I have my mp3 player set to stream audio. Because of this, I ran into the problem of having < 1 second of music play, then pause for a while, then actually begin to play fluidly. To prevent this annoying habit, I just stopped the mp3 immediately and made sure that a specified number of bytes were loaded before the song began to play[code]....
View 1 RepliesAs of Flash 10.1, they have added the ability to add bytes into the NetStream object via the appendBytes method URL...The main reason for this addition is that Adobe is finally supporting HTTP streaming of video. This is great, but it seems that you need to use the Adobe Media Streaming Server (URL...) to create the correct video chunks from your existing video to allow for smooth streaming.I have tried to do a hacked version of HTTP streaming in the past where I swap out the NetStream objects (URL...), but there is always a momentary pause between the chunks. With the new appendBytes, I tried to do a quick mock up with the two sections of video from the preceding site, but even then, the skip still remains.Does anyone know how the two consecutive .FLV files needs to be formated in order for the appendBytes method on the NetStream object to create a nice smooth video without a noticeable skip between the segments?
View 6 RepliesWe are streaming a one hour F4V from streaming media server 3.5.2 and for some reason it is seeing our one hour video as being 10 hours long. We have tons of other videos and never ran into this problem in any of the other files. This is the only file that exceeds one hour. This occurs in the default player from the streaming server.

I have a virtual directory (Storage Area Network) in 'C' drive as well as in "webroot" folder in Flash Streaming Server. What do I need to do to make RTMP videos work from SAN directory on Flash Streaming Server. It works fine for http. RTMP from vod -> application folder works fine. I have done a lot of research and found out that we can use virtual directories for streaming videos. I am unable to find steps on how to use it..
View 4 RepliesWe (the university I work for) want to add an IP camera to the top of a building (so it has to be IP, we can't put a machine up there, so USB is out of the question) to stream a live view of the quad. The problem is, I can't find a way to stream any IP Cameras through the flash live encoder. I tried a camera by Axis, but their capture driver only supported MJPEG which the live encoder does not.
View 3 RepliesI have installed FMS 3.5 on three different machines with the same less-than-optimum result. Two of the servers were virtual on VMware ESX3 and the third is on dedicated hardware: Quad 2.33GHz CPU, 8GB RAM, Gigabit interface, Win 2003 Ent SP2 and all latest patches through 1/6/10.
The primary problem is when I connect three PCs to the default web page and start the Getty demo video, the delivery of the video is jerky. There are pauses - orange rotating circle - and the motion looks almost like stop-action animation.

I've been trying very diligently to recieve id3 metadata from a streaming mp3. I have it streaming and it works great, but I need to grab the duration in the metadata.here's the jist of my code,
id3_ns = new NetStream(connection);
id3_ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,
netStatusHandler);[code]....
The only other thing I can think of trying is see if my mp3 is screwed-up, but I don't think it is because I can see the
metadata in the properties of the file.
I've been working on an audio streaming application for the last couple days. My current progress can be viewed at figmentmedia.ca /test.html.I've got a problem with this release. Look at the tan coloured line, near the base of the window, to the right of the control
buttons (of which only play and pause work). That line is supposed to be a loading bar. As you will probably notice it does not work. The code I've attached is located in the first frame of my movie. The second last line there, "mc_loaded.width =297/(soundClip.bytes Loaded/ soundClip.bytesTotal);", is the one giving me the trouble. After troubleshooting many different options.. none of which worked, I believe.. what is loading may be the variable. Regardless of what progress the bar is showing, it's not showing the progress of the sound clip.
is it possible to load MJPEG streaming into a flash file?I tried the loadmovie, loadmovienum function and nothing - they only carry SWF or JPG! Unfortunately, I can't convert this stream to those formats because it is a stream in real time from a IP camera!
I could even use an intermediary to make this conversion on-the-fly (with ffmpeg for example) but the computer resources it consumes is absurd ... And considering a lot of cameras, it does not offset the cost!
I have CS4 but saving doc as CS3 so I hope I am in the right forum. I added a behavior as sound streaming mp3. I want to loop it.. Here is the action code that was generated. How would I change it to looping. I changed the true to false at the end of the code but that didn't work. here it is:
//Load Streaming mp3 behavior if(_global.Behaviors == null)_global.Behaviors = {}; if(_global.Behaviors.Sound == null)_global.Behaviors.Sound = {}; if(typeof this.createEmptyMovieClip == 'undefined'){ this._parent.createEmptyMovieClip('BS_figaro',new Date().getTime()-(Math.floor((new Date().getTime()) /10000)*10000) ); _global.Behaviors.Sound.figaro = new Sound(this._parent.BS_figaro);

I am using as2 to stream some mp3s. At the moment I have an attribute within the xml for giving me the length.I guess the length for the mp3s is buried in the mmp3 file somewhere. If I load the files in totally first, then I can get at the info (ID3 is it?) however, this doesn't work for streaming them . Or rather, I can't make it work! (I have found posts which suggest making an estimate if you know how much has downloaded in so many seconds and you know the length etc etc - but this is exactly that - an estimate!)So my question is how do I get the length of an mp3 clip that I am going to stream?
View 1 RepliesI installed Flash Media Server 3.5 on my web server and I'd like to dynamically stream my videos. Does anyone have any recommendations or tutorials for creating a video player in Flash that will dynamically adjust the video according to the user's connection speed?
View 1 RepliesI'm new to the streaming video world but I do have FMS 3.5 up and running and have encoded some wmv and mp4 videos to flv using adobe encoder CS4. I followed the tutorials and have created the swf files in flash CS4 and the videos are streaming as expected.
The primary issue I am having is the videos tend to be choppy at times. They pause, run slowly, audio pops and just overall; glitchy. Typically at the beginning but some times throughout. The test files at the FMS admin page stream fine without issue from the same server. We have tested the site/streams from multiple providers all at cable modem speed or above.
We are running FMS 3.5 developer version and wish to purchase the full version but I really need to fix this issue to prove it's value.As a bit of background we are running/testing FMS 3.5 from a server with the following specs:Redhat EL 4.6-32 SuperMicro X7DBU Intel Xeon QuadCore DualProc Sata [2Proc] Intel Xeon-Harpertown 5420-Quadcore [2.5GHz] OEM 4GB ECC FB-DIMM DDR2 Mainboard Onboard SATAII Controller (2) Western Digital WD Caviar RE 16 WD2500YS Uplink speed 10 (Mbps) Bandwidth allotment 2000 GB(Virtual Private Rack)
I am working on a site that is intended to stream two or more flv simultaneously. The slightly different header clip should renew on entry to each page. When I publish the fla file it plays as intended. When I upload the swf file to the web only one of the videos are playing back. It does not matter if I import the video to a timeline, or stream it progressively from the server. Both clips are uploaded.
View 7 RepliesIn using Flash Live Media Encoder to aquire a webcam video and to send it to a Flash Media Development Server 3.5 for live video streaming to one client by the same local network.The client device doesn't support flash player but is able to read and play flv video format.So, if i get a flv video file from apache 2 it works.But I don't know how to get a live video streaming from the server.

View 6 RepliesI was wondering if it was possible to motion tween an flv while it's playing? So far I can mask the flv with an animated object, animate objects behind the video, and in front. I tried animating the video itself and as soon as the movie plays in preview the animation stops.
View 2 RepliesI'm streaming an mp3 that plays while my movie plays. I did this through an empty movie clip with an instance name soundLoader. Then on an actions layer I put the following:holidayTune = new Sound(soundLoader);holidayTune.loadSound("Jacks_Stomp.mp3",true);This works great, but I need it to loop. It's ending before my movie does and since the length of the movie really depends on the user's participation and how long they take to make selections (it's an interactive piece), I need it to keep playing.

I have a Flex GUI which is using AMF Streaming to BlazeDS on WebLogic 9.2. As the AMF Streaming uses long polling, it keeps the connection open for extended periods of time.
WebLogic has a max thread timeout of 600 seconds. WebLogic throws an error and times out the thread if it has been alive for longer than the timeout. This causes my GUI to lose its connection and hang.
I could change the default setting in WebLogic (StruckThreadMaxTime) but this would obviously negatively effect legitimately stuck threads.
I need to be able to play MP3/AAC audio with a custom-built Flash player, embedded in a web page using my standard HTTP server. The loadSound() method seems to work fine for this, but I need to be able to skip the MP3 to unbuffered regions of the audio timeline and to start it streaming/downloading from there.
Anyone know how I can accomplish this? I've used the excellent mod_h264_streaming plugin for Apache for f4v "pseudostreaming" so I'm trying to accomplish the same thing on my audio files.
Is it possible to simulate streaming mp3s with local mp3s in flash?
