[Red5devs] Creating a composite of webcam videos

[Piers Cowburn]

Yeah, I thought that, except the problem is that eventually we might  
have 1000 or so videos, and I'm pretty sure the connection/flash  
player/browser won't stand up to that! I figured the best way to  
approach it would be to comp them all together, each individual video  
will be tiny so it should be no problem to have a lots of them in there.
