Re: live vedio
I am not sure what you mean by "live" video.
If you want to play a video file on your web page, you need:
- a video file in a suitable format (eg mp4 h264) in a folder on your site;
- a player. There are several possibilities. Most of them use Flash, A good choice is the jw player from Long Tail video. There are detailed instructions on the Long Tail Video site about how to get the player working, and a set-up wizard.
Some modern browsers (Firefox 3.5+, Google Chrome) support aspects of the new html5 standard, including the html5 <video> and <audio> tags. These make it extremely simple to place a video on the web page. Unfortunately, however, there is no agreement yet among browser developers about the audio/video file formats which they should support; and of course most users (for reasons which escape me) still use IE, which does not yet support html5. But in a couple of years, the position could be very different.
If by "live" video, you mean video played in real time (eg the output from a webcam), this is much more complex. The webcam output would need to be converted to a suitable format, and sent to a streaming server. You would need root access to a server to install the appropriate codecs and other software, and significant knowledge of the operating system (and the patience of a saint) to get it working.
