Please offer advice

Hey,

  I am hoping someone can offer me advice/guidance on the following:  I have a flash media server and a webserver at a different location.  I have multiple locations that are stored in my webservers database from which I want to have live video streams coming from.  What I want is those live streams to come into the server and I want to provide both live streams and also the ability to save pieces of those video into a private account on the webserver.  So essentially live streaming including VOD where the VOD is based on time.  This is a sporting event system so people need to be able to save their game from say 7:00 to 9:00 as well as watch the live stream when it is occuring.  It would be nice to have dynamic streaming and minimum bandwidth costs.  Any advice on implementation, things I should be aware of, or any help at all would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

John

    Hrmmmm....not too clear on what it is your trying to accomplish...but from what you're saying you want to stream live video and watch.

    In a client player whether its recording or vod the stream will play either way.......ie  stream.play(somevideo);  so that doesnt really matter unless you want it to work like a DVR...then the player will need to be able to seek to an earlier time.

    Now if you only want the client...as in the person using your system to record for a limited time...then i suggest you put a timer inside of the flash player that will only let it record for lets say 1 hour then closes the stream......and if you want to get more complex you can make the recorder query your database to see if they have permission to record and for how long.....and use the info it returns to allow them to record or not......just depends on how complex you want to get
