I have no idea what forum to send this to, so I figure this would be the best...
I have seen in game, both commercial and uncommercial streaming video...
Some in and some out of the public domain...
No bigh deal...
What comes into play is I have HUNDREDS of hours(liscensed), plus a potential contract that would like me to imvestigate into streaming into SL....
I have found very little info on what to do other than pass the URL of the repeater into the control and your done. Is there more than this? What formats are allowed? I know quicktime is the display method of choice and thats cool.
Is it as simple as getting a streaming server and going with it?

Setting the land's media addresses to the stream is all it takes. Though additonal control can be gained using LSL scripting. From: Ket Gould What formats are allowed? While Quicktime supports a _lot_ of different video types for non-live streaming, with live streaming formats it's quite limited. Using MPEG-4 delivered over RTSP is by far standard choice. see: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/technologies/mpeg4/From: Ket Gould Is it as simple as getting a streaming server and going with it? Yup simple as that. Also, if you want to do it ultra cheap on the software end, Darwin Streaming Server works well enough for dishing out streams if you're only expecting to handle a few dozen simultaneous streams at a time. If more go QuickTime Streaming Server. |
