speaking of Google, did you try this?

https://www.google.com.au/search?q=python+streaming+video

Does that help?

Unfortunately, Google customizes the search results depending on who you 
are and where you are, so you may not see what I see. But for me, the top 
link (after the paid ads) is for a Python video streaming server.

Which is one of many reasons to prefer a search engine that doesn't put
you in a search bubble like that.

DuckDuckGo returns search results impartially because they don't track
your search results:

   <URL:https://duckduckgo.com/?q=python+"streaming+media"+server>

Obviously not. 

Before YouTube was bought by Google, it was common knowledge that it ran on
Stackless Python. So a streaming media server on Python is absolutely
possible. But no, I don't know of one you can set up and use on your own.

You can make a highly scalable server with PyZMQ and Tornado or Twisted.
NumPy is great for storing binary data like media streams. HDF5 (PyTables
or h5py) might be a better database than some SQL server, as it is capable
of highly scalable parallel binary i/o.

Thanks, Sturla.
Umm,I think we can setup one using the technique skills you mentioned above:-)
But that will need a lot work to do I think.

I am looking at an opensource one named Flumotion.

After a lot google work, I am looking at Flumotion.
Need to check the streaming mode and file formats it support.
