Dating Software with Video

December 9th, 2008

Every dating site needs some form of video. Whether it’s live video instant messenger or the ability for your users to upload video profiles. Dating sites have progressed so much since the days of a photo and a profile. These days members searching for dates want as much information on their match as possible. By adding video profiles as well as video IM, your members will be able to determine more about their potential match before contacting them. Photos are so one sided but adding a video profile gives the member a 3 dimensional way of gaining more information on their possible match.

Wazzum provides both video options in our dating software and social software. We use FFMPEG as main video converter. FFMPEG is a complete solution to record, convert and stream audio and video. It works the say way as YouTube in that you upload your video and the FFMPEG will convert it to a streaming format. This allows members to record video and audio and store the files for streaming by other members. If you are going to use our dating software or social software and you want to take advantage of the video converter, then you will have to have FFMPEG installed on your server. This is a free download and can be installed relatively easy. If you don’t have FFMPEG on your server then contact your hosting provider and they can install it for you.

Wazzum dating software also includes the live video instant messenger and live video chat. This allows members of your dating site or social site to communicate one on one with each other via their webcam. This is a great way enhance your site.

If you have questions about our dating software or social software and they way FFMPEG is used, simply contact us. We’re here to help.
