P2P in Flash?!

October 6th, 2008  |  Published in Uncategorized

I am currently working on a web radio project “Live Show Street” which is developing by a group of BScCM students. It is basically a virtual world where people can be web-Js, real-time broadcast to the public. It is built on Flash.

One of the most challenging part is the bandwidth problem since the system requires a lot of real-time audio, video transfers. So what I think of is using a P2P method to distribute the contents. I don’t know if it is supported in Flash but I ‘ve heard that there were websites using P2P to load videos on web pages. And tonight I ‘ve just done a quick search and with surprise P2P will really be supported in the coming Flash Player 10!

Hope FMS will support it soon.

Just a snapshot of my life

October 3rd, 2008  |  Published in Uncategorized

Now I’m setting in CCCU campus in Kowloon Bay. I just ate breakfast with Ca and she is now attending leature.

Here the enrivroment for working is quite nice: with wind, plants, seeing the students walking below… Just a little bit annoying is the wifi, which I need to steal others to use… I have no idea why here is no CityU wifi for students… And no power too (Although my MacBook tells me that there are still 4 hours before it sleeps).

Actually I’m tired now since I haven’t sleep last night. Yup, I was working on my simple game design which should be handed in last month…

I am wondering why being a university student there are so many works to do. Now I am attending six courses, each course has at least one project. If I add my freelance, part-time jobs/projects together, I should never relax.

OK, I have just wasted too much time here. Better work hard now.
