[Nfb-history] Accessible Video Stream Recorders and VBrick

[Peter Donahue]

Hello everyone,

    I'd be curious to hear about any applications capable of recording video
streams from the Internet that are usable by a blind person preferably free
ones. The ones I've played with require you to mark off an area on your
computer screen to display the video prior to recording the stream.

    Just as stand-alone digital-audio recorders can record audio similar 
devices and appliances exist to permit one to generate and record live video 
and save it for later playback.One such appliance I'm aware of  is the 
system marketed by VBrick Systems. This is a stand-alone device that can 
capture live video via a camera and stream it to the Web. A VBrick appliance 
was used to stream the video of last year's national convention. Does anyone 
have information about this device and is it usable by a blind person?You 
can learn more bout VBrick and its products by visiting:

If anyone knows of streaming video recording software and stand-alone 
appliances that allows one to record live
Internet video streams that are usable by a blind person I'll appreciate 
that
very much. All the best for a safe and fun holiday weekend.
