Question

Re-encode and send to Flash Media Server?

Hi all,
I hope this is not a basic question - I'm in a bit of a loop with this.

I need to do two things:
grab a live video feed from a professional DV camera - the feed would be a standard BNC (composite) video cable + XLR mic cable or similar. I need to take that feed and somehow convert it to feed and broadcast live through Flash Interactive Streaming server (...a reliable hardware solution would be great!)

I will also be receiving Windows Media MMS feeds from our parent company - can I re-encode live and send through Flash Streaming Server in real-time?


Also - just in case it makes a difference, the camera is PAL - not NTSC. So far I've had no problem running tests with a camera connected directly via firewire.

Thank you for any help you can offer.

    it seems that you are seeking for consulting. Actually, it's not difficult. Will your company pay??

    Thanks for the offer, but I'm doing initial investigations at the moment, and I don't have funds to pay for a consultant.

    I was kinda hoping just to be steered in the correct direction - I'm pretty good at filling in the details myself.
