Anyone have a clue if there is some place out there streaming simple
animations, etc., like the ones done for the IRTC, for example, like a
TV station? No, I don't mean "flash based", or some useless stuff like
Joost, or whatever. I mean streaming the way you get streaming video
from an internet radio station. Can quicktime, do this? Mind you, I ask
about that one specifically, since its "currently" the only one
supported via the system available. Something more may be supported
later, but...
Trying to figure out some way one could turn the existing "movie
theater" in an SL area into one that actually "shows" shows, and in a
way that is consistent with how they work, not as a, "someone hit play,
time to play the stream from frame #1", which breaks the whole intent of
it. If something connects to the stream, it should start where ever the
moving is already playing, just like if you walked into a real theater
in the middle of one. (Of course, I get that the irony is that this is
probably "not" what any of them do, since the net runs on-demand, not on
fixed schedules. lol But, even if there is a way to run a server that
"could" re-stream files from a list of free videos, at set intervals...

Maybe YouTube has an API that you can use on your own web server. I don't know.

Oh sure.. The only one that answers is using the website, or something
that munges the messages in my news reader.. lol Seriously though, this
is one of those cases where you kind of hope someone else is already
doing it, since, you know... It costs "money" to actually set up a
server stream, and one can presume "more" money to get permissions to
show half the stuff you would like to, etc. ;)
Its kind of an annoying thing though, staring at some "screen" which has
a less than impressive "fake" first movie frame on it, when anyone with
descent bandwidth, and a sufficiently compressed video stream, and
"watch" video feeds in the world. Making them all "work", so they play
back at a set time... Well, actually I think the SL run ones already do
that, but I know for a fact they use an external server to run it. Hmm.
Guess I should ask them. Would be funny if, instead of Wall-E, they
showed, "The Adventures of Rusty." lol
Even funnier when they ooh and awe over it, ask where in SL its made,
and someone points out, "You can't do it in SL." ;)
