squiblo Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Soon I am going to get started on something I've wanted to do for a long time, I want a user to be able to broadcast themselves (video and audio) and other users able to watch or listen to them (just like TV and radio) as live as possible, users watching will be able to pause, rewind and fast forward the broadcast. Right now I'm a just concentrating on the "TV" aspect. Is it possible using PHP for the user to upload the broadcast at the same speed a user can download and watch the broadcast? If so how can this be done? (a few key words and ill be on Google doing the research). Or the other option is to stream the video but the problem I can think of here is that the user will not be able to rewind or fast forward the broadcast as it is not being stored anywhere (well this is what I think, I'm not sure). What do you think is the best way of doing something like this? What languages would you use? Have you done anything like this before? If so, how? Do you know any guides related to this? Will I NEED a flash media server? Are there any other options? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
