How to keep presentation slides in sync

Hi,

First of all, I am a beginner with Wowza and video streaming.

I need to sync presentation slides with a live stream at specific times. I am using Flash Media Live Encoder and activated the timecode feature, but as much as I can log the timecodes to the console output by using this code (How to get the time info of live stream), I can’t take that metadata and inject it into the live stream. I know there is this post (How to inject cue points or metadata) that illustrates how to add cue points/metadata, but it looks like it needs to be called from the client side app. I’d like a way to continuously add this metadata to the stream and be able to access it with JW Player.

Also, as this may be of interest, the live streams are published as both HDS and HLS.

Thank you!

Marc

Hi Marc,

At this time most people are using a Flash based client side application that will display the slides when a particular cue-point is encountered in the stream. This is along with the inject cue-points method above.

I cannot find any examples of using JW Player. You may want to post on the JW forum for that.
