Website - Create Streaming Video

[Haui]

So I have a personal website that I would like to make a page just for streaming video. I went to an airshow this weekend and would like to add the videos to the site. Instead of having the users download the videos, I want to have the page be a media player and stream the video.

Where do I begin?

Upload them to youtube and grab the link to embed them into your site.

I believe for full functionality, you need an OBJECT tag as well as an EMBED tag.

Basically many file types support a progressive method....flash, most codecs supported by quicktime, etc

Yup. Most simple and cost-effective way to do it. Anything else and you can expect it to suck bandwidth or turn people away because they don't have the right codecs.

Can I use youtube and run a script or something to show the video on my site?

Yeah. Just grab the embed code at the bottom of any youtube video.

Not to be rude, but if you're asking this then you don't know enough about making a website to add video in any way. They give you a snippet of HTML code to embed the video in your page. You add that where you want it in your source code. The end.

1. okay the start was rude
2. the poster eventually got back on topic and provided you with the relevant info
3. you responded with a snide comment.

the fourth law of thermodynamics ( I just discovered it while cleaning my coffee machine's filter) dictates that during such a collision, between two assholes in this case, the gravitational forces of the lesser of the two degenerates serves to mute any effects of the larger.

therefore, due to the existence of gravitational constant, the lesser degenerate will always remain at a constant ratio of degenerateness with respect to the larger.

yes, I just called you and asshole.


edit: also, I don't drink coffee

I am not bound by the laws so :

http://www.youtube.com/sharing that is sample youtube code

http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=embedding_flash sample flash code, however that one is one that you might has to customize to suit your needs

http://www.jakeludington.com/p..._media_player_wmv.html embedding wmv


usually I recommend that you analyze your audience. Flash can be killer @ HD resolutions, and WMV is usually hardware accelerated. for small stuff however, flash can have instant load times and remain not only platform-independent but as codec-neutral as you can get since practically everyone has it.

As for file size, if you are doing decent-quality video or higher, the vp2[sic] codec for flash seems to give me numbers that are acceptable for the quality loss.

basically you have to do your homework if you have limited resoruces and need to fufill a niche. otherwise just put it up as wmv.
