Realplayer supported SMIL!

Realtime dynamic composition of video streams from multiple servers with a few lines of XMl.

20 years later, there’s no alternative.

Jesus, how do you know that? Did you work there, like me?

Or, did you work for the evil empire (M$) and were you pimping HTML+Time?

Just a random streaming user :) I could share one link that would seamlessly blend multiple short video clips from 3rd-party servers. Today that requires sharing multiple URLs that each load a heavy web page with separate HTML video player, with no playback continuity. Mini movie editing with a text editor and revision control!
