Thanks for the offer and advice djayfx. I thought about using Netstream.publish
to record. But I would have to do that for all the streams in the presentation.
This is clear enough, but then to make the presentation on demand content for
later viewing is whats tricky. I would have to build components to listen to
the streams on playback and when an event is triggered, lets say a chat event,
it would have to listen and respond accordingly. I believe this is how
Macromedia Breeze does it. Unless they just have one stream and embed all the
chat and slide show events into one stream, which seems more efficient. I was
hoping there was a more turnkey solution for this.

i dont know of any, but why dont you publish the stream to your fc server with
the record param?
you'll end up with the .flv file in your flashcom app root.

if you need a developer for this i might be interested.

search the tutorials round here on macromedia.com, i think peldi shows you how
to build a broadcaster which also involves changing and cutting streams. might
be what you need for building an agreggated stream that you can play it back as
is later.

Curious: Is there a way to merge multiple streams? Like in an audio
conference, I can record individual streams--audio from single microphone. IS
there a way to record merged audio streams from multiple users?
