Hi,

Is there any way to create a cinema type setup,
Where you'd setup a group, only users in that group could access this area,
There would also be a chat area where anybody who's in the cinema watching, would also be in a chatroom
So everyone could be in the same chatroom while they're watching videos, or even just two people.

I don't want them to have the ability to create their own video stream / chatrooms.

Thanks

Not much to go on, but yes this should be possible with drupal no problem. For groups you'll probably want to consider the og module. As for chat, there's several options in the downloads area.

Sorry, i just thought of it last night, i had forgotten about the idea.

It would be like a vip area on the site,
Create a vip group and only those users can go there and watch movies while they chat amunst themselfs.

So how would i go about this?

Take a chat module like realchat.com/chat-iframe.html, or one that exists on my site only.
Place that in a node, then build a video module into drupal and add a player to that same node over the chat area?

Not really sure which video module would be the best for my needs.
So istarted installing dashmedia player last night but i'm still stuck on that.

Again, it's really hard to say with this level of detail. Which video module you use depends on what type of video you'll be using. There's the flashvideo module for flv, the video module for all sort of web supported formats, the emfield module to embed video from other services, etc.

I installed the dash media player took me a few nights to get it working
I guess i could give access to those flash players in nodes,
Maybe put a chat under the players i want
