Hello,

installed bbb this week. Great software and very useful. I have a 
question. Is it possible to play an AVI or an FLV-file in the 
presentation module? Are the other ways to view a flv-movie or AVI- 
movie form within bbb? 
The idea is that I'll first show the students a movie and later 
discuss it. It is for my target audience very important, they do not 
have to leave the bbb-envronment. I dont't want to redirect them to 
other sites and thus let them leave my presentation :) 

There are two options. Uploading a local file or playing a file from, for 
example, youtube.

Since the presentation module already has an upload feature, perhaps we could 
start
by allowing users to upload FLV (and other flash-supported movie) files into the
presentation module and have the video play within it.

This also has the advantage that when we add annotations to the presentation 
module,
you could annotate on videos (ala John Madden)

That's exactely how it should be I think. I'll soon be doing a refactoring of 
the
presentation module to the Mate framework, I'll make sure to design with this in
mind. The component that shows the slides also supports showing swf files, so it
shouldn't be too hard. My only concern is being able to play youtube videos 
given a
youtube url. I'm not yet sure what the best way to handle that is

Also see #197 in reference to uploading generic files.

DimDim has a good way of viewing webpages.

The presenter visits a webpage and the client also opens a connection to that 
webpage.
-This reduces the strain on the server and allows each client to separately 
view the 
same webapge.

not sure if it would work for youtube.
- The example above would not be able to play the video, only view other static 
pages.

We're not convinced that DimDim has a good way of co-browsing.  See

Any news on this? Open Office has the capability to play video within a 
presentation, I'm interested in how this is working out.

Any traction on this yet? I'd like to figure out how to play video in the 
presentation area as well.

We're not working on this at the moment ... we're pretty focused on record and 
playback.  

Are you a developer?  Interested in taking a shot at implementing this?

In the mean time I've used virtual camera applications to do this. Using 
something like the popular ManyCam or similar software video switcher allows me 
to play videos, include text overlay and logos on my live camera feed and other 
options including green screen.

There won't be any progress on this until we finish BigBlueButton 0.8.  After 
we release 0.8, we (the core developers) look at the top requirements from our 
community for the next iteration.

For more information on how this process works (and how you can influence it), 
see

thanks for the response bbb is exactly what i'm looking for and need for my 
stundents. I'm using the test server to familarize myself with bbb. I found a 
walkaround using 'flowplayer', but the problem is finding the class stream id 
that I want to show the AVI or an FLV-clip. Any Help?

Would your school be able to support the effort to provide synchronized video 
playback?  If so, see

   http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/FAQ#When_will_feature_X_be_implemented

That would certainly help.  Otherwise, there's not much we can do at the moment 
as we're focused on releasing 0.8.

This would be a brilliant addition to the software - something we really need 
and which is lacking in a lot of the alternative conference software.

We definitely have plans to add it at some point, see

  http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/RoadMap1dot0#Areas_for_investigation

We'll update this issue when it becomes part of the development effort for an 
iteration.  See also

We don't have this planned for inclusion in the upcoming 0.81-beta.  We'll 
revisit implementing this feature in a future version after the release of 0.81.

to BBB soon.

No plans to implement this yet -- we're currently working on finishing 
0.9.0-beta and getting it to a release candidate.
