re: Video Streaming Provider
We use Amazon: S3 for storage and CloudFront to stream out the hosted videos from edge locations all over the world. Over the past year, Amazon has added granular permissions at the level of CloudFront 'buckets', so I would think you could manage your permissions right there. Very inexpensive and excellent service over several years now. - Jason From: "Robert Rhodes" Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2012 12:27 PM To: "cf-talk" Subject: Video Streaming Provider My next project involves a bunch of streaming videos (mp4) for an organization's users. Each user will need to have access to a different set of videos. So, user 1 might have access to videos 100, 211, and 513, while user 2 has access to videos 21, 100, 513 and 624. So I'll need obviously need a different login, password, and access list for each user. I don't want to stream these videos on the organization's site, but rather from an external provider. Either I would just use this provider to stream the videos through a player on the organization's site (preferred), or move the user off to the video vendor's site and have the login and streaming happen there. In that case, I would need to set up the user specific video streaming lists at the provider. Either way, I am hoping to find a streaming video provider that has a straightforward API that I can use to stream the videos and possible to set up users, their passwords, and perhaps their access permissions to specific videos. Any suggestions? Thanks to all, as always. :) -RR ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:350967 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
