Hey everybody, I hope you're having a wonderful day. My question is as follows:

Right now I can view my live webcam feed from a client computer without any problems. What I need to do next is to view the client's webcam on the server. So its a bit like the common webcam chat room systems, with a difference of I only need use 2 computers; and I don't want to setup an additional media server to the client side (since it is the client side!). Any help would be much appreciated; thanks already for helping a newbie

    Am confused, may be i didnt get your problem right. You want to create something like a

    video chat application. Let us say there are 2 users connected to your app. They both publish their webcam to the server app. user1 will subscribe to stream of user2 and vice versa.

    "What I need to do next is to view the client's webcam on the server" - You wanted to view the webcam stream that user1 is pubishing to the server app? Lets say user1 is publishing the stream 'user_1_stream' to app name 'chat_app'. After this use the video player "$InstallRoot\samples\videoPlayer\source\videoPlayer\bin-debug\videoPlayer.html" and play the stream. Give the url as "rtmp://yourservername/chat_app/user-1_stream" and play the stream.

    Revert with more details.
