Hello. I have been researching lately for a product/add-on/plug-in that would allow me to toggle video sources during a live broadcast to adobe flash media server 3, with adobe flash media encoder 2.5

Specifically, I was hoping to discover a way to toggle, during the broadcast, between the video source (high quality webcam) and the desktop of the computer being streamed from. If anybody has any idea as to making this happen, or has done it successfully, please help me out.

    One workaround is to constantly publish all the streams (with different names ) from different sources to FMS and then using server-side script tp create a new live stream which may dynamically switch its source among existing live streams.

    refer to Stream.get & Stream.play APIs in Server - side actionscript.

    This is not possible with FME 2.5.
