So you can remotely play and watch these videos in iDevice without utilizing any storage space or any limitations of video formats. It comprises two components: Air Playit Server that runs on your PC and App Client that runs on your iDevice. The two parts will intimately interact to fulfill the task of streaming videos. Below is a full explanation of how Air Playit works.
