Hey guys,We need (at least) 10 people to help alpha test my heroku add-on. We provide a service that allows you to integrate video recording, uploading, transcoding and streaming into your web app. If you have a Heroku account and think you have a use for our product (or are just curious to play around) email us or reply to this thread. Thanks everyone!help [at] cameratag.com
In 2012 there were almost 30k "non-employer" businesses making more than $1MM / yr in revenue (see below). Some, if not many, of these must be in tech.What are some of the most successful one-man tech companies you know?* 26,744 had sales between $1 million and $2.49 million* 1,723 had sales between $2.5 million and $4.99 million*368 had sales of $5 million or more.
One of the sticking points in our sales process has been that our video recording feature was dependent on the user having a webcam to work (duh). While this may seem like an obvious limitation it didn't stop us from getting the "what about people without webcams" question from marketing folks. Until recently our answer has been that users can record videos on their computer (using desktop...
Just a quick note to let you know that we just unveiled support for mobile web video recording / uploading. (iOS 6.0+ and Android 2.2+). You can check it out by pointing your mobile browser to CameraTag.com and clicking on the "click here to record" box.
For all you webtech geeks- WebRTC soon to come :)

Sorry for the delayed response. Don't know how I missed you question. Happy chat about the tech:
For now the recorder base is a flash app that has a JS API. We built a stock HTML interface that consumes that JS API but our users are free to replace or exclude that HTML if they so please. As soon as we can reliably record a WebRTC stream we will swap out the Flash :)
The server side is built in Rails running on AWS (Beanstalk) hosted on Passenger and NGINX. In addition to the web interface, There is a REST API for accessing info about your recordings. We can generate h.264s and png thumbnails of your recordings in any resolution and frame rate you want- our transcoding is handled by Zencoder and/or Amazon Elastic Transcoder (depending on requirements).
Hope that helps- did you have any specific questions?
We auto detect activity (change in frame-to-frame) in the the microphone and camera. It means the user has to spend 2 seconds waving to their camera before recording but it also means they don't have to mess with camera / mic settings.

CT should work in all major browsers that can run flash. Right now (because of the flash dependency) most mobile devices are not supported. As soon as we get WebRTC polished we'll be 100% HTML and will work in most modern mobile browsers.

Sorry about the typos in the site copy (we're fixing them now). (this is why we ask for feedback before launching) :). To answer questions:
1. Transcoding. We transcode the videos into h.264 and generate thumbnails. At the PRO level you can have as many outputs as you would like at as many resolutions / frame rates as you want.
2. We will host the videos on AWS for you for free as long as you maintain an account.
3. 5 mins
4. Always think of TokBox as a live streaming service (i.e. video chat) not so much a recording service. I know they allow you to record chats to a server, but it's not their focus and integration is a bit more involved as a result.
5. No. Unfortunately, WebRTC isn;t quite ready for primetime when it comes to recording. As soon as it is- we'll go 100% HTML.
6. The homepage has a recorder built in but the best way to play around is sign up for a free account and put a recorder in you site (no CC necessary to record up to 20 videos)
Thanks for the interest!
Just about to launch a new service to simply the process of recording videos from your users' webcams. Would love your thoughts.-Chrisp.s. Right now we're using flash to record with an HTML interface. As soon as WebRTC works well enough we'll switch over to a full HTML solution.
