Hi Ricardo,
if you want to display video files stored as XWiki Attachments you don't
really need a streaming solution, do you ?

If what you want to be able to do is to display video stored in attachment
within wiki pages, the easiest thing to do is to embed a flash video player
or a quicktime, vlc, whatever plugin in the page, passing it the URL of your
file, you can do it quite easily. There's examples of this on some articles
@ http://blog.xwiki.com -> if that's what you meant I'll post an entry on
XWiki.org to explain how it works.

If not, well, someone else will have to come up with an answer :-)
