ActionScript :: Javascript - Load Video From Users Hard Drives Without Server?
Nov 3, 2009
I need to play on my .swf a movie (h264) from the users' hard drive.Unfortunately the as3 components only read from URLs or streams, and you can't set the data or load from your c:/ path as the security sandbox stops you. Here is what each component loads:
Video >> netStream
VideoDisplay >> URL
VideoPlayer >> URL
I tried attaching a fileReference.data (byteArray) to all of them but nothing seems to work.my question: Is there a way of doing this without actually uploading the videos (h254) to the server?I have read that it is possible to do a javascript that can upload the data to it and then pass it to the netstream but I can't figure out how to do it myself.

By default, the server runs as System Account with no access to network drives. You can change the service user to a user with network access privileges with a UNC path. In Windows 2008, when I change FMS service to log on as user and start the service I get
"Windows Could not start the Flash Media Server (FMS) service on Local Computer.
Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly".
When I change it back to Local System Account, it works fine. Tested in Windows 7 x64 and I was able to start the service as a user log on. I checked the local policy group and the user have rights to log on as a service. I compared Windows 7 setting to Windows 2008 and they match.

MMO best practice. Download music and heavy files to users hard disk? I have just downloaded a Hello Kitty MMO app for research (for my kid of course).I am developping my English teaching app with LOADS of classical music, mp3 sentences and heavy background bgs. Would the best idea be for client to download these to their hardisk ie I would not need to stream them and therefore save a fortune on bandwidth charges from my ISP?

we're planning to set up a live streaming service, one operson live streaming a video to multiple users. so no more than one channels contemporary in uplaod, and at the beginning it won't be a open broadcast service (maybe later..) we initially don't know how many can be the users. I've red that there's no theoretically limit for the maximum number of users connected with a fms, is this also valid for live streaming, or has it some limitation due to be live? is it necessary to have our fms, or is it possible (and cheaper) use a server provider?

We've just installed Flash Media Server 4 to host video for a new client. We've gotten it to serve up video to the public and ourselves (inside our own network), but the problem is our client cannot view the videos. They keep getting a "can't connect to the network" message.Does anyone know of how we should troubleshoot this? The videos are each about 90 minutes long, and for right now, there are six of them, which is why we wanted to stream instead of embedding them.

I have developed a audio/video/text chat application with multiple users. I would like to store/save live session in to a single video so that we can manage archived live sessions, and make these sessions available for other users just like a normal video/FLV.
I know we can store single live streaming with DVR but I need to store all the live cams into single video. Note: I'm using FMIS for above application (with rtmp).

Can I develop a Flash AS3 download swf that will let a user select a location on their hard drive to download files to and then start the download of multiple files (in the same way I can do with upload)? Or should I zip all the multiple files first and download zipped files to local disk. My users will want to download potentially hundreds of images from a server to local disk so I dont want them to have to click save for each one. Will AS3 let me pass an array of filenames and store the location that the user originally chooses? I ask because this sounds like it would have been not allowed for security reasons.

When concurrent users increases my a/v conent delivery to the client is very slow. or even drop. Feel breaks in the session. but when check my server rsourses, almost free. One more observation, when i liesten to the recorded stream everything seems to be fine like there is nothing oing bad in live session.
Is there somthing which is missing for concurrent users for FMS config file.

I'm trying to record video from the users webcam and play it back at a later date.
I call
[Code]...
However, when I look at the FMS Admin Console at the streams in app/_definst_, their types are either "NetStream" or "Live". If they were being saved wouldn't they say "Stored"? After I close the application doing the recording, the "NetStream" type stream disappears, and after a while all the "Live" typed streams are gone too. Nothing is saved.
I have no idea what is happening. I don't know if it's a problem with my AS3 code not closing the recording properly or if I'm doing something else wrong, or maybe somethgin isn't right in the FMS?

As titled, what is the way to record video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http?What I am trying to do, is to record a user's microphone's input and save it to the server.fterwards, I would like other users to be able to access the recorded files and mainuplating the audio data, by computeSpectrum(), to do some visualization of the audio. As I know computeSpectrum() cannot work on streaming files, so I think I need to access the recorded files using http instead of rmtp. Is that true?

I'm looking for a flash script/library to capture video and audio from a webcam and then somehow get a saved flv to my encoding server. I'm not looking for something that will host the videos for me. I just need something simple to capture and then upload. I really want this to be open source and free.
I've done a fair amount of searching and it seems that most of what i can find is either a full blown service with hosting, or the red 5 suite. I've been trying for a day to get something going on with Red5, but honestly I haven't done any flash or java development in over 6 years and this seems way too complicated when all i really want is a flash object i can stick on a webpage.

I have a SWF loaded via a "swfobject.embedSWF()"I use Javascript's methods to pass calls via the flash APIs:call.player.sendEvent('LOAD', theFile)Using a XMLHttpRequest() call via GET to a PHP script I get a file url:Typing the URL into my browser starts the file, but passing the variable to the sendEvent() call does nothing. Why?
var response = http.responseText;
loadFile(response);
player.sendEvent('PLAY');

I'm usig Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.0.1, it works fine, no major problems, when the internet between Media Encoder and Server stops, some times the stream doesn't start automatically.I have a problem with users(viewers) trying to connect to server. The server is connected to fiber optic internet at 100mbps and the stream is made in 500kbps with media encoder 2.5.
When are 40-50 simultaneous viewers works fine, but when enter more viewers, for example, 200 simultaneous, nobody cam receive the stream good, it works frame by frame or flash player display "buffering", work 3 seconds and buffer 5 sec,and so on.HOW I CAN RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM?it is possible to connect milions of users simultaneous, how can i do that.I need more servers to connect each to each other? Could you send me a diagram how to do that?I need to increase the ram memory from server?( i have P4 dual core 3.0 Ghz, 6 Gb ram 800Mhz).

I was looking into a readymade flash CS4 project. It's kind of slideshow for some photos. I wanted to modify the Action Script in order to use the pictures in my computer's hard drive.
The code that has been used there in that project is something like

but, I don't want to specify the url of the images. Instead I want to pick up these images from my hard drive.

I am in the middle of building a kind of image editing application.Basically the user uploads their picture and then can draw on it, (sounds silly I know!).I was toying around with allowing them to just upload their file onto my server where it would be saved and then they could edit it through flash, but I don't want the responsibility of ****, child **** cyber bullying etc going on on my webspace!!
So I'm trying just "loadMovie" with the local path of a file, but it is not loading when I put the swf on the web! It all works fine locally but not on the web?Is there some security bypass I can write into my actionscript that will allow this?

I'm having with loading variables from a text file that is sitting on a Hard Drive rather than the server?
I would like each computer station to pull data from the server based on their individual Station IDs (which is defined in the text file on the hard drive).
The path to the text file is C:StationID.txt - I am having trouble with defining the PATH to the text file on the actual hard drive.

I'm writing a Flash-based video player which simply plays FLV videos. A filename is passed in via a flashvar. Presently, this is achieved with the following function:
[Code]...
A video is grabbed and then added to the stage, with a player skin overlaid. However, what I want to do is load a video from the file system (the same server the SWF is deployed to) rather than fetching a video from a URL. Reading the documentation for the source property tells me it will only accept URLs. The reason I want to read from the file system is because these videos will be stored outside the root of the server. For example, a standard Apache set-up:

I understand that PlUpload supports several runtimes (html5, html4, gears, flash, etc). But most browsers now a days support flash. And most other file uploaders (namely: uploadify, fancy upload, to name afew) would function via a combination of javascript and flash. And the same file uploaders only support ONE runtime, which is flash. Even if the flash player plugin is not installed. A developer can easily integrate flash detection tools and redirect users to a download link. Which is most common for several sites.
