Thinkpad Using Macromedia Flash Communication Server, Userplane developed
a streaming video library of television episodes for the program, a
show that focuses on the unique
lifestyle of extreme athletes and
the sports they represent. Fully streamed episodes can be viewed on
the Re:Evolution of Sports web site at www.reevolution.tv.
Of course, you’ll need a relatively expensive Flash server to stream live video, but at least it’s a possibility.
Microsoft With more than 25 hours of streaming video, Re:Evolution.tv
represents the next level of media convergence. The site enables
visitors to watch each show in its entirety, view additional clips
per show, and even download each show to their computer. Launched
by Red Bull and brought to users via the Userplane application
platform, the web site enables enthusiasts to view, read about and
download entire episodes and photos, as seen on television. With
Macromedia Flash Communication Server, streaming large, high
quality video files is a simple process, requiring no plug-ins
other than Flash itself.
