hi everyone this is regarding our 8th sem project. we have been asked to develop an application similar to microsoft's net-meeting. the difference is that this is for educational purposes n shud be preferably on Linux. something like an online classroom where the teacher and the student are interacting over the internet. we are to develop an application which works on any browser. he has asked us to give him a draft of how we propose to develop it. which format of video(mpeg3,4,avi,.....)we can use so that we can achieve real time interaction between the two. he did not mention if it is to be broadcasted to many or a point 2 point interaction. but i'm guessing it is a broadcast since it is a lecture. all i need to know is how we can go about doin it. since i dont have much experience in programming i'm havin some startin problem. all kinds of input are welcome. thanku
