For streaming, I wouldn't waste any time at all on Helix server.
Apple's Darwin Streaming Server is a much better choice. It is free and
offers most of the functionality of Quicktime Streaming Server. It runs
just fine on CentOS 4/5. For encoding, ffmpeg works well. For cutting
up video there are a few options. The one with the best feature set is
Cinelerra. If you've got access to a Windows box (or emulation of one),
Virtualdub is also a good/cheap/functional editor.
Cheers,
