Which is the best programming language to build a video streaming website?

Do you have any programming experience?

PHP is the most used, but there's a lot of others options such as Python or Ruby.

python is the best programming language for video streaming

For me PHP is the most suited programming language to use for web services and web applications because of its RAPID software architecture.

php is enough

What type of site will it be? Are you planning on building a tube style site or a business site with a daily/weekly/monthly instructional video, other, etc..?

It's hard to give you solid advice without knowing more details. However, in generic terms, if you do know a programming language well, then customizing a script in your preferred language would give you the most control. I'm not sure which language is best, but I do know of many PHP based video sites that do a tone of daily traffic and most of the top commercial scripts out there are written in PHP.

As to server type, I would recommend at least a VPS so you have control over your environment as many Shared plans don't include the required modules for streaming video, unless you find a specialized video host or offload the videos to a CDN that supports streaming.

Good luck.

Ok you don't actually stream video - you stream single images and show them one after the other which animates them. This is how videos work.
So what you need to do is have something that shows an image on your website - go with The Official Microsoft ASP.NET Site easiest way forward I would say, put an image control on the page with the source being the picture you want to see. Get next picture change the source to next picture and repeat.

Have a look at these:
1. Video Streaming with ASP.NET SignalR and HTML5
2. Asynchronously streaming video with ASP.NET Web API
3. HTTP 206 Partial Content In ASP.NET Web API - Video File Streaming
4. Video Streaming to a client app using Asp.Net Web API
5. The Embedded Streaming Video Control Suite for ASP.Net
6. Live Smooth Streaming

PHP is the best to build video streaming website..

Well you must search through WebRTC and Wowza

I've found a video streaming software called Streamhash(streamhash.com). They are using PHP video script. I've downloaded and using their demo version. It's cool till now. If anybody know about this software, kindly give me some suggestion.

best suggestion is php programming language.

Yes, finally I've decided to build it in PHP.

As per my view, all the technologies like Java, php, dot net, etc. are perfect to make video streaming website. It depends on your requirements and budget. If you have low budget for website you can go for PHP technology.

I play with php, so i prefer PHP always

As my opinion is that you can make a great and stunning video streaming website by the combination of Java, PhP, ASP.net, C# etc. Different section need different language. Thanks.

First thing, the decisive intel you need to pick a host is how many traffic you expect. This will determine if you should opt for a shared hosting, a managed hosting or a VPS.Shared hosting will be free but they will have a very low performance.

Second thing is, where the videos would come from?
If you will be using the likes of YouTube and Vimeo, then, any regular hosting will do. Shared hosting are the cheapest, but I would suggest using at least a managed WP hosting service to guarantee a minimum performance.

Third thing is, the protection of your videos. You may want to protect your streamed videos, to prevent anyone from copying them and use them outside of your website’s premiss

PHP is the most suitable language for video streaming website.

Video streaming websites can be used to get high amount of traffic to the blog if your videos have high quality contents.

1. You can use the following guidelines to create a video streaming website:
2. Register your website's domain name, however the costs involved with registration of a domain name are similar across various providers.
3. Investigate Web hosting services that specialize in high-bandwidth websites
4. Design the website from scratch or either use a template
5. Add the appropriate code to your website to stream your video content.

As per my suggestion JAVA is the best for the video steaming..

I use the help of some free website templates and website builder. It is very easy, you can do some basic websites this way pretty fast and you don't have to pay any money for it. But if you need some more reliable and complex websites, I would not recommend this method

Php is my hightly recommendation.

PHP script application will NOT work in all hosting scenarios. Ruby would be better . you can find more about this here .firstly need a solution for smooth streaming globally at various internet speeds. Different Device & Internet speeds require different formats and size parameters for streaming . here you will find how.
