Video Streaming

Can anyone help me on how to do online video streaming?
All I know is that you use Windows Media Encoder to compress and optimize it, then put in the "<embed></embed>" tag to link it with the file.

1. Is it that simple?
2. What about using RealMedia and Quicktime? Suggest some encoders and how to embed in HTML
3. Give some tips on compression and optimization
4. How can I put a button to intialize when the video starts playing? What's the code?

Re: Video Streaming

You could do what you described, embedding though isn't streaming...
There are many real streamers available from hotscripts that you can get, various languages too. Your solution works well too, if you need to have a movie, a flash or a music file playing on your website.

If you buy the pro version of Quicktime you can use it to encode files.

Re: Video Streaming

Ahh... that's what I'm looking for. I'll check it out. Thanks alex.
Anyway, can anyone tell how to embed RealMedia videos? Somehow, it is different from just using the "<embed>" tag that I use for windows media player. What happens is that it'll request you to download the realmedia plug-in. I downloaded it, but still the same thing. There's nothing wrong with running winME right? I also tried to just simply link the page to the .ram file and choose "open from source" so that it'll stream on the realmedia player -then nothing happens.
Please2 give suggestions.
And you know where I can download videos on terrorism and GW Bush?
