Hi, I would like to live manipulate live streaming videos on modul8, like, embedding UStream URL or making modul8 recognizing it as a live cam. How can I make it possible?

thank you!

[albanoalfredo]

did you find any solution?
I'd like to use a Ustream video embedded as a layer on Modul8
maybe some module could help, I think it would be very easy to develop, but I dont know any python

Hi all,

I do not know which format USTREAM is streaming its data.

But if you have an RTSP stream, here is the way to get it into Modul8 :

says that your stream is rtsp://203.125.227.74/3gpp

1) create a text file named myvideo.mov, write this inside :
RTSPtextRTSP://203.125.227.74/3gpp

2) if you have a QuickTime Pro license, launch QuickTime Player 7
Open URL... (rtsp://203.125.227.74/3gpp)
Save As... self-contained movie (myvideo.mov)

Then you will be able to open myvideo.mov to access the live stream

Regards.

David

Thanks David

I´ll try to encapsulate the .flv link from ustream in quicktime pro and import to modul8 as soon I have quicktime pro with me

Ah, ustream is using flv format ... flv is not supported by QuickTime.

'perian' plugin for quicktime solves that problem

iWebcamera for iPhone is a cool App.I test it with Modul8. Perfect!

I'm still thinking about this. It would be really nice if I could stream video from one place to another using an existing streaming service like Ustream or Bambuser. Yes they use flv video and yes I can get the flv to work in quicktime with Perian but...

1. How do I figure out the address of the flv-files for Ustream and Bambuser?

2. Ok, I can get a FLV to play in Quicktime but how do I a live streaming FLV to play inside Modul8? Do I need to make a container movie like in David's RTSP example?

3. iWebcamera, yeah that works but I need to connect a better camera. That's why it would be nice to use Bambuser.

So what I am looking at is finding a streaming service that can use a video camera (connected to the computer) as source and the the stream should be compatible with quicktime and playable in Modul8.
