I have a problem where I'm streaming a video via RMTP from akamai for a video serving site and an issue has come up during QA where a user starts a video stream and then disconnects their internet connection, which causes the video player to go into the buffer state. The problem occurs when they reconnect their internet connection and we'd like to pick up the stream again.
View 1 RepliesWhen streaming a live event through FMS 3.5, is there a list of guidelines or best practices to handle the situation when the stream disconnects and should reconnect.Basically, what I do now is wait 20 seconds after the initial disconnect, then close the stream and ask the user to ty to reconnect to the stream again.
View 3 RepliesI would like Flash to reconnect to a socket if its connection is dropped. I am using the Socket class to establish a connection and then adding an Event.CLOSE listener to the socket. What is a good strategy to reconnect back to the socket if the connection has suddenly closed? Here is a the method I am calling inside the close handler. The connect() method establishes a new socket connection
HTML Code:
private function handleOutage():void
{
// if socket is not connected
[code]...
However, I keep getting the following error:
HTML Code: Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation
I got a mxml file that launch a script on my http server through a HTTPService.send() call. Since the script on the server side takes a LOOOONG time (it could take even more than a hour) i would like to drop the connection between my air application and server when a button is clicked. Don't know why but calling HTTPService.disconnect() is totally useless... No tcp connection drops and script keeps on running on server side. No HTTPService.cancel() nor set HTTPService var to null worked.
View 1 RepliesI have a publisher who publishes a netstream using stratus p2p. This is then connected to by player who subscribes to the netstream.
I believe one can reject the subscriber when the stream tries to connect by using the onPeerConnect method of the netstream's client. However, I would like to boot the subscriber after they have been connected.
There are potentially other subscribers to that netstream so I cannot just close it. How would I boot a particular subscriber without closing the published netstream?
when I'm streaming in live :a. FMLE is disconnect for couple seconds (10 -30), stop encoding and then renew the connection and the encodingb. In the same time, I can see users (streams) are disconnecting/ disappear from the console.As said it can happen once in a session, but this disconnect most of the users and they have to refresh their browserto get the live session again.Currently I'm using FMSS 3.5.4 r210, Linux redhat 5.2,6 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU 16GB.I found a post named "FMS disconnect from FME" (Jun 7, 2010 3:36 PM by BJWP Ltd)

View 3 RepliesIs it possible to keep loaded stream before close connection? so that server can save bandwidth when user playback without reload stream.
View 3 RepliesI was wondering how can I connect to a live stream camera like this one URL... or others if you know. And after I established the connection to load it in a movieClip and have it in full screen.
View 0 RepliesI have a frame that has a movie embedded in and a main menu button.I have several in the presentation that work fine.This one will not.Is there something that will keep a button on the stage from working when movie clip is present.My movie has the following error:The video player is in the connection error state.It enters this state when a video stream attempted to load but was unsuccessful. There are two possible reasons for the error: no connection to the server or the stream was not found.It plays fine on the stage. My button code is:
menu_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, main1);
function main1(event:MouseEvent):void
{
gotoAndStop(51);
}
I know this stream works because of two reasons:
1) It works OUTSIDE of OSMF
2) It works in the akamai support player: [URL]. I don't believe the current akamai support player is using OSMF (which is suprising since they built the predecessor to osmf..)
My question is: How in the world do I play a live stream in osmf? This should be very simple if not automatic. However, I'm getting the following error when I try to play a working live stream:
Error: Stream not found
Which is a bunch of garbage since a non-OSMF player can play it. I have the Akamai Basic Streaming plugin which doesn't seem to be working either.
Is it possible to stop a (live) Stream from playing for a user, but keep his NetConnection open for eg chat functionality?I only see a setBandwidthLimit to accomplish something similar to this, but then, if BW is set to 0, chat won't work.Why isn't there a built in feature to do something of seemingly common necessity like Client.stream.stop/change function to stop or change what video playback the client sees?

Say If the user is on a Dial up connection then play the initial 50% of the movie that has been loaded while loading the remaining 50% in background, If the user is on DSL or cable then load the entire 100% movie and so on.

View 1 RepliesI've installed Flash Media Server and send stream to it use Flash Media Live Encoder via [URL]. And on my website, I've embed code to play this live stream via [URL]. All ok!
But, any user can install Flash Media Live Encoder and connect to my FMS, publish his/her stream (because url to publish and view is same) My question is: how to prevent end-user publish stream to my FMS, only allow end-user view my live stream?
I'm making a plugin that used for posting a http url to the server every 3mins when we open a stream. and the server system will return
- 200 OK
- 400 FAIL.
In case of OK do nothing In case of FAIL stop the stream and open an pop-up window. User can press OK and a new page will be open.
At the end of the movie I would like to check if the user is still connected to the Internet (they maybe on an unstable dial-up connection and lost connection). Is there anyway to do that? I mean, is there a way to check if a user is connected to the Internet using ActionScript?

View 1 RepliesWhat would be the better approach for using the Sockets in AS3.
1st) open one connection and keep it alive until the site unloads?
2nd) open a connection, use it, and close it when done; then, open again when I need?
Considering a scenario where some users will make a constant use of the Socket, but others will almost not use it, what would be the better approach? Does an alive Socket connection use too much bandwidth? Does the action of connecting consumes more than keeping it alive?
In an effort to tidy up my large folder I accidentally moved a fla. file and now I cannot open it.

I tried moving the file back into it's original folder but that did not change things. Is there anything I can do or should I start to accept that it's gone?

String password = "password";

Basically the solution was simple. Everybody keeps saying to put jar into lib folder, so i done it, but i wasnt realised that i have to put into my servers lib directory, not app lib directory and this miserable mistake cost so much. Anyway i hope this will help for some newbie like me.In this particular situation im using red5, so i putted it into my red5 dist/lib directory and "surprisingly" its started to work.
