Question

Basically as my flash program is running I would like it to take the current sounds playing and continuously write that stream to a server. So that another user can then listen to that stream. Basically like a web radio.

This is my naive guess of what to do.

client:
  capture current playing sounds
  convert to mp3
  write to mp3 file on server

other client:
  load that mp3 and play the streaming song

Anyone familiar with a solution to this? code examples? I have looked but just don’t know enough about Action Script 3 to get anywhere far :/

Note: I am not capturing sound from a microphone, but the current playing sound. (I have written a simple waveform analyzer that reacted to the playing sounds)

Thanks
