Hi All Just wondering how hard it would be to add a seek position to the getDatastream api so fedora could support streaming flash video and audio with players like jwplayer: http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player
Sounds like it would be a very simple thing to add to the function and turn fedora into a video/audio streaming server (at least over http). What do you think? Currently we have to bypass the fedora api and go straight to the file path of the file (extracted from a call to the fedora sql db) and wrap it with a simple php webservice using stream_get_contents($fh, $size, $seekat) ( http://php.net/manual/en/function.stream-get-contents.php ). Doing it via the API would be nicer though. Any thoughts on if this is something fedora would like to do or difficulty in implementing? Anyone else streaming video/audio from Fedora and doing seeking another way?
