I'm building a web app that lets users start a live broadcast by:
Going to our website & login with Facebook with the permissions to create live videos
Click on the "Start Live Video" button on our website.
That will create a new FB Live stream using Facebook API and an RTMPS URL will be returned
The user starts their live broadcast. We capture video on our website and push the video stream to Ant Media Server using WebRTC.
We then want Ant Media Server to rebroadcast the live broadcast to the RTMPS URL we'll provide it so that the broadcast will be sent to Facebook Live
We've managed to do steps 1-4 but we're having trouble with (5). Does anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks a lot.

is there a way i could make antmedia server schedule a broadcast moments before starting the restream
I am trying to know how get just the live video stream from a facebook page. In my case, I want to build an app to my church and I need just their live stream. On their facebook page are a lot of videos that was streamed, but I'm not interested that, I want just their live stream.
Problem: I don't know when they start streaming and I don't know how get it, I'd like to have just the streaming video that they start streaming.
Someon can help me with that?
IIRC you also asked this question in the FB Dev group and added the info that you do not have access to those pages. W/o access to them or having admin users granting your app access to them you cannot retrieve notifications/callbacks whenever a broadcast starts. Even when just polling them (using the endpoint CBroe mentioned) you need a page access token to do so.
I am currently using wowza free trial. I have a website and I need a similar functionality like Facebook live and Instagram live from a single button. What are the possibilities? what things do I need for that? being a developer I have been able to test the wowza API and I am getting a successful response.
Being able to make a purchase for my company I need to be sure that user can use integrated PC webcam without any encoder. Looking forward to your satisfactory prompt response.
Regards,
You can use flash to send Video from webcam to Wowza. Video will encoded by Flash
use webrtc send video to Wowza. Video will encoded by Web Browser
I have developed a simple Flex application that allows to a Facebook user to record audio. This application is published in facebook posts as SWF video (using "source" parameter on facebook post). My SWF communicates to a CMS backend to receive some parameters and to upload the audio file once it is recorded locally via flash player.
The application works OK for Firefox and it communicates to CMS without problems, but it does not communicate using Explorer or Chrome browsers. Any suggestion?
Another important point: the application works OK accessing it directly on Explorer or Chrome ( without loading it via Facebook post), so the problem is just when it is accessed via Facebook post.
See the documentation here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/feed-gaming/
I'm reasonably sure you can't make calls back to the server, you need to configure the SWF via URL parameters
My application isn't going to be revolved around soundcloud users, I will be using it for its nice api that is provided to stream audio. I also want to use the javascript upload feature but that seems to be out of the question too.
The record widget should be able to upload the audio to your server so that you can upload the audio not as an individual user.
I still haven't been able to get my app to work without using their authentication window.
Any help would be appreciated.
Nearly everything you do with the SoundCloud API must be done on behalf of a SoundCloud account. You can only use the SoundCloud API to stream content from or upload content to a SoundCloud account.
If you'd like to have SoundCloud functionality in your app, I'd recommend allowing users to connect their SoundCloud accounts.
"Authenticating without the SoundCloud Connect Screen", from the API docs: http://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/guide#user-credentials
With this method you can log in as a user in the code. Since every app must be registered to a user anyway, you can make a new username to register the app, and log in with that one.
