But why not just do VOD? If you have scheduled programming then you have to
have a DVR type recorder, but if you have VOD then people can watch when
they want, right? Or am I missing something?

 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?
