RussianQuestion
I'm looking to record video from a user's browser to the web server. We've already got a working Red5 server up. I'm in need of details how to configure the server to store the video somewhere on disk, as well as a browser frontend to complete this.
Also, I'd like to have a way to update the mysql database when the recording is finished, if that is even feasible.
Need more info? Just let me know.
Solution
to be honest, i have never worked with red5, and it's a little too big to find the right entrypoint right now ...
you might wanna take a look at haxevideo (you'll need Haxe for that ... it's much smaller, and you can simply hook yourself into RealtimeServer::clientRead, to copy the data to any location you want it ...
OTHER TIPS
Red 5 can handle video recording out of the box, it needs no special config.
For the frontend video recording client you can use HDFVR which is specifically made to record through Red5.
Red5 1.0.7 has the best video recording implementation so far.
Disclaimer: I'm part of the team that developed HDFVR and I've also worked on Red5 fixing/patching 2 big video recording bugs (one, two).
