Dynamically set publishing webcam feed

Hi!

I read this article that helped me understanding the basics of FMS communication.

There's just one thing I still don't get about the sample app: As a client, you always have to check the checkboxes (send/receive Audio/Video) in order to define who is sending/receiving what kind of stream.

How is it possible to manage the feeds from the FMS server?

So the clients can't set the checkboxes, but the server determines who is sending and who is receiving?

Thanks a lot!

    Hi,

    I am not very sure about your use-case, but what you are viewing is talking about rtmfp i.e. Multicasting. In case, you want to do a multicast (peer-to-peer) where you dont want to make FMS worry about publisher and subscriber it could be used. But, as I feel your requirement is to make a chat application (not peer-to-peer obviously), then you may like to use sharedobjects to create such kind of application:
