Streaming
Well...i've been working some months on an ambitious secret project of mine, which essentially is going to be a mix between activeCollab and Adobe Acrobat/ConnectNow. Now, i've actually already come quite a long way with the project, but then i've run into problems:

The project is going to have a conferencial-meeting room (ConnectNow alike), it's all based on AJAX-technologies.

Now, I also want to have a webcam chat feature (conferencing), but almost all flash webcam chats that i know of have some underlaying software installed on the server (Such as Adobe Media Server or the Open Source alternative, Red5. But as stated, these requires the beforementioned software installed on the server, and almost all non-vps hosted users don't have the possibility to do such.

I've then begun looking at some PHP/HTML5/Ajax alternatives for video/video/sound streaming modules, and found xmoov, but this also requires itself to be installed either as a standalone server or on an already configured server. The problems are the same as above.

Regarding what i initially really wanted was a way to make a Peer-to-Peer connection, that doesn't rely on underlaying server technologies except for Apache/PHP. Initially, i found Adobe Stratus, which supposedly should be able to do, what i want to do, but not only does this rely on flash, but it's also in beta (for god knows how long - since 2008), and thus still useless.

So....does anyone know any script or software that can do what i want to do? Whilst making use of only common server technologies (Apache/PHP). Or will i have to wait for about 13 years for HTML5, or cancel the entire module?

Cheers!
