record video and audio via a live webcam


I love the FLV player ...I love the FLV player and wanted to inquire about a new project to have an embedded flash player that can record from a users webcam and microphone. I think it would be very popular for personal websites and commercial websites alike.

This would be embedded just like the FLV player but it would allow the user to hit a record button, review their recording, and hit save to submit it to the webmaster. It could be used for webmasters to allow their visitors to leave video and/or audio messages for any reason: feedback, guestbook, etc. There are a few products out there but none that are open source and none that are free for non commercial use. Especially because FLV player is able to achieve playback of files without a flash video server, I think there would be a high demand for it written by Jeroen. I personally would donate $100 towards its development.

Examples are

Wintechmedia's Flash AV Recorder - expensive ($200)
http://www.wintechmedia.com/mproducts.htm

Userpane's Webcam recorder - looks good but the actually swf and media are on the userpane site
http://www.userplane.com/apps/videoRecorder.cfm

chuPPo - hosted with a high monthly fee starting at $50/mo

I will take a look at this. I have already implemented the capturing of microphone and webcam in the 4.0 player, only thing to do would be the sending of the data to a server. Will keep you updated!

Jeroen,

If you can capture video and audio from a device using flash on the client side and then capture as a filestream on the server, that is all we need. using .net is a good way to accomplish this with the ajax implementations, or other filestreaming classes in .net.

please let us know of your advances in this arena !! :)

I don’t think this is possible, since the video ecording capabilities are not exposed in actionscript, but are rather built into the RTMP API. So one does need an RTMP server to be able to send video.

There are several open-source RTMP servers / libraries out there though. Please take a look at the third-party-app threads.

Note that the sending of videodata to RTMP does already work in the 4.0 player.

I would also like to be able to record live webcam streams from the client and store the recording on the server in a format that can be streamed back to a different client at a latter time. I gather this can be done with the 4.0 player. Could I get some pointers as to what would be required? Streaming server, red5 or wowza, RTMP, code examples?

Firstly, why don't you just google simple terms like "opensource flv server" or "opensource flv streaming"... do some work yourself you ignorant fools.

The author of the original post: good question and genuine request.

Response: Take a look at the Java based Red5 http://osflash.org/red5

It is an opensource Flash streaming server (based on Apache, Tomcat and JRE libraries) that allows someone to stream both live AND pre-recorded Flash FLVs via a web browser or mobile device.

Hmm, I also cannot find anything @ Wowza.

There’s three flashvars you need to set though:

1. streamer > the rtmp://yourserver/yourapplication address
2. file > the ID of the stream you want to record/publish
3. type > “camera”

If you insert ‘type=camera’ in the setup wizard, you already see the webcam being accessed wehn starting playback:

http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?page=wizard

Additionally, you can also use the testpage to test your file/streamer variables too. The testpage shows a log with, amongst other events, responses from the rtmp server:

Hello,

At present I broadcast live from a videocam and a TV Tuner using a ShoutCast server and the NSVtools that captures the filming and has only 6 seconds delay in brodcasting. But there is problem, NSVtools is too old (2003) since his author was hired by AOL and then quit out of the job.

NSVtools is too old for Windows Vista and sometimes is not stable with Windows XP

http://forums.winamp.com/

Please check:

SHOUTcast TV / Nullsoft Video (topics)

So the great solution is red5

I installed red5 in my Linux dedicated server and you can play the videos to see how they work:

http://www.perweb.tv

The question is:

Could JeroenW develop a capture sound and video Tool in order to live broadcst thru the Internet like:

1. NSVtools for ShoutCast server
2. Flash Media Encoder

I wait the valuable coments of the members of this forum.

@perweb: this is indeed possible through the player at present already ;) Use the ‘type=camera’ flashvar to publish content to Red5.

@Jim: that’s a good suggstion. I’lll check it out. Note that right now you can set ‘quality’ to ‘false’, which’ll set the dimanesions & framerate a little lower. The image quality is completely left to flash still though:

if(quality == true) {
	camera.setMode(480,360,25);
} else {
	camera.setMode(240,180,12);

I've spent a bit more time tinkering with the cameraModel.as file in an effort to get what I felt was minimally acceptable video that did not cause the player to buffer frequently during playback but would like to see how it works for others. My testing can only give me a limited sample to evaluate. If any here have the time and inclination and would like to create a Test video for my review I'd appreciate the help. Below is a link to the test page I built to test recording to my wowza server. When you finish recording, click the Link Button to play back your test video. If you'd like to have a go at helping me determine if it's working well enough to be acceptable.

I still struggling with frequent buffering. I took a look at the videorecording example FLA that ships with Wowza's Server and note they've got this defined in their FLA bc.. // set the buffer time to 20 seconds to buffer 20 seconds of video
// data for better performance and higher quality video
nsPublish.setBufferTime(20);
Has anyone figured out where to accomplish something similar in the JW 4.2 player? I'm just wondering if it has a seperate Publish buffer at all. If not, perhaps it's worth consideration. It would useful for those of us on an rtmp server.

@Jimb - I have noticed this too but I know literally nothing about Actionscript. I tried looking at the JWP source to see if there were settings that could be tinkered with but couldn't find anything in the single .as file that comes in the download. If there is scripting in the FLA somewhere, I'm out of luck.

Also, using something like a 20 second buffer wouldn't be of use to me as I need it for a near real-time application, much like justin.tv, where those broadcasting need to interact with others broadcasting or using chat, 20 second delays all round would prevent that.

There doesn't seem to be a decent commercial solution for this type of thing? It all seems custom made.

How are you using the cameraModel file with your swf player? As it wasn't in the source download I didn't know it existed. How is that used? Sorry, Flash is really not my thing!

Please keep in mind that you'll need to define your own rtmp streamer as I'll take mine out of the action script before I recompile it for you.

Yup the version I sent requires you enter the streamer as usual. For my own use here I fill in most of the flashvars in keeping with the standards I always use. That way not so much has to go into the html code to define a player. I know I'm kinda lazy about some things. :)

You're more than welcome. If there are any hiccups it will be in the rtmpModel.as That might happen if Wowza and Red5 have any different protocol requirements. If it fails, just grab your log file and tell me what the errors are and I'll revise the rtmpModel to get it going quickly.

@VLC - if both machines have a http:// address - it ought to be possible (havent actually tried/seen VLC stream to JW though)

*but* the general rule is that both machines must be "online" with http:// addresses or both machines have to be local machines - these are flash security restrictions made to prevent outsiders from accessing your local filesystem, and presumably can not be circumvented....

@VLC I don't think that's possible, you'll need something on the server to send the stream out to people. You can either have people connect directly to your computer, if it has a public IP and your connection can handle the demand. Otherwise you'll need something like FMS to be the middleman, you send your stream to FMS and it sends it out to the people. You can use something like Red5 or Wowza instead of FMS, or a CDN service.

Don't think there is a way around this.

@VLC It should be possible for JW Player to tap into the VLC stream, if a) You have a publicly accessible IP for that computer b) The port is opened up on your firewall / modem / router. However this isn't of any use unless you only have one person watching or you happen to have an amazing internet connection. Otherwise you'll need to use a server out on the internet. Usually you would use Red5, FMS etc, JWPlayer cannot take the place of these.

I guess you could install VLC on your server on the internet and have it stream from any device or file connected to it but that's probably not a good idea and not what it's designed for.

the code you have posted is swfobject v.2.1 code

also fullscreen is a flash *parameter* and not a *flashvar*

the safest is to host the *swfobject.js* and the *player.swf* along with the page on your own server...

have you downloaded the swfobject v.2.1 from - *http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/*
and placed on your server, along with the .html file as indicated by the line:

have you downloaded a player from - *http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/*

have you tried the player demo in the *readme.html *from the downloaded (and unpacked) .zip file ?
(please note the swfobject.js from the download is still a v.1.5 - Dec. 30, 2008)

and have you renamed it from "player.swf" to "Player.swf" as indicated by the line:
swfobject.embedSWF("*Player.swf*","jwf_player", ...

do you have a placeholding div somewhere in the page by the ID of "jwf_player" as indicated by the line:
swfobject.embedSWF("Player.swf","*jwf_player*", ...

that is a line like this: *<div id="jwf_player"></div>*

if you make the above line like this:
*<div id="jwf_player">
<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">Get flash</a>

then a link to adobe will show if your flash browserplugin version is lower than the number used in this line:
swfobject.embedSWF("Player.swf", "jwf_player", "425", "344", *"8"*, null, null, params, atts);

you should write "10" rather than "8" to make sure the flash browser plugin is up to date, safe and able to play most new video formats...

adobe flash versiontest - *http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/*
adobe flash deinstall - *http://kb.adobe.com/go/tn_14157*
adobe flash install - *http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer*

note that IE and the other browsers does not use the same - so check in each - and also note that sometimes a deinstall is needed before the update will function properly...

and finally please compare your code with the examples on - *http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/tutorials/Javascript-API-Examples*
there are several small differences -
when in doubt it is always good to start out with known working code...

I'm interested in being able to have users be able to upload their webcam recordings (just like on youtube) to my site which will be using a youtube-like script (hwdvideoshare for Joomla)

Can it be done?

hi guys,
i am working with red5 now.. and i want to broadcast video and audio from my webcam to the red5 server..Here is my player code..I can successfully get the a steam from red5.. i just want to broadcast via Jw-Player.

<script>
var s2 = new SWFObject('viral/player-viral.swf', 'ply', '320', '320', '9.0.124', '#000000');
s2.addParam('allowscriptaccess', 'always');
s2.addParam('allowfullscreen', 'true');
s2.addParam('wmode', 'opaque');
s2.addVariable('id', 'ply2');
s2.addVariable('file', 'b.flv');
s2.addVariable('streamer', 'rtmp://localhost/oflaDemo');
s2.addVariable('type', 'camera');
s2.addVariable('bufferlength','2');
s2.write('Player2');

</script>

is there something i did wrong ?
Thank you.

The JW FLV Player only supports *type=camera* up to the v4.5.207 release.

If you need that release, you can get it here:

*http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/log/trunk/as3/player.swf?rev=261*

In your player code, the flashvar *id* must match the id that you are using in the new SWFObject() method:bc.. <script>
var s2 = new SWFObject('viral/player-viral.swf', 'ply', '320', '320', '9.0.124', '#000000');
s2.addParam('allowscriptaccess', 'always');
s2.addParam('allowfullscreen', 'true');
*s2.addVariable('id', 'ply');
s2.addVariable('file', 'livestream');*
s2.addVariable('streamer', 'rtmp://localhost/oflaDemo');
s2.addVariable('type', 'camera');
s2.write('Player2');
</script>


The stream name shouldn't have an extension. No bufferlength is needed. wmode=opaque isn't needed.

You need to get release v4.5.207 or lower.

type=camera is NOT supported in later releases.

Hi

It is easy to get the type=camera to work in later versions of JWPlayer.

Let me know if you need to make it work again.

BTW. They might have removed that ability to hide the fact that RTMP Buffering does not work

I am battling the problem and trying to fix the problem that videos recorded with the type=Camera will not play back properly because the RTMP streaming has major bugs.

I will keep you posted.

Quite the contrary, I have no problem using FME3, the Red5 Demo Publisher, or the JW FLV Player camera (v4.5.207) as a publisher to Red5 v0.7and JW FLV Player v4.6.299 as a client. If you leave the bufferlength alone, the player figures out its own bufferlength.

Have you ever watched the metadata output by the player when it is receiving a livestream?

Me thinks not!

Also, It seems that Video chat will work ok with live streaming but not as the Camera Model exists today in JWPlayer.

If you would like the patch to allow live streaming without recording, which causes major latency problems, so you can create a live video chat with JWPlayer. Let me know.

This patch will also solve the problem of trying to play a live stream and having it stop at some arbitrary time length.

Hi guys,

I read lots of stuff here, but I think I must be retarded somehow :)

I want to capture a live stream, which will be broadcasted on JW Player.

Is it possible to do that for free? I cannot see a single reason for why it can't be done. But as I said before I'm not an expert in such things. So I need your feedback on this :)

Could you please send a copy of your answers to akinpek@gmail.com, so I will be able to see your solutions immediately.

Thanks a lot!!

How about instead of saving the data on the server, make it possible to save the data on the local hdd while watching the program so that people can pause the stream and stuff.
