I'd think a Java applet would be the most browser

not to mention possibly non-free if sun's java is used. (use gij for
making applet if you want it to be assured free.). If thats not an
issue please go ahead and use sun's java.
Even though Sun claims java is released under GPL not all components
come through GPL and the whole exercise will be eyewash till
everything comes through under gpl. (thats why it continues to be in
non-free sections of distros).

Gajendra

In this case it's important to distinguish between the various levels of 
freedom involved in this discussion:

1. The freedom to write and distribute the applet and make the source 
code available under a FOSS licence.

2. The freedom to run the applet.

3. The freedom to compile the applet.

Whatever Java you use, you can always make freedom 1 (to make and 
distribute the applet and source) available to your users.

Freedoms 2 and 3 (to run and to compile) may be related, since they're 
both dependent on the underlying libraries and classes that specific 
versions of Java make available for development and deployment.  I 
don't really know whether or not all the Java audio/multimedia 
libraries that are needed to achieve the OP's task are available in the 
free Java implementation(s).  However, unless the underlying classes 
are protected by patents, I'd assume that all Java versions will 
eventually have them regardless of their current availability.

Assuming the required multimedia stuff isn't patent protected I'd advise 
Narendra to go the Java route even if his users can't currently use a 
totally free Java implementation to run the applet.  The applet will 
remain FOSS, and as and when the free Java achieves multimedia 
compatibility with Sun Java his users can make a choice on whether to 
continue using Sun Java or to use a free JRE.

Thanks for all inputs. I will go with Java / plug-in mechanism, For me the
sharing of content and creating / recreating the contents in collaborative
framework is matter more. I will try to avoid non-free and patented
libraries. I have started learning Java Applet, so i will get more
information for exact implementation and free/non-free issue.

[ilugd] Audio capture in browser !! need suggestion ??

2008-09-12 Thread narendra sisodiya
I need to record audio for my educational application . which I have to sent
to the server for storage. Playing can be done by vlc or any other plugin ,
so that is not a issue for a while.

Audio capture in browser !! need suggestion ??
* Flash based ?? will that be free of cost to use that ?? will it output ogg
??
* Java/Applet based ?? any security issue?? well only small percentage of
user will record the audio so this can be option ?? Again any know
implementation ?? will i be able to control with javascript ??
* using a third party plugin/embedded object for recording ??
* Writing my own Firefox and IE and chrome plugin ??
* Developing desktop application for recording and trigger from browser and
having proper synchronisation using server. both will run  independent way
but server will transmit sync information between these two entities. !!
* Developing my application with XMPP/Jabber protocol !!

Remember I just need to record voice of user and save to my server which
user can download or play it in browser . I am trying my best effort to
avoid flash. also i want my streaming to be on ogg format ??

Look at http://osflash.org/red5 although it`s flash based, Not sure
anything pure FLOSS based exists

http://www.jsresources.org/faq_applets.html#applet_record , also see the 
answer to the next question.

I'd think a Java applet would be the most browser- and 
platform-independent way to achieve voice recording in a browser.  
There are tons of existing Java libraries and applets available on 
the 'net for audio capture, though locating a FOSS one may take some 
work.
