    No No youtube.

    I mean, like a live news channel or something.

    uploading to a third party and then embeding onto my site is kinda hectic.

    You need to have huge hardware that supports real live video. It isn't that easy to create an online video stream!

    Yeah, and it will chew up your bandwidth quicker than you can pay for it (almost) - honestly, third party video host and embed - why wouldnt you ? Plus you get the added bonus of extra traffic generated from YouTube via the site itself and SEO which you can monetize.

    video camera -> encoding pc with an osprey capture card and flash media encoder application -> streams to server (buy 1 month at influxis) -> server streams to webpage(use influxis video broadcaster application)
