anybody has any idea how to do this??
kindly share your knowledge...
Looking forwards!!

You can either open your MMS url directly in a UIWebView or in a MPMoviePlayerController.
Properly encode your MMS file, so that can be played in iPhone.

So generally, I want to make an app which has video chat functionality for iPhone. But after many searches, I am still not able to find any successful results. Is there any public or even for that matter, private API available for doing this on iPhone??? If you have an YES answer, please help me.
Basically, what I want is to read the streams of the video on both the devices connected for chatting. Thanks a lot in advance and please help me if you can.
p.s - I have already checked iDoubs but it failed and always shows some unknown problem and for that reason, doesn't allow me to connect to anyone.
ALSO : The suggested method I have found is via HTTP Live Streaming. But, in that too, I have multiple doubts.
1.) I need to find how do I upload my video from iPhone to the HTTP server from where I would be broadcasting?
2.) Can you please post something related to setting up the server? How do I feed the video to the FFMPEG Server?
Mainly, I need to find the upload method. I am right now simply sending hex-code in the form of NSDATA to the server and I am stuck there. The main problem is, It is live. How do I handle that?
It would be best, if you could help me make the iDoubs work properly.
Thank you so much for any kind of support!
have a look on this how to implement video chat in iphone But before starting you must have a IMS server up & running.
here is the live video chat framework what you are looking for. Its easy and simple to implement for face to face video chat. I have already tried this. Its working very fine. Great thing about this framework is multiple platform support.
Tokbox : https://tokbox.com/platform

Sample Code:

Edit:
Here is the article explaining opentok using parse.

HTTP live streaming is primarily an approach for adaptive streaming from server-to-client. For client-to-server rather go for traditional streaming. There exists an open library for streaming, see this question.
Whilst it is possible to facetime to do two-way chat, it is not certain that you will be able to using public iOS APIs. That said, I have implemented one-way live streaming for iPhone and the difficult part was not the core streaming itself, but encoding of the payload. You will be able to do H264 in hardware and AAC / iLBC in software.
How you want to feed this to the FFMPEG depends on your transport, possibly changing from 'file' H264 frames to 'streaming' H264. Check out the H264 frame types if you implement frame dropping; reconfiguring the H264 encoder on-the-fly is not possible to my knowledge, but restarting with fresh parameters typically does not take more than a second or so.
Did you attempt to play back a live resource while capturing? That is a good starting point. If you come across an open API for H264 encoding, please post it here ;-)
how to set the video format of the iPhone camera captured? I think that can be mov,mp4, h.2x , because iPhone can play it, but can not find API to set the video format to recording .....
also want upload the video to youtube, anyone know where can find a good open source code for this purpose, I think that this feature will be commonly and it must be done by other coder....just want save time for this purpose ..
thanks for your help
use gdata is enough
Using gdata is the way to go as Robin mentioned above. Here is a great article that outlines what you need to do and provides a great set of source code to get you started.
Hope this helps!!
Does anyone have a solution or a possible open library that can be used to stream WMA radio station streams on iPhone?
I know for a fact that there are Apps out which are able to do this.
Any pointers on where to start?
In order to play WMA, look into using the ffmpeg library. I'm not sure if it can stream as well, but I'm pretty sure it can play the format.
So I am creating an iPhone app that records video using AVFoundation and I need to be able to stream that to a RTMP Media Server. Any ideas/thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Jim
use Adobe flash media live encoder
Yes, this is possible by intercepting the actual captured frames and throw it into the network. Destination could be another iPhone, Android based who's able to play H264 / AAC, any computer, or streaming server like crtmpserver
Or to make your life easier you can visit www.evostream.com they offer this functionality just the way you want it customized.
Hope this helps
Take a look at this iPhone project https://github.com/cleitaum/LiveShare
I am working on an application that will stream music from a server of mine from an iPhone application.
This is my first iPhone app so I am a bit confused :
What would be the best way to do
this?
Is there something already built in
that I could use, like a MP3 player
that I just need to point toward the
correct server?
Do I need a streaming server to do
so?
I'm relatively new to Objective-C/Cocoa (touch), but I have read an article on the cocoawithlove site titled "Streaming and playing an MP3 stream" and tested the sample code on my iPhone and it works perfectly. I don't know about the licensing or anything, if you would be able to use it, but I'm sure someone or even you can figure that out.
Sorry again for not being able to provide any more information or even a link. This is my first answer on SO and cannot post hyperlinks :(
