I am building a web-based project which has webcam one-way broadcasting part .(A user can open its own cam and some viewers can join its room to only view and listen). So i have decided to use Kurento Media Server(KMS) because of not having any experince with flash.
My questions in my head:
Thanks in advance
Do i need anything extra beside KMS to make a user broadcast webcam?
You'll probably need a TURN server for users that have some port limitations
Can Kurento provide me the live streaming to webpage?
Sure! Check the tutorials and the documentation for a full list of features.
And What is the difference using Red5 or Kurento?
Kurento is more than just a media server. It is a pluggable platform that offers computer vision and augmented reality capabilities, on top of video and audio streaming, recording and playing. It also offers WebRTC out of the box, which is something Red5 can't do as of today.
