This video covers a web service that I’ve been using lately called Bits on the Run. The service has fantastic support (with even the famous JW from the JW Player offering assistance if needed) and good documentation. If you want to build a web 2.0 app with video and aren’t interested in managing the encoding of multiple formats, BotR is for you.
I look at searching and getting detailed information from the bits on the run web service. If you’re planning on using Bits on the Run for live video uploads, I would encourage using the flash uploader on their downloads page.
Instead of JSON, the web service is XML based, so there’s some references to using SimpleXML as well.
If all the jumping around is getting to you, grab the source code from google code and follow along.
