iPhone/iPad HTTP streaming library or server

Is there any available open-source (preferred) or commercial library for on-fly segmenting and streaming of video to iPhone / iPad?

Also, is there any open-source/commercial server (alternative to Wowza) which supports this?

Apple offers mediastreamsegmenter:

You might also want to peek at Best Practices for Creating and Deploying HTTP Live Streaming Media for the iPhone and iPad:

There's also Darwin Streaming Server, but you may not need it.

Your first preoccupation should be to try to peek a good segmenter (video speaking): Apple's one is fine.

Then, if you wan't in-memory segmenting, mount the input source folder to a RAMdisk...
