streaming webcam
 

for a solo girl site, how do you recommend i go about getting a streaming live webcam feed featuring my girl?

how often will she be on? and for how long?

twice a week at most...for about an hour

well what i would do is sign up with www.camz.com
she can do two weekly live cam shows and plus you can give your members tons of extra free content!
its great for retention!

not sure if this is what i need, mandy...that, or either i'm stupid and just can't find what i'm looking for...what i want is for my members to be able to watch my girl live on webcam for an hour or so on my own site...

What Mandy is saying is that her best bet would be to join a site like that. Because the technology isnt readily available. If you dont want to join a cam site then maybe use msn

yes....she can do an hour long show on camz...its a cam network. each of the girls on the network does at least 1 hr long show each week. all of the members of each of the girls' sites get access to all of the shows. so in addition to her members wtching her, members of other people's sites will be watching. so you have a wonderful opportunity to get new members. and you already know that they spend money on porn! and you don't have to worry about paying for bandwidth.
i do 2 camz shows a week and i know a lot of girls on gfy do shows there as well. its great for retention as well as getting new members!

um...well what do sites like katesplayground and nextdoor nikki and such use then?

i would stream it using windows media player

ran across this: http://www.webcamxp.com but haven't check it out yet

what about something where i can use a camcorder? or is it all the same thing...?

do you want to pay for the bandwidth or something? lol

Thanks for the heads up, Mandy :)

Mike, if you are intrested in using an outside program *recommended* hit me up when you can, if nothing else I can tell you how it works :)

just trying to get ideas...i dunno what i'm doing :P thanks for the ideas though, i'll definitely keep them in mind...

of course!
i love camz. i think its great stuff for a single girl site!

You have two options

1) Listen to Mandy and sign up to a Cam Network, get free bandwidth (I assume), some free content for you members, and a load of publicity.

or

2) Set-up a Dedicated server for relaying a video feed from the cam, find the software (which isn't easily avilable, you'll probably end up having to pretty much hand code a video relay server or pay big bucks), manage the server and pay for the bandwidth (which will be pretty high).

If you want to fuck about trying to taylor free software then Helix DNA Media Server and VideoLAN PLayer are two possible option.

If your looking to stump up the cash I belive there is a windows media server which will do what you are looking for

oh and just a warning I got VideoLAN to do exactly what you are looking for, but it was about as stable as the US economy
