Hi,

Suppose I have a server-side component which generates video on-the-fly. For
example, it could be a component which creates a short sequence of video from a
fly through of a 3D model. I want to be able to have a client browse to my
website, click on a link and view the video. Clicking on the link would create
a new video from the 3D model and stream it to a flash video player within the
webpage. I want the video generation to be done server-side.

Is this possible by writing a custom application for Flash media server? Do I
have to write this component in server-side ActionScript or could I write it in
C++ and some-how interface to it from a server-side ActionScript application?

As you can guess, I'm a bit of a novice at all this flash stuff but I'm
working on a project which requires it.

Thanks a lot!

Nick.
