Greetings,
I might be putting together a prototype audio-oriented webcasting
server for small town meetings and the like. If you have
any comments
or know someone who has already done parts of
this, please
drop me a
note: clift(a)publicus.net
Are you aware of icecast?
http://www.icecast.org/
Yes, in fact I've been collecting lots of webcasting tech related links
here:
http://del.icio.us/dowire/webcasting-tech
What I cannot find anything on is some sort of open source java applet
that might tie into a content management system designed to work with
Icecast or some other streaming server.
The idea is pretty simple, allow someone with a streaming account to use
any web brower and say a 128K Internet connection to grab audio from a
meeting or public event via their line-in jack withour requiring special
software. A second step would be to integrate grabbing of webcam shots
that would synchronized with the audio.
Any pointers?
