Java SVG based IPTV Solution

[muthulingam Jayakanthan]

Hi,

I am requested to develop a linux PC based STB to develope a java application which supports multicast video streaming and Video on Demand RTSP streams.

I understand that we can use a

browser based or
application based or
SVG rendering Engine based application.

If I want to create a SVG rendering based aplication on a linux machine using open tools, can someone help me to guid how to start and what are the tools I need. What is the open Media API I can use to stream ?

In the end I need to develop a application which supports video streaming and SVG rendering. How java would help me or Am I in a wrong track.

Please some body help

I don't quite understand what you're trying to do. If you stream video, how does SVG fit into the picture?

I don't understand what either SVG or ECMAScript have to do with video playback. The page you linked to mentions neither.
