Realtime video-streaming into Second Life is that easy, also Pinkpink could figure it out! :P
Untill now she decided that it´s to difficult to set up a streaming-server, apart from the fact that she is not as developed with her hardware - and now this post should not become an advertisement for Quicktime - but she once installed the QTSS, paradoxicaly on the same macbook where she has installed the Quciktime Broadcaster, and it worked out, more or less quite easy but not recommendable and really annoying with the router-settings. Both are open source and for free. The broadcaster provides you with an adress looking like "rtsp://forexample.com/forexample.sdp". This adress is to copy into your parcel-media-settings and that´s it!
When she found Luigy Balhaus inworld a few weeks ago, she had been definitely glad, because he is offering these great services, and it was easy and fun to work with him at our last mixed reality event.
But now: a friend closed to Cyland, 5tefan Nuglesco, managed that the sonance.artistic.network is going to support CylandSL with their Darwin Streaming Server!! Thanx a lot! It means we will be able to stream any time independently from any extern services with no costs. Today our first streaming-test from St.Petersburg into SL succeeded! Thanks a lot to Sergey Komarov! He now will decide if Cyland will get it´s definitely own server during the festival - but we can also say that there are already enough solutions! amazing!
