Where to start

[philman]

I am looking to try out something.
I need to be able to do live streaming from 2 different places nationwide, and also to a website at the same time.
Example.
From a house in Texas can view a house in Florida, while also can be viewed online. All in real time.
Any Idea where to start?

Where to start?

Answer - get vlc

But more seriously in your example you only have one stream - I dont understand...
you say

From a house in Texas can view a house in Florida

that is one stream 'florida' -> 'texas' where is the other?
In any case here are two of my streams
http://just-do-it.no-ip.org/examples2/s ... e2.1.1.php
and if pressing 'go' does not show the two streams it is the fault of me and my tired server!!
basically vlc streams both 8080 and 8081

8080:

Code: Select all

rem stream sky mp4 with transcode to TS on 8080.bat c: cd "program files\videolan\vlc" vlc HTTP://Just-do-it.no-ip.org/_video/the_sky_at_night/skyatnight_aug07_16x9_bb.mp4 --loop :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vb=254,scale=1,acodec=mp3,ab=128,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.10:8080}}

and 8081

Code: Select all

rem stream AVI with transcode to ASFon 8081_B.bat rem broken "c:\program files\videolan\vlc\vlc.exe" HTTP://Just-do-it.no-ip.org/_video/the_sky_at_night/skyatnight_may07_16x9_bb_(rmr)_NEW.avi --loop :sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=254,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=asf,dst=192.168.1.10:8081}} "c:\program files\videolan\vlc\vlc.exe" d:\chriscontrolledwebs\Just-do-it\_video\the_sky_at_night\ubavs.avi --loop :sout=#transcode{vcodec=WMV1,vb=254,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=http,mux=asf,dst=192.168.1.10:8081}}

using these two batch files (sorry I use 'dose)
and you see them using the webpage/ activex n this forum viewforum.php?f=16
specifically in the case above from http://people.videolan.org/~dionoea/vlc ... height=180 and hacked about by me

the 'streaming how to' also is good for bedtime reading!
(http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-h ... to-en.html)

although these two streams are of a recorded file you couuld put a camera as the input to vlc in stead of

Code: Select all

d:\chriscontrolledwebs\Just-do-it\_video\the_sky_at_night\ubavs.avi or HTTP://Just-do-it.no-ip.org/_video/the_sky_at_night/skyatnight_aug07_16x9_bb.mp4

then you could watch your house in florida from texas ...
does this help?
Why do I hear a resounding NO heading to the uk from the us...
