Try using WebRTC, it is very good for P2P connections. I would recommend starting with http://simplewebrtc.com/ to see if its good for you and then search for suitable framework.

It is not supported by all browsers but can be used in latest Chrome, Firefox and Opera. Not supported in IE and Safari yet.

Regarding one way video streaming: Here's another article I came across when I was wondering the same thing.

Streaming via RTSP or RTP in HTML5

It seems like HTML5 doesn't care, but there isn't likely too be much browser support. I suppose if you can transcode the stream to multiple formats simultaneously you could make it work one way

As for multi-direction, I've never heard of anything like that. This would require setting up a streaming server on the client PC, straight HTML wouldn't allow this.

Are you targeting a specific platform? ie. Windows where there may be a pre-installed service for this? – Kyle Preiksa Jun 08 '12 at 18:36
