IBMs DeveloperWorks startet eine dreiteilige Serie mit dem Titel: Setting up your own on-demand video site with PHP. (kostenlose Registrierung erforderlich)

Das Ganze basiert auf CakePHP.

In Part 1 of a three-part series on creating an on-demand video site with PHP, we begin by looking at the different flavors of digital video and their particular nuances. When creating video for the Web, the overarching issue you need to keep in mind is whether you want your video to be small and easy to download or whether you want it to be the best quality possible. We’ll also look at converting your video to the Flash Video (FLV) format and examine some options for streaming. There’s not a lot of coding to be done at this stage, but we do have to get the framework installed and set up the database.
