app to record and play video

[Piyush D]

Hi,

I'm trying to build an app that records videos using webcam and plays it on demand. Are there any resources/documentations on how to do this in Django?

Look at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/ref/models/fields/#filefield which
indicates how to collect and store files.

Django, as far as the front-end is concerned, has little to do with actually capturing the video.  This is going to be on the frontend with your browser.  Depending on your audience, they might not have browser web capture available and will have to use a browser plugin like flash or silverlight, as mentioned in http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/getusermedia/intro/.  Otherwise, follow that link and see if that'd suit your needs.

@Mike: FileField can be used for uploading video files. I want to use the user's webcam to capture a video and then I will use FileField to store it.

@Kelly: Thanks for the link, I'll try to use it in django templates and see if it works.
