I just set up a dynamic stream using FMS 3.5 and AS 3.0.I'd like to test it as much as possible before deploying it to our users.Are there any recommendations/ best practices on testing the video quality?Right now, I can get the video to play but I would like some more information about it like: the bandwidth, frames dropped, which video is being streamed. Is there a way to show this information?

I have the streaming server 3.5.3. The sample player page for the dynamic streaming is here: [URL].click on the dynamic sample. pause and wait a few minutes for disconnect from the server. When you hit play, it starts from that spot and also starts from the beginning in the background audio while showing the buffering orange circle the whole time.
My users are students watching long lectures, they pause all the time. when they come back, it is a mess.
I want to be able to do an if/else statement to test the value of a dynamic text field. The value will always be either yes or no. So, for instance,
Code:
if textfield.value = "yes" then
do something
else if textfield value = "no" then
do something different
end if
What would the syntax be? The dynamic text field is being populated from an external text file.
How do you set up a hit test for a dynamic movieclip that hasn't yet been created?I have a movieclip on the stage, and I want it to change colour when a yet to be created dynamic clip touches it.
View 1 RepliesI hava a button on the stage as instance name button.Inside the button objectd,IN the second layer of my button, I added a dynamic test with instance name dynamictest.When I add code to my first frame in the main stage time line, the program can not identfiy the dynamic text with instance name dynamictext.Should I say button.dynamictext.
View 4 RepliesI want my Dynamic textfield to display test from an XML-file. It loads the XML, but for some reason my dynamic textfield shows the nodenames, as well as the node text. Here's a snippet of my code:

myXML.ignoreWhite=true;
myXML.onLoad=teamSort;

I'm trying to load in xml test data into a dynamic text field.
this is my code so far:
var me_XML:XML;
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("me.xml"));
[Code].....
This, however, loads all the text in with tags. How would i go about accessing each node so i can remove the tags so I can apply a css style to each section??
Using php to declare a few Flashvars. No problems - they all arrive and behave. One of these populates a dynamic text field inside an MC. Simple enough stuff right? But.... when I try to test equality on that text field I get nothing. I've tried EVERYTHING I can think of. The MC is called "fake2". The text field inside it has a variable name of "choice_dyna" and an instance name of "fd2".

I'm trying to test a custom Flex 4 skinnable component, using the FlexUnit UIImpersonator class. If I run my tests from a FlashBuilder Spark only project everything works fine. If I try to test from a project with the mx component set on the classpath I get a "getElementIndex not available in non Flex 4 projects" error.Can I unit test spark components in FlexUnits visual test environment while still having the mx component set on the classpath?
UIImpersonator delegates it's method calls to a "testEnvironment".The implementation used for this "testEnvironment" is decided by the VisualTest EnvironmentBuilder class and the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class. If the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class can find the "mx.core.Container" on the classpath it returns a MX environment, else a Spark environment. Only the spark environment has valid implementations for Flex 4 relevant method calls on the UIImpersonator - like the addElement method.
My buttons only work when I click on them on the stage while having the "enable simple buttons" option on. They do not work if I try to "test movie," "test scene" and publish it to a SWF. Nothing responds whenever I am in these modes. I am using Adobe Flash Professional CS5 Actionscript 2.0.
This is the code that I put in for the buttons:

i have a movie that has worked fine in past during Html test but ive been doing some dubugging using the flash test latly and it runs fine here but when i go back and try to test in Html mode no errors come just the movie never fully starts (starts up about as much as if there was an error).
View 5 RepliesI have two scenes in my flash file and in scene 1, first button takes you to frame 2 where movie clip is -works
on (release) {
gotoAndStop("scene1",2);
}
second button takes you to frame 3
but on scene 2 that performs same function as scene 1, the first button
on(press){
gotoAndStop("scene2",2);
}
instead of going to frame 2 goes to frame 3. and the second button goes correctly to frame 3.that happens when i test scene! when i test movie all buttons work properly.
In FlexUnit 1 it is possible to access the name of the currently-running test using the TestCase.getName() method because all tests subclass TestCase. In FlexUnit 4, however, there's no base class for tests; the tests are identified by annotations. So, how can I replicate the getName() functionality in FlexUnit 4?

View 1 RepliesI have a main timeline which loads swfs in certain frames. It all works great except when I select one of the swfs that has a flv video inside. When I try to select any other frame the swf unloads but the audio stream remains.
Here is what I have
var Xpos:Number = 0;
var Ypos:Number = 0;
var swf:MovieClip;

I will have 3 more swfs with videos inside which I did not add yet as I need to get this sorted first.
We just upgraded our FMIS from 3 to 3.5. All our VOD streams were working prior to the updgrade. Now the streams do not play. When logged in to the admin and checking the Server Log, this is the message. I assume this is correct. I have **** out the address.

Is there anything more that I can check to see where this is failing?
Need to design a flash video player which can run multiple angles of video at the same time. The primary video will run at full size, and the other angles will run at a much smaller sample size at the bottom of the video. User will then be able to select whichever angle of video he likes and upon clicking the smaller video it will become full screen/mainplayer shell. The video which was previously full screen will then take its place among the other smaller videos.
View 2 RepliesI have installed Flash Media Server on our server. When I load up the application home page, I see the demo video of a train.
Then I click on the "Interactive" tab on the right hand side. I was SHOCKED to see that I can create a live stream from my local camera without any credentials at all. Anyone who visits this webpage can publish a live video stream on our Flash Media Server?
I'm trying to figure out whether or not it's possible to have two incoming streams to the same FMS server. Every time I try to search this information, I find stuff on having multiple outgoing streams, but nothing on multiple incoming streams.
The two streams will have the same content, but will use different video / audio codecs, and be set to different resolutions / bitrates.
I don't want to spend the money on another server, so it'd be great to know if FMS can do this..
I am new to FMS and RTMP. I am using a Viewcast Niagara 2120 to stream video and audio to FMS. I am unsure how to do anything besides a live broadcast. We would (at least) like to automatically record when the Niagara starts streaming to FMS and stop when its done. Eventually we would like to put something in place that will publish videos in some form as well (but for now thats least important).

View 8 RepliesDoes anyone know, if it's possible to record a sound stream with a mic / headset and then merge / mix the recorded sound with another pre-recorded mp3?
What I'm looking for, is a way to mix 2 sounds into a new sound object.I use AS3 / FlashPlayer 9 or 10.
whether sending media streams from AS from sources other than Webcams and Mics is possible or not? Seems like doing this with NetStream object is almost impossible since the only video and audio sources it accepts are Camera and Microphone objects. Imagine that I already have access to both video files and raw flv stream bytes, audio and video interleaved together.
View 2 RepliesI have a main timeline that has labels for different pages. On certain labels I have swfs loading using the UI loader with each swf removing itself while another appears. In some swfs I have .flvs called the same way and my problem is when an swf containing an flv is called the flv plays fine but soon as I select another frame the stream remains. How do I remove the stream so the next frame can play by itself?
View 2 RepliesI have created a very basic preloader using flash components 'Loader' and 'ProgressBar". It's job is to load an external swf movie clip/file.
Problem: When the preloader has finished doing it's 'thing', i.e. reaches 100%, it loads/or seeming reveals the external movie already underway i.e. not at the first frame.
I've read a few posts from "Whispers", and have concluded that the problem is that the movie is streaming whilst being loaded. And also that i need to be using "init" in regards to 'listener'.
However i really want to be able to apply this to the code i am using it, as i had just kinda gotten to grips with it (the code).
Is anyone able to tell me what a need to alter to get the preloader to finish loading the movie COMPLETELY before it starts to play.

myProgressBar.mode = "manual";
myProgressBar.setProgress(0, 100);
myProgressBar._visible = true;

View 1 RepliesDoes anyone know if it's possible with any of the Adobe products to automate and manage streams?
We've got a project that will be streaming pre-recorded video and music. Due to the number and frequency of these streams we need a way for us to automate and manage these through our own CMS system.
We will be ultimately pushing these streams out to our CDN provider so no end user streaming actually required.
