Yes, you can build an a/v chat system with Wowza using a Flash client. There is a simple example in the Wowza examples folder where Wowza is installed, and which you are free to use as starting place, though it is a very simple example with much to add for commercial chat.

There’s a ton of tutorials and examples to get you started. That’s what you have to do, just start reading using Wowza and look at the Flash examples.

There is a Flex 3.5 av chat for Wowza that takes it a little farther than the shipped example here:

> [@Wowza/Flex AV Chat example](http://community.wowza.com/t/-/234):

> This is a Flex version of the Wowza videoChat example, with application module to track users and streams in shared objects. Wowza and Flex source files are attached. Steps: Copy the jar file from the package /lib folder to Wowza lib folder. Create an application named “avchat”, then add this Module /conf/avchat/Application.xml /Modules list.

I don’t have a direct link to that. It’s a bit of work. Most serious developers start digging into the source code of the examples.

i can’t really find the link that has to do with creating a website / service like tinychat . I would really appreciate if you could give me a direct weblink on multi uisers video chat etc .

thats what i am trying to say, i can’t find any example or write up relating to what i want to do . i noticed you used the word “serious” in your reply above , its not that i am not a serious person , like i said i am a newbie and i would definitely need a little assistance and guidance , i hope that wouldn’t be too much to ask for .
