Any of you work with live streaming?
« on: June 11, 2012, 09:34:52 PM »
I was actually just setting up a web camera for the dog and her new pups -- Long story and I didn't even know where to start.

I don't know how to put it into code on a page, or anything.  Or what host to use.

Just realized that the p*rn folks are the ones who would probably know all about this...

Colin mentioned he was thinking of putting up a web cam at his 70 something year old Mom's house to watch over the stairs in case she falls.  And I got to thinking that THAT could be big market. 

So I ask:  what do you look for in a live streaming host?  Who are good ones to try?  How is the reliability?

Have you looked into IP cameras?
I'm sure they will make the whole process a lot easier.

I work with live streaming.  Events mostly, so different budgets involved. 

livestream.com offer a free service which is really good as long as you sit through an ad first (as a user).  For what you need it should be just fine.

Camtreams.com make it easy as well. No ads, but they pinch a feed of the stream.

If it's for internal use only then IP cameras remove all the headache. For keeping an eye on your wrinklies maybe a community approach similar to jabbakam.com would be the way to go.
