I'm playing around with Flash Media Server, and got it streaming my webcam live through the browser.
I will like to be able to stream live on the web. However, I'm confused as to how the process works on the web. On my localhost, all I had to do was install the executable file, use rtmp://localhost/live as the source, then create the swf file and HTML to broadcast it.
My questions are these:
I already have a Virtual Dedicated Server, and unless it can't be done, I don't want to purchase a Flash Media Server account with another FMS host. Do I have to install FMS on my server?
If yes, how do I install it on a Linux host?
Are there extra steps that I need to take, in order to make it work just on my localhost?
Thanks.
