[MLB-WIRELESS] P2P Text/video/Audio chat?

[Dean Collins]

I don't think you can do it serverless (btw david, I think you still
need a server for xmpp - this is what http://www.LiveNRLchat.com and
http://www.LiveAFLchat.com is built on top of.

If you can run  a central server (doesn't need internet connection)
check our Red5 which is the opensource version of Flash media Server.

This does text/video for sure.

 
Cheers,
Dean

One interesting approach is using XMPP's Serverless Messaging
(http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0174.html) often called Bonjour or
Zeroconf chat (it uses mDNS to discover clients).

Works quite well on single broadcast subnets, though I don't know if
they're managed to combine the Jingle audio/video extensions with it
yet. Works out of the box with Pidgin and with iChat on Mac as well as a
number of other XMPP/Jabber clients.

Cheers,
David
