Chatroulette, Flash Player 10's peer-to-peer and Wowza

Hi,

I’m reading that Chatroulette is a combination of Flash Player 10’s peer-to-peer ability and the Wowza Media Server.

Is it true? How do we can make this combination if Wowza doesn’t support P2P (RTMFP)?

Thanks guys!

The P2P aspect will not work unless the user has forwarded a port on their router (or has an Internet addressable IP address). Wowza doesn’t support RTMFP at this time, so I’m not exactly sure how it works. But, I imaging that you would test if a P2P connection could be made, and if not, fallback to a regular Wowza chat connection. I believe that’s how it works with FMS as well.
