[QUOTE="DieBagger, post: 622594, member: 56421"] I think so as well, also there isn't really any advantage of doing so imo. gemx webservice needs the same type of webserver as ipimp (one that can serve asp .net). Also the point of this would be that you only need one webserver (on a singleseat) on which all services are running. Currently you would need 3 webservers if you install the webservices/bigkev's webserver and ipimp. This would certainly allow more flexability since you could have the webservice run on a different machine than your websites, also it would be possible to support multi-seat environments. But I think it would be neccessary to have some sort of master/slave setup with webservices because you only want one entry point for the user or programs using the webservice (see drawing 2 ;)): [ATTACH]62788.vB[/ATTACH] Also how do you bring the video (not tv since it's streamed in rtsp anyways, offline video files) to the "master" webservice/website and where is the encoding/streaming done? Your webservices are awesome but at the current state they're only for us enthusiasts imo because it's a little tricky to get everything working (specially when you're on MediaPortal RC3) and even if you do the website (as you said lots of times) is more a proof of concept. [B]Different WebServices[/B] Would it be good to have (or at least plan for) different types of webservices then the SOAP that is generated by asp .net (e.g. JSON or REST based)? Afaik on some platforms it is difficult to access soap (e.g. iPhone). [B]It should be easy for a regular MP user to install this[/B] The ideal imo would be one installer where the user can choose to install [LIST] [*]Only webservices [*]only WebApplication (e.g. ipimp) [*]Singleseat (WebService and WebApp on the same webserver) [/LIST] [B]Authentification[/B] Imo its very important to have authentification also for webservices because I don't want to have a publicly available webservice that anyone can access. @cheezey: For me one on the most exciting aspects of the whole thing is video/tv streaming (I think I'm not alone with this ;)) so I'd have a few questions about the smoothstreaming framework if I may: [LIST] [*]What kind of video formats are possible with this? Is it also possible to stream hd (tv/videos)? [*]What's the lag on this/how good is the performance? [*]How much CPU does the transcoding use? [/LIST] :thx: [/QUOTE]
