Hi,
For the 'Open Images Platform' (an open source 'video website' based on mmbase), I'm developing an extension on the existing 'media' application and called it 'streams', and am maintaining it in 'speeltuin' currently: https://scm.mmbase.org/speeltuin/mihxil/streams/ The point of the whole thing is that is supplies the functionality to upload and transcode actual movies and audio ('streams') via MMBase itself too. So whereas the media application is basicly a manager for stream-urls, the 'streams' application can actually provide the urls for that. It adds specialization builders like 'videostreamsources' and 'videostreamsourcescaches' which extends 'videosources' . 'streamsources' have an 'url' field which behaves as an upload, and streamsourcescaches contain trancoded versions of that (like images vs icaches). Transcoding is triggered automaticly, and actually the whole thing is pretty much comparable to images vs icaches. The streams themselves are stored on the FS, and can optionally be served out by another server. Transcoding can also be delegated to other servers (as it also icaches-generation could be, but for transcoding video it may be more essential that ithisis possible). Transcoding now happens via command line clients like ffmpeg, but it is pretty pluggable (we actually mostly use ffmpeg2theor). I originally intended to use JMF for that, but that's pretty hard, though I've not given up enitrely yet :-). I'd like to move this to https://scm/mmbase.org/mmbase/trunk/applications/streams. I myself will be responsible for maintaining it. There are still some improvements to be made, so that will happen in the coming months, but as it is, it is already usable.
