Question

Creating a streaming Video Player w/bandwidth detection... HELP!

Hi everyone,

I've just been asked to create a video player which automatically chooses the correct bitrate video to stream by detecting the bandwidth.

I have no experience creating a video player so I'm looking for links/resources to do some research on the topic.

Has anyone here created a video player in Flash? Would it be better to create in Flash or Flex?

Once again, I have no prior knowledge in this type of creation and could use an experienced developer's opinion on what the first step is towards progress.

ANY information on this is greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Dey

    Yes, I'm aware of the flowplayer and it is definitely slick and awesome, but the free version is branded which is a no-no... and our budget does not allow a commercial license.
