This software was designed for 1 to many video streaming so there are 3 different interfaces:
1. Live Broadcast (for publisher)
2. Live Video Watch (for active viewers, discuss online)
3. Live Video Streaming (for passive viewers, simple live video)
Joomla integration for this video streaming software is based on a joomla component and a joomla module.
The joomla module lists active broadcaster channels & show names and a link to broadcast. If user is not logged a clickable message is shown to return to the website and login.
Component is developed using MVC (model view controller) for Joomla 1.5 . It's a Joomla 1.5 Native component.
We are developing this for all of you that want to build sites with features like on justin tv, ustream tv, mogulus, stickam, blog tv or their clones and just need the right plugin to provide this video broadcasting functionality.
All PHP integration source code is provided under GPL.
INSTALLATION:
Full details about the integration component and installation here:

REQUIREMENTS:
This advanced software requires 2 types of hosting: a regular php&mysql web hosting plan for the regular website features (you probably have that if you have joomla installed) and a special plan (usually on a different special server) for video streaming and other instant communication required between chat clients. You need 1 of these to run the interactive and streaming part of the software: FMIS or Red5. See the software requirements page on our site for more details. Red5 is free and open source but you need a VPS or Dedicated Server with root access to install it. If you're not very technical you can also find this type of hosting with management services on our site or from other providers.
Editor's Note
- This extension requires registration to download.

I have searched high and low for a script that would allow me to create a live video streaming site. I finally found it. This joomla component is so easy to install and use literally you can be streaming live video in ten minutes from your site.
I highly recommend this component to anyone looking to add live streaming to there site.

Is about 8 mounths that i follow these stand alone application, and i never try it because it need a Adobe FMS server for run and later a red5 server.
Red5 is an open source solution so i installed it on my server to found that is a good streaming server with a lot of application that run "out of box".
With the free version for joomla of these product, the test MUST be done.
It's very simply to instal, few option for configurate (realy just one preferences setting) and one module for display the application.
Red5 configuration also is simple.
The graphic style is poor but customizable (but editing php code) and an interface for setting the player color or for use an external player is a need for not expert joomla user.
Waiting for the next step, i thing that is one of the few "live broadcasting" component for joomla at moment.
