Hmm, quick search shows vlc cli option for dis/enabling altivec use. General remarks say it makes a big difference but others have experienced problems. So at a guess I would say the G4 mac mini should easily-ish handle transcoding. Let me know if you need help/testing.

Sure, I can take a look at 0.9.x. May take me a little while to figure out.

No worky for me.
Mac OS 10.4.11 VLC 9.8 (download not compile). Playback error.
Transcoding throws an error in the terminal about how VLC was compiled. progress bar in the client makes no progress "-Enable release, -enable -update"

One thing you can try first is to run ./scripts/update_devel and restart the server and update the client, but I doubt it helps if you can't play anything. Also I haven't tested Knots with Ruby 1.6.x which comes with Tiger so you might want to update that to the latest too.

Thanks for the reply.
I also installed the 9.6 version of VLC to eliminate that as a possibility.
I cannot play any video I tried. I'll update Ruby on the 10.4 system and see what that does and then I'll change the log level and send you the output if I'm still seeing problems.
If I understand this correctly the server ought to be doing some transcoding. If so then it definitely was not as VLC had 0 process percent.
Anyway I'll contact with logs later
