Hi Folks...

For developing a chat application with text, video and audio capabalities for a user group of between 20 to 30 or 50, which would be an ideal choice:

Flash Media server 3.5 (the free one), Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 or Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5? The way I see it, Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 seems like the ideal choice, does anyone have any view on this? Please do share with me. Thanks.

regards

    I think your conclusion is right and below are reason why i agree with you

    Flash Media server 3.5 (the free one) - will allow you only 10 simultaneous connections

    Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 - absolute NO for use case as it involves chat , Streaming Server won't allow any server-side coding

    Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 - the way to go

    Does FMS (Interactive addition) run on Windows XP professional? Cos the website only mentions Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008...
