Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to live stream video or build a similiar video component like in youtube without using the Flash Media Server.

I know that you can import video and use the progressive download option to play video but that is equal to download the movie i think. I want that the user can pick up the movie anywhere…

Kind regards
