content which are converted to streaming files are stored in multicast. The video signal is forwarded by IP multicast
the streaming media and the permission of sever is set by and finally received by multimedia terminal equipment of

IV. CONCLUSIONS
The requirements of computer distance education of
digital piano for network are wide coverage, large capacity
of trunk optical and high transmission rate, for bandwidth
are real-time interactive distance education, real-time
video and audio data information transmission. But the
requirement is more than 100M bp/s bandwidth in this way.
Figure 2. Transmission diagram
Because of the restriction of bandwidth, modern distance
education requirement such as real-time teaching,

At present, the method of realizing video and audio technology, such partial computer networks are not

as showed in Fig.3. From the figure, we can see that after as the effective piano education form for improving the
original video and audio stream are encoded and piano teaching teachers, the shortage of site, the teaching
