Ok, enough is enough. Stop making everything look like Knots' problem. If you have problems, it doesn't mean everyone shares your problems.

First of all, do you know that you are sharing your computer with the rest of the world now? Everyone can login to your computer and view your media. Streaming to internet requires some basic knowledge about networking. The least you can do is enable basic auth, but you should really enable SSL encryption too. This is where the problem starts. Networking library in extras that Knots uses has SSL disabled, so it won't work by default. I can provide a working lib and a newer version of the client to anyone who wants this feature, but that's why I've said in the wiki that this feature is for advanced users.

Secondly, you need to understand the limits of your internet connection. Your upload speed can be so slow that you can't stream decent quality video. This is not, I repeat not my problem. I'm providing a way to do this, but it's not my job to fix people's networks.

Knots allows you tinker with settings as much as you like. If quality is too good, lower it. If you get artifacts or something doesn't transcode properly, change format. If audio and video are out of sync, try fixing it with transcoding settings. I'm giving the tools to do this, but your really have to learn something yourself. Do yourself a favor and about streaming, networking, video formats etc and start tuning Knots to your liking. I'm trying to provide sane defaults, but I can't do everything.

I will try to fix bugs and add features so feedback is welcome, but a proper attitude may help you get them more easily.
