Cornholio 0 #1 September 15, 2003 GEEK POST TECH TALK !!! WOOOP! WOOOP! All non geeks, you may hit the back button and continue PW'ing. ----- Is it possible to do some kind of video relay from one server to another ? What I'm thinking of doing is hosting a web cam (surveillance) at my house (slow upload) to my webhost provider (OC-3 Baby!!) and then serving that video stream from that server ? Get it ?? ServerA with webcam--->ServerB----> multiple viewers. ? The reason is that I want to keep an eye on my new puppy with my older dog...just to watch them. And having a few people (my, my gf and others ) on my slow-ass cable upload just ain't cuttin g it. Thx. Butthead: Whoa! Burritos for breakfast! Beavis: Yeah! Yeah!

SublimeBreeze 0 #3 September 16, 2003 What you would have to do is have a large cache on the oc3 so that you could upload x amount without surpassing the amount of bandwidth used to stream your video. The only reason you would want to use the oc3 otherwise is so lots of people can see a slow webcam.. eh just my thoughts.

BlueEyedMonster 0 #5 September 16, 2003 I used to work for Real RealNetworks. That is exactly what the RealServer product is set up for. I believe its called Helix Server now. They even have a stripped down freebee version. I'm not sure exactly how the new stuff works now, but if you need a Producer (encodes in real format), there is a freebee version there too RealNetworks - Free downloads Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
