Play java video streaming with player

Question

I want to steam live video using Java to a player (FlowPlayer, JW Player, etc)

I found an example but it is using java servlets:

Servlet code:

byte[] data = findingService.getVideo(params.id)
response.setContentType("video/avi")
response.setContentLength(data.length)
println "length=${data.length}"
byte[] content = new byte[1024];
BufferedInputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(data));
OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
while (is.read(content) != -1) {
  println "... write bytes";
  os.write(content);
} 

is.close()
os.close()

Flow generated code:

<a href="/finding/video.avi?id=99" style="display:block;width:215px;height:150px;" id="flowplayer_99">
<object width="100%" height="100%" id="flowplayer_99_api" name="flowplayer_99_api"  data="/swf/flowplayer-3.2.4.swf?0.1476281308569014" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true">
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="cachebusting" value="true">
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000">
<param name="flashvars" value="config={"playerId":"flowplayer_99","clip":{"url":"/finding/video.avi?id=99"},"playlist":[{"url":"/finding/video.avi?id=99"}]}">
</object>
</a>

Is it possible to use sockets instead of a servlet to provide the video?

Can someone provide me an example using java sockets or nio channels?

Thanks
