Overlays on live streaming events #214

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Hi Paul,

Request for comment on an advanced functionality:

I need to put overlay banners (images) and other kind of animated swf 
components on live streaming. Since live streaming has no exact beginning 
nor duration I need to "push" components during the live by manual click 
(administrator) or even bound to wall-clock time.
So, I have 1 live stream and (let's say) 300 players watching this with JW 
player. All players arrive (connect) at similar but different times.
I suppose, I would need to create kind of one to many broadcast component 
with some rtmp application server (Wowza) to be able to update and turn 
on/off the overlays in all the connected players. I woull call this 
"broadcast component".

Please tell me if you think it is possible to do inside the OVS plugin. I 
would like to develop this myself.
What do you think is the right sequence of steps to execute?

TIA
Haris

To put it more simply:
The part of the "broadcast component" is all clear to me.
I am looking for a way (internal API calls in OAS) to load and make overlays 
appear and disappear when I decide from my "broadcast component" while the live 
streaming is 
playing.
Does it exist? Can you point me in right direction please? Thanx

yeh.. this isn't possible just yet with OAS.. i started (but haven't finished) 
implementing an Overlay API to the 
OAS... when that's done, you could use that to trigger overlays to display.

Would you mind emailing me on enquiries@openvideoads.org to discuss this 
requirement further? .. i'd like to 
ask some more specific questions to understand how best to support this for you.
