I am trying to work on an app that streams videos from a website into an app. So, it's like watching those videos in the app, not the website. How would you do this? Can someone point me to a tutorial or explain it to me?
Well depends on what framework you are developing for. You need to provide more info if you want real answers.
For example, if you are using the native sdk to develop for the playbook (C/C++), info regarding streaming video can be found here:
https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/native/documentation/video_playback_overview_1935223_11.html
May not be for streaming specifically, but its a start.
If you are developing and AIR application (Flex), well then thats library question. Just off the top of my head, you would probably use the NetStream class. Documentation found here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/NetStream.html
Again, need more info to give you a good answer.

I am going through webRTC for Android. I need to develop video and audio chat application. I read many things in webRTC. I am confused where to start with. I did not get proper link.Many said that refer below site.
https://webrtc.org/reference/getting-started
But I could not find this page itself. Please help me to build webRTC for Android development.
Note: I want opensource code. I don't want any licenced libraries.
Thank you for the help.
Check this, and you can start by studying this sample android app.
I searched many documents but didn't find any exact solution for my problem. I want to implement audio call and screen sharing in Android native application using webrtc without using any third party sdk.
I found one demo example i.e apprtc but it supports only audio call. How to implement screen sharing too?
This answer may be irrelevant for the OP, since the question is very old.
Anyway, for anyone in the future searching for something similar, check this commit in webrtc repo. It adds a screen capturer for Android.
I'm just learingn mobile web development and thinking about task:
Is there a way to make a videostream betwen iOS, Android and Browser. What architecture and technology it should use. I already read this quetion on SO Peer-to-Peer video from iOS to Android? but there is nothing about browsers.
If it can't be p2p and crossplatfom at the same time. I thought i shoud use Red5 server or etc. or Xmpp
So I'm asking your advice and opinion here. Any information would be valuable
Yes, You can !!!
There is new technology enforced by google is WEBRTC
It is stands for "web real time communication" and is an opensource project funded by google.
It is also support Android/iPhone native application.
I am working on it and got success say 60%.
Video clarity is good but audio is choppy.
You can find source code from Here
Discussion with community Here
You can see live demo Here
NOTE:
It is ongoing project and has not been stable yet. Google team is working on.Currently it is working on latest Chrome,FF and opera. IE has not given support yet.
Yes,the open source solution should be WEBRTC technology,please check it on official website: webrtc.org
I read an interesting article about Web-to-App interoperability. It states:
Android and iOS allow installed applications to respond to custom URIs
from the web. Since I’m not as familiar with iOS, I will only cover
how Android allows this to work, and how you can use this technique to
your advantage. There are several use cases for allowing your app to
handle custom URIs. The first one I’ll cover is simply launching your
application.
Basically, a link (clicked on a mobile browser) can trigger a specific action with an installed App.
I found it intriguing and I realized that the Google Play Market itself works the same way with market:// links.
My question is:
Can you provide (other) live examples in Android? And in Iphone?
I'm looking for good cases of this kind of "Web to App Interoperability" with both Android and Iphone applications.
Extra question:
Can you suggest a tutorial or reference to do this in Iphone?
Thank you very much.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
For the extra question, have a look here or here.
I know Spotify uses this. I believe Facebook does too.
For my question, time is more important than perfection. I need any advice you can quickly give me about embedding a video in a mobile website which is targeted for Android devices. Since I have only very little time for research (for the first research, only today, but of course the implementation will follow later), I need any advice you can give to me, no matter how vague or imperfect it may be.
Here is the scenario:
A video must be embedded in a mobile website, using HTML.
Only Android clients are relevant, because iPhones and non-Android devices will be directed to another URL.
Preferably, the video should be integrated into the rest of the web page. In case an external player needs to be opened, it would be preferable if that player has a "return to web page" button of some kind that will return the user to the web page.
The customer is aware that this will not work perfectly on all devices, but we want to find a solution that works well at least on the more modern devices.
If you have any experience regarding this field, please let me know of it. Here are some areas that might be helpful:
HTML code that you have found to be working
Encoding specifics regarding the video (e.g. which codecs to use or not to use)
Other StackOverflow questions regarding this topic which I have overseen in my haste (sorry about that, time is sparse for me right now)
Since I can only choose one of the replies to be the answer, my choice for that has to be very arbitrary.
So far, I have found these two other StackOverflow questions, which cover parts of this topic:
What video format will play on all Android devices?
Embed video and play on android
What about embedding flash? Not all android devices have it but the ones have it should be able to play properly encoded mp4 video
For video encoding check http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html
