Streaming video with mac

I am needing to setup a high quality video on demand system and I am having an extremely difficult time doing so. Let me quickly explain what I need to do. I want a teacher to sit at the main office where all of the servers, systems, cameras, etc are and I want the teacher to broadcast a class. Then I want students or anyone needing the training to be able to sit at his or her and with their broadband connection click on a weblink and the video would pull up and they could enter a username and password and join the class. Do you have anything that can do this???
if so how do these next items work???
1-after they click on the link to open up the live streaming video, do they have to download a client or will it open in his or her browser or use a program they already have??? Will it work on both windows and apple? and will it work in all web browsers (IE, mozilla, apple, etc etc)???
2-can i require a username and password to access the video? and if so what database does it pull from ? can it be integrated into active directory or something similar???
3-Is there anyway I can get some sort of collaboration??? I want the studetns to be able to type instant messages to ask questions to the teacher?
---if you have any products that can handle this please let me know...I am in a time crunch to get this done! Thanks so so much

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I see you haven't quite yet found the right forum for your question. Quicktime Broadcaster is probably what you are looking to use. There is a Quicktime forum here where if no one here has an answer:

  • Recording streaming videos with sound

    Can I use quicktime for recording streaming videos with sound? If not which Apple software can do it?
    Bye Christof

    You can use Quicktime to record streaming video +with it's audio+ by using a very simple trick. Using the same cable you connect your iPod/iPhone to your car's stereo system, connect your Mac's Audio OUT to its MIKE IN jack. I used FILE / OPEN URL to select the video stream source, then selected FILE / NEW SCREEN RECORDING. In the resulting 'Screen Recording' dialog box, I set the AUDIO slider all the way to the right, and under the arrow to the right, selected "Built-in Input Line In" for the microphone. I then used the appropriate controls to play the stream and record it. The resultant file was very acceptable. Good luck.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
    Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

  • Stream video with Adobe Flash Media encoder

    Looking for a video camera capable of streaming video with
    good quality and decent price.
    What camara should I buy?

    I'm not sure if the Vixia series can be used to provide realtime video to a PC.  They're not really designed for this purpose - they are primarily recording devices.

  • How pinnacle can be used for streaming video for mac app?

    How pinnacle can be used for streaming video for mac app?

    Hi naturalfemale,
    As mentioned in the referring article, closed captioning content has to be specifically added/enabled to a video for closed captioning to function:
    Additional Information
    Not all videos include caption or subtitle tracks. Check the documentation for the video you are using to see if it includes these features.
    OS X: Using captioning features in Mavericks

    At the moment, I do not believe there is an option for universal captioning.

  • Streaming video from mac to mac and from mac to Apple tv

    I just purchased a iMac i7 with Snow Leaopard. Until now I were able to stream video from my MAC to Apple TV and to my other MAC wirelessly.
    From my new iMac I cannot stream. Not to Apple TV (via iTunes) or from MAC to MAC.
    A bit annoying when it worked fine before I got new hardware and soft ware.
    Network is through a Timecapsule. I can still stream video (720p) from my Powerbook to my Macbook Pro (Leopard).
    This be a iTunes 9.1 issue also.
    Anyone else had this kind of problems.

    Some people forget that AppleTVs do not appear automatically in new iTunes libraries, especially if they originally configured it once a long time ago for another library.

  • With latest version of Flashplayer - unable to download streaming video with realplayer

    The latest version of Adobe flashplayer (11.5)  was loaded today (nov 9, 2012).  As a result, using either IE9 or Firefox, I was unable to download streaming videos using Realplayer, where it was set up by "Download the Video".  I had no trouble with Flashplayer 11.4, although I had the same problem with Flashplayer 11.3.

    Good comments by Hicks. While I an not as anti-iMovie '08 as many others appear to be, I really agree with both his assessment of the product and some of his distribution ideas. However, rather than the simple 2-tier product recommendation he presented, I would personally like to see a renamed version of the current iMovie '08 product be distributed as a free application to users and keep all of the DV based editors as a part of the current 3-tier iLife (which can be purchased by users who wish more editing/plug-in compatibility at a moderate price but are not willing to invest the money or time to use of FCE), FCE "prosumer", and FCE/Studio true profession editing packages purchased according to individual user needs.
    As we have seen in the past, innovations introduced by FCE frequently filter their way down to lower level software as enhancements over time. In addition, we have also seen a number of the new iMovie '08 developments being adapted to other applications as the means and processes are developed to do so. Frankly, I am curious to see where all these new innovations may lead given the opportunity for further development.

  • How can I stream video with Flash?

    Hi guys!
    I have a placeHolder MC in my main movie.
    Within the placeHolder is an external swf containing an mpg
    video.
    How can I code the preloader of the external swf to stream
    the mpg?
    Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.
    All the best,
    Mark

    if you mean stream as in streaming video, you need the
    communication server.
    if you mean preload the file, you can do so with various
    components in flash.
    loadMovie
    Loader
    MovieClipLoader
    and more that escape my mind atm.

  • Facebook Video with Mac Pro

    Hi all,
    Can anyone tell me if they're having problems with Facebook Video Calling with Mac?
    Everytime I use it, I get the following pop up. I click allow, and the call connects.
    My own image just freezes onto the window and I can hear the other person and they can hear me.
    Thats as far as I get though. I dont see the other person. Skype itself works ok.
    The interesting thing is though, that I go to the Library-Internet Plugin folder and all the other plugins Ive downloaded are there, but the facebook one isnt.
    I cant find the facebookvideocalling.app file in order to delete it and force a redownload of the plugin.
    Can anyone shed any light on how I might find the plugin to delete it, to reinstall it, or to fix the problem in general?
    Thanks!

  • Unable to stream Videos from Mac and IPad 3 to TV

    My Apple TV (1.Generation) is starting to work bad after an update.
    I am no longer able to stream videos from IMac nor IPad 3 or IPhone 4.
    Can anybody give me a help.
    Thanks.

    Not sure if I'm missing something here. AirPlay is the newer audio video streaming technology Apple implemented into their devices. Airplay video from a computer requires a newer Mac running Mountian Lion and a 2G or higher ATV. Streaming video from iTunes to a 1G ATV still works, it is similar to AirPlay but is technically not the same thing.
    Streaming video from an iPad or iPhone to an Apple TV is using AirPlay and also requires using a 2 or 3G ATV. These are hardware limitations no HDMI cable can fix.
    If you can not stream video from iTunes by selecting it on your Apple TV you have a problem. If you are trying to send video to the ATV by selecting it on a device you need a new ATV and/or computer.

  • Flash Streaming Video with Close Captioning

    Hello,
    I am trying to create streaming video using flash. I've
    already created the video and encoded as a FLV file.
    Two questions:
    1. I am currently hosting my streaming video on
    Playstream.com. How do I incorporate this video such that when a
    user views the content he/she will see a buffer bar loading as the
    video plays? A good example is on YouTube.com.
    2. I've aready created my close caption file and have it in
    xml format. How do I sync my close captioned file with the flash
    video?
    Thanks in advance.

    I don't know too much about how to capture both video and
    aplication monitoring moves at the same time.
    I do however want to warn you about a possible pitfall of
    making the presenter's video by recording with a digital cammera in
    front of a PC or TV monitor screen.
    The video from a monitor screen, taken with a digital camera
    comes out full of glitches and flashes. This is present the video
    in the monitor, and those used by the recording digital camera to
    capture the scenes. It's a synchronization problem and makes the
    video very unconfortable to watch.
    A wrokaround for this requires expensive and hard to come by
    equipment. To work around this, I would suggest to record a video
    of the presenter first. Have him or her read the script while
    standing or sitting in front of a fixed colored background. This
    helps to avoid distractions to the viewer.
    Review, edit and decide how you like the presentation video
    first. Create the video file, and then you can play it in a 2x2
    window on your PC monitor.
    Here is where my expertise stops.
    I don't know how or if you can then record the screen while
    manipulating and recording your application's CAPTIVATE file. Maybe
    it's possible to capture both windows at the same time side by
    side, but my point is that you need to avoid recording with a
    digital camera from a video monitor, it just doesn't look good.
    Hope this helps a little.

  • Streaming Video with Cue Points

    I have made a video with cue points, when it is in a local
    file, lingo can check its cuepointtime and cuepointnames as well,
    but when it is put in streaming server, its cuepointtime and
    cuepointnames are both empty when get by lingo.
    Could anyone please tell how to get the cue points of a video
    when getting it from streaming server?
    Linda

    you're welcome.
    for anyone else with a similar issue, using the info property of the MetadataEvent is the correct way to proceed.  (that event has no object property.)

  • How do I Capture Streaming video with Quicktime Pro?

    In Lamonts post about converting video for the iPod, it was pointed out that one can capture streaming video (Steve Jobs Keynote speech for instance), with Quicktime Pro. I have QT7.04 Pro, but don't know how to do this simple thing. Can someone please tell me?
    Smartmart

    it's possible. i did it myself, after a few tryouts.
    i still can't get the best result, but i got something.
    first of all you have to save the streaming file(thru the save as qt movie, from CTRL-click). when you get a stream it gets cached on your computer. you might playback it even when offline. so if all that you need is a simple playback, that's ok. but it's a cache, sometime the system will erase it from your HD.
    if you want to keep it as a qt file(or any other format) thats this is the deal. when you save the stream file, it saves a reference file(4kb) that reads the cache. you cannot recover them from the cache, not even by changing the termination, because the qt player won't recognize the .qtch files transformed into .mov.
    open the file(reference you saved before), choose export from the file menu, and choose the setting that you want. i still don't get a good quality(i know it's incredible that a stream file has a better quality...) and i still have to export the video separated from the audio. but if you need only the moving image to edit a homevideo, and your only source is a stream, it's a start.
    so if anyone feel like growing the knowledge tree, let's go ahead.
