Guyz i am planning to develop a software which will be used in the area of media i.e. Cable TV operators. The basic features that i need to work on are:
- Play Live TV channel stream coming from TV Tuner card (e.g. ESPN) or Play a video from Harddisk (e.g a movie)
- While above mentioned video is running, I want to add 3 kind of add ons: - Logo (specified by the user i.e. put it on right top or left top - A Scroll on the bottom of the screen (Like some news channel plays news headlines) - L shape Advertisement (Like some sports channels shows) - Full screen advertisement. If its a Live TV channel then it will be stopped and the ad will be played. and if it is a video from harddisk then pause it and play ads. After playing ads start the TV channel stream / video from harddisk. - Scheduling of ads i.e. when to run which ads
The logos can be a FLV/image/swf Ads will be mostly WMV, AVI, MP4 and other popular formats.
I need some good tutorials for this project. I have no idea of Multimedia programming in C# .net. Also if there are good components that you want to share with me, then i will be really grateful. Basic hurdle for me is the playing multiple videos simultaneously.
Sorry if i am unable to specify neatly, so ask me if you dont understand.
I have searched many websites but was unable to get any info regarding this project.
Thanks in advance.
