Hi,
I have downloaded vidblaster trial and using the studio version. Looks really great.
Some quick background.I do distance learning, using Microsoft Live Meeting. Altho LM can receive streaming video, latency is a real problem. LM uses PowerPoint slides to embed a variety of materials such as slides and DVDs.
There is an addon to PowerPoint called PFCPro (playsforcertain.com) that accepts a wide variety of sources ie. web cam, video capture card, TV tuner, FireWire DV, or other video device you can now insert them directly in your presentation. I am trying to figure out how to connect the output of Vidblaster to the PowerPoint/PFCPro input. This will eliminate the latency problem, I believe.
Any thoughts? Thanks.

You can use the Streamer module to ouput video from VidBlaster to the virtual video device, and select that as input in LM. But if LM introduces the latency, this won't fix your problem. Why not stream directly from VidBlaster and view the result on your own server?

Time passes. So, here's where I am. Live Meeting can receive streams from a url. I have that (tformance.com). How do I stream from VidBlaster to my url. I assume I have to embed a player in the url? Thanks. (I'm such a dunce technically and really appreciate the help)
