I'm going to be building an application within the next six months that will be functioning as a 2-way video-conferencing system, as well as sharing some other data back and forth. I'll probably be using some sort of relatively expensive USB webcam, and am aware of the USB Video Class Device standard, which seems to the way to go. Now,...
I am looking for more information about the minimum requirements needed for a visitor to successfully stream a 1 Mbps 640x360 H.264-encoded video. I know that the user needs the latest Flash 9 version. I am looking for the minimum requirements for their computers. We want to switch to this codec for our videos, but do not want to ruin o...
I have images being sent to my database from a remote video source at about 5 frames per second as JPEG images. I am trying to figure out how to get those images into a video format so I can stream a live video feed to Silverlight. It seems to make sense to create a MJPEG stream but I'm having a few problems. Firstly I was trying to str...
I have an application that grabs video from multiple webcams, does some image processing, and displays the result on the screen. I'd like to be able to stream the video output on to the web - preferably to some kind of distribution service rather than connecting to clients directly myself. So my questions are: Do such streaming dist...
I am interested in developing an application that will allow me to build a list of videos from xml (containing video title, duration, etc) and play that list as my webcam stream. Meaning, if I were to visit ustream.tv, or activate my webcam on live messenger my video playlist would register as my active webcam. Does anybody have experie...
I'm preparing to build a social networking web site that should have some form of webconferencing. First of all uploading should - if possible- be web-based. I want to make use of standard webcams probably in conjuction with a flash app that will upload the video stream. The server then will broadcast the stream together with storing it...
I looking for something that I can either embed their uploader directly or send the video files to that will then encode the video and allow me to stream the video through a player on "my" website. The services, I have found so far are: Bits on the Run Bright Cove Video Streaming Services The service cannot be like YouTube ewhere th...
I'm working on a website where I want camera-recorded vidoes to be uploaded, and be viewable (but not downloadable) to logged-in users only. I'd also like to edit the videos, have certain images appear in the background, and possibly note the time at which they last stopped watching a video. (I.e if they stopped watching after 30 mins, i...
I am looking for everyone's opinion on what is the best way to stream video from a website built with ASP.NET. Some notable items include: The ability to stream .avi, .mpg, and possibly .wmv files The ability for someone to upload a video directly to a shared server and have it stream without any additional work needed (no compression...

What's the best way to stream files using ASP.NET? There appear to be various methods for this, and I'm currently using the Response.TransmitFile() method inside an http handler, which sends the file to the browser directly. This is used for various things, including sending FLV's from outside the webroot to an embedded Flash video pla...
I'm at a loss here--trying to come up with the best way to embed a video in a web page such that it can start playback at a specific frame number programmatically (not a simple timeline bar like youtube). ...

I'm watching a tv show on Hulu.com (which is btw, the absolute best streaming-video site around) and whether I close my browser, disconnect from the internet, and even if I restart my computer in the middle of watching a show, the next time I go to their site, I can resume the tv from exactly the time where I left off in the show. My qu...
I am creating an application for remote-auctioneering a live auction. Key to the application is that there is minimal latency between the actual sale and the end-viewers. I understand that there are alot of factors in latency - but buffering needs to not be one of them. The client needs to not buffer at all. Here are the priorities ...
Hello. Our client wants us to update their web application by adding video capabilities. It's kind of like YouTube, but with accounts and video privacy. It should be able to stream videos, both live and recorded. Instead of developing a custom application, we just decided to get a out of the box application. It can be open source, but w...
