Flash-based Audio and Video Recording and Playback
This site is designed to help you record and play back audio from a web page, using the Flash plugin and Red5 server. I assume that you know that Red5 is an open-source implementation of the protocol that the Flash Media Server uses to stream audio to and from a SWF client.
These samples show sample implementations of the protocol, and the sample code is here for your reference.
Please contact me directly at dhoopingarner@gmail.com if you have questions, or if you need any additional information.
Hire Me I can create customized versions of the recorder, and help to integrate it with your website. Contact me to talk about your project.
Look, Ma - no server!
Version 10.1 of the Flash plugin allows you to record directly to memory, without the need to connect to a FMS/Red5 server.
