Is there a how-to I can follow to help me in selecting technologies and in implementing my solution?
the exact behaviour I would like to implement is as follows:
1) page loads 2) webcam starts recording 3) user hits button 4) webcam stops recording 5) video is stored on my server
I have an MVC3 app I need to enhance with video capture functionality. I don't yet understand all the pieces involved but it seems I may have to choose between Flash (which is not supported on iPhones and iPads) and Silverlight.
it also seems I need a server-side component like the Flash Media Server. Honestly I'm overwhelmed with all the choices (having to learn ActionScript, Flex, what not).
