Abstract:
This web-based video streaming application was
developed based-on Vidiscript v0.43 (a free
Youtube Clone Script) and installed on lecturer's
laptop as a video streaming server (with free
open source Linux Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala
operating system). This video streaming
application can be accessed by students (using an
Internet Browser on his/her Linux Ubuntu or
Windows XP laptop) through a wireless ad hoc
network (without a support by an access point).
Vidiscript installation on Linux Ubuntu 9.10
need additional support from some free open
source software, such as LAMP Server (Linux,
Apache, MySQL, and PHP), ioncube loader for
linux, encoder (transcoder) FFMPEG,
MEncoder, and LAME. The site settings and
account management of this application can be
setup by the admin server (lecturer) so it can
help and support a multimedia-based class
activity. A lecture can upload some lecture video
files and manage right access for his/her
students. As a client, a student can see a
streaming video and upload some video file
(register student) to be shared by others.
