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.
