Denis: here is another approach that combines simple AppleScript 
commands with the "do shell script" and using the remote QT Broadcaster 
command line
tool  "broadcasterctl"

tell application "QuickTime Broadcaster"
	activate
end tell
do shell script "broadcasterctl start"

The advantage of using this approach is that it uses the "do shell 
script" syntax that runs commands in the terminal as a background 
process.
for more info see 
http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html

Typing "broadcasterctl" into Terminal gives the following:

broadcasterctl 4.1.1 (412.36)

Usage: broadcasterctl [-b broadcaster-path] [-a audiopreset] [-v 
videopreset] [-n networkpreset] [-t (audio|video|av)] [-r 
(record|norecord)] [-f settingsfile] 
((config|status|presets|launch|start|stop|restart|quit)

Also take a look at the "man page".  Using Terminal type "man 
broadcasterctl".

Hope that helps.

-Daniel
