You may need FFMPEG to stream video clips on web servers. I suggest you look at my tutorial explaining how to install it http://habboxforum.com/showthread.ph...ghlight=FFMPEG . :)

Thanks for that, couldn't i just have somthing like YouTube to show the videos ?

I.E: The script not the website.

Thats what FFMPEG does if you install the FFMPEG-PHP extension you can use that to stream the videos in a similar way to YouTube, once you install it take a look at the FFMPEG project sites and the documentation on how to stream files, encode them, etc. :)

Thanks, +rep :)

EDIT: Need to spread.

You need to install additional plug-ins most of the time. (The visitor).

Yeh true, that's what i got :P

You don't have to install FFMPEG to have a video playing on your site. If you use the correct <object> and <embed> code, then it will work fine, and will use Windows Media Player to handle the video.

I don't know where all that FFMPEG stuff came from.

upload it on youtube then get the code off there..

I mentioned FFMPEG incase he wanted the videos to be like YouTube (using .flv videos, etc).

I want too do like a random video will be broadcast when the page loads.
