Re: Desktop sharing

The reason was the size the applet would become if it had to do the encoding. Xuggler and ffmpeg together are rather large. In contrast the size of the applet now is just a few kb.
There are also issues when using Xuggler inside of Applets.

Is there a reason you didn't choose to encode directly on the client to screencodec and then stream this to Red5?  I'd imagine time was the reason.

Hi,

We have one that we are testing right now. Hopefully, we are able to
release it end of next week.

Essentially, what we have is an applet that takes snapshots of the
desktop, sends the images to Red5, have xuggler convert them to video
that gets streamed to the flash client.

If you are interested in the code, you can find it here
http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/source/browse/#svn/trunk
Take a look at deskshare-applet, deskshare-app, and bigbluebutton-client.
