Linked video system

Posted: Mar 1, 2009

I'm in the early stages of setting up a video content site for a newly created cable channel. We don't want to stream the cable feed live, but all clips will be posted online. Basically, I'd like to have a pseudo-stream of the various clips selected randomly by category. For example:

Three types of video:
1. Content video
2. Ads (30 second)
3. Ads (1 minute)
4. Ads (2 minutes)

Then we would want a formula that randomly selects a video from each category in certain orders (e.g. 1,2,1,3,1,4,4). These videos will then play in order, hopefully with minimal or no time between clips (any sort of pre-load possible?) in the same video window. The ideal would be to have a video that streams as if you were watching it on TV.

I don't know if this type of system would be possible with the scripting available with flowplayer, so just testing the waters right now.

Hi Nick,

Yes this is definately possible, in fact I've already done it many times for clients with FP. Though it does depend slightly on what adserver you are using (if any) or if the 'bank' of clips is on a database or flatfile.

I could do this for you with some good Flowplayer Javascript and PHP (and MySQL if needed)

Thanks for the reply Liam. We won't be using an adserver currently, and for now videos will be flatfile. Ideally, I'd like to have this developed in conjunction with a DB system so files could be uploaded, tagged, and displayed accordingly. I'll check out your website for more information, but have you done any work with Joomla as well?

Hi Nick,

Sorry for the late reply, been busy with many things...

No I haven't used Joomla for quite a while, it's probabaly on a whole new version by now. I got fed up with the laggish backend and switched to Wordpress or fully bespoke.

I can make this work with a DB or read from flatfiles, it's not much different. I've created many video CMS systems that had full upload/conversion features and then spitting them out inside flowplayer.

http://FightNightLive.co.uk is the main example

I'm half way through the updated company website (now it's finally stopped getting hacked) so check it out -> http://GoodingsMedia.com

I haven't had a chance to put on all of my latest work yet, but will get the portfolio updated as soon as all the copy is done. Feel free to contact me so we can discuss this over email

Nick

We offer a preexisting solution for this, which uses flow player, perhaps we can discuss? RJ@dynamicnetworks.com
