Gonzobahn is a work in progress community application built with RubyOnRails implementing ideas sprung from the concept of open source art. Currently features an online video/audio recorder leveraging the power of Red5, an open source alternative to Adobe Flash Media Server.
Here’s a step by step guide to getting started with your development environment.
rake db:migrate rake db:test:prepare
sudo rake gems:install
Follow installation instructions on jira.red5.org/confluence/display/downloads/Red5+v0.8.0+Release+Candidate+2+02.03.2009
When Red5 is up and running. Browse to localhost:5080/installer and install the oflaDemo application (you only need to do this once).
Gonzobahn expects there to be a ffmpeg binary ready to run from a pathed dir on your system.
If you’re on Mac OS you can use the precompiled ffmpeg binary found in vendor/bin/leopard/ffmpeg.
Example (make sure you have ~/bin in your path first)
cp vendor/bin/leopard/ffmpeg ~/bin/
cp config/initializers/directories.rb.example config/initializers/directories.rb
Then edit the file and set the values corresponding to your setup. You’ll probably only have to worry about RED5_RECORDINGS_DIR.
script/server
Now start implementing your awesome improvements.

The instructions are written for Ubuntu 8.04.
