A question about constant streaming...

Hello all,

This question is a complete curiosity of mine and doesn't need answers detailed down to the nuts and bolts level. Just an overview with a bit o' tech would be sufficient.

Let's say you had either video files or audio files that you wanted to broadcast continuously, like internet radio. Either the same file(s) in a loop, or in a predetermined stream...or maybe a random selection? People could then log on to your website to watch/hear the live stream, again, like Internet radio.

Could this be done with FMSS or would one need FMIS to create a daily/weekly/monthly playlist?

Many thanks in advance!

Sincerely,

wordman

    I did not get your question correctly though i will just try answering.

    Don't know whether that would good way of doing it - may be you can use some other server-side technology to get say XML based playlist and then client plays those files from VOD and Live - it will require solid client side scripting and some other server-side technology  along with FMS (if you are using FMSS)

    It will need FMIS because FMSS does not support Server-side playlist

    SE,

    So in order to emit live streaming with FMSS one would have to man the console continuously and feed it new live streams?

    Cheers,
