Could anyone port sop-cast to FreeBSD?

"SopServer is released for both Windows and Linux platforms, but only Windows version are released publicly and can be used free."

please see here,sorry I don't know how free A FreeBSD port really need?

Nowadays, all services provided on http://www.sopcast.com/www.easetuner.com are totally free. You can download all software listed below freely.

All channels shown on SopCast are published by users and only for test purpose.

All downloads (include SopPlayer and SopServer) and channel list can be copied and distributed freely for anyone. Any portion of these may not be sold, resold, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose that is not expressly permitted by SopCast.
 
suiyuan, im confused do you want it ported as in a FreeBSD binary? or just want a port for it. I couldn't find the source so I'm assuming it's closed source, although like I primarily thought the Linux binary works fine with linux_base-f10-10_4.

I hope I'm not in violation of any licensing by doing this, to lazy to read stuff and things, but if you want a package I wrote a FreeBSD port for it.

Code:
SopCast is a simple, free way to broadcast video and audio or watch the video 
and listen to radio on the Internet. Adopting P2P(Peer-to-Peer) technology, It 
is very efficient and easy to use. Let anyone become a broadcaster without the 
costs of a powerful server and vast bandwidth. You can build your own TV 
stations comparable with large commercial sites with minimal resources. Using 
SopCast, you can serve 10,000 online users with a personal computer and a home 
broadband connection.

SoP is the abbreviation for Streaming over P2P. Sopcast is a Streaming Direct 
Broadcasting System based on P2P. The core is the communication protocol 
produced by Sopcast Team, which is named sop://, or SoP technology.

${LOCALPORTS)/sopcast/distinfo
Code:
SHA256 (sp-auth.tgz) = 5ca407429dd54b0c195e05f06b33f79730a5dfdb8e7b14bf96b384f9ae8391d9
SIZE (sp-auth.tgz) = 345711

only issue is that the version specified will eventually become inconsistent with the actual version of the binary since the dist tarball doesnt specify the version on it, and either DISTVERSION||PORTVERSION is manditory. This will also cause a diff hash for distinfo thereby that file is useless.

Happy sopcasting
 
Makefile edit:
Code:
's/vlc:${PORTSDIR}\/multimedia\/mplayer/vlc:${PORTSDIR}\/multimedia\/vlc/'

and the entire post:
Code:
's/${LOCALPORTS)\/sopcast/${LOCALPORTS}\/linux-sopcast/g'
