After playing with Red5 I have been thinking of some more
"out-of-the-box" ideas to utilize its' capabilities.
I wanted to throw some of these ideas out there.
There seems to be a growth in Web based "TV" programing like ManiaTV
(http://www.maniatv.com) which has regularly scheduled "broadcasts" of
shows.
So I was thinking of creating (in a prototype) a fictitious Web TV
station with regularly scheduled Red5 based streams of different
"shows". The idea is one could create their content, then put it out on
a Red5 server for consumption on a scheduled basis. I was going to use
opensymphony's Quartz to build a server side dynamic scheduler of content.
The kicker here would be building a client based DVR or Flash scheduler
that a user could pick their shows to watch them later . This seems
like a great application that fits into Red5 sweet spot?
Am I reinventing the wheel? Thoughts?
