I have a home made RTSP server that streams video to QuickTime clients. Now, I need to support Flash Player clients, because QuickTime needs some configuration to work on Windows, and also there is no implementation of it in Linux distributions. Then I opted for Flash.
BUT: does Flash support RTSP??? If not, where can I find documentation for its streaming protocol so I can build one?
I have an IP camera streaming video through RTSP, and I am able to pick up the stream in VLC [URL]. What I need now is a way to show this stream in a Flash application I am developing (probably through the FLVPlayback component?). This means I need a way to "convert" or transcode the RSTP stream to a format supported by Flash, live.
I searched around but couldn't find any conclusive answers... Should I use VLC to transcode the video stream? Something with Adobe Media Server? Is ffmpeg an option here? I have no clue where to start or which option is most suited in this case.
Situation: I've got a RTSP stream with a 3GP video, users need to watch it in their browser. I can't rely on any proxy setups (RED5/Wozwa etc.) because of scalability.
Question: Is it possible to stream it in flash? (I don't mind any dirty hacks :) )
Does anyone know a way to receive an rtsp stream inside flash?
View 1 RepliesI have started a stream from Flash media encoder to flash media server. According to my encoder, it should be located at: "rtmp://localhost/live" and is called livestream.In the Flash software I try and set the source of FLVPlayback component to "rtmp://localhost/live/livestream", and I get this error: "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.". Both the server and encoder is runnind and I am encoding.Too, when I try and open the html with the stream in a browser, nothing appears.

View 2 RepliesI read limited (small - 15 - 500 mb files). I need to be able to put all file bytes into one single bytearray. So I have a function:

How to get a full bytearray from stream to use it as normal bytearray?
I have made a mp3 player that is working fine, it plays a mp3 radio stream for several hours (last crash was after 6,5 hours) and then it crashes without any message or exception. This is very difficult to debug because it only happen after a couple of hours with the same stream. It appear in all browsers so it is a Adobe Flash problem or is this a buffer problem?
Must i use other buffering settings to play MP3 streams? Does anybody know this problem and what can be done to avoid this? Also another question is why memory consumption after hibernation of the pc is growing dramaticly (every second it eats a couple of 10Kb). After refreshing the page it is stable again. Why is this happening? Mp3 player is made in Flash 9 (CS3) with AS3 and the player is Flash 10 (latest). Running on Windows XP Prof with 3GB RAM.
I have recently installed FMIS 3.5.3. In checking the access logs I find data in both logs that display the same stream stop and stream play time .I'm not sure why the time is the same (00:19:27 example below).

View 4 RepliesI'm creating website which needs video stream from surveillance camera implemented. Camera is GeoVision GV-FD120D 1.3Mpix LowLux IR 2.7-9mm and it is linked to server which I have full access to (I dont have direct access to camera)
I was playing around with settings on this cam and I managed to turn on RTSP protocol access for this camera. Then I used VLC (on server) to open network stream with address: [URL]Works!
Ideally I would like to show the video in player like jwplayer , however it does not support RTSP protocol, but RTMP instead.
So I guess I would need some kind of software on this server to:
1) transcode the video stream from RTSP -> RTMP
2) stream it out from server so I can connect to it with jwplayer later
I heard of Wowza media server but the budget is pretty tight for this project so would rather use free solution here.
I want to make sure that only authenticated users are publishing streams to my Adobe Flash Media Server.
Ideally I would like to limit the IPs which are allowed to publish streams to the server.
I read about the Adobe Authentication Plugin, but apparently it is broken since it works only for Adobe Flash Media Live Enconder. It doesn't secure the server for other encoders that publish streams.
I'm stumped on how to get started with Adobe Flash Media Server. On Linux. All I need to do is:

I'm completely new to ActionScript and Flash. I need to create a flash plugin that can play audio that is streaming live in an mp3 format. I would have used the new html5 <audio> tag except that they don't support mp3, and I have thus resorted to Flash.[code]...
View 1 RepliesI got a bunch of live stream from FMLE, say: "FMLE_channel1", "FMLE_channel2", "FMLE_channel3". And then on the server side, I created several corresponding republished stream called "channel1", "channel2", "channel3".
On periodical basis, we call Stream.get("channel1").play("FMLE_channel1", -1, 10, true) every 10 seconds. Similar things were done on the second channel & third channel.Soon after the above Stream.get("channel1").play() call, I should get the following events in sequence:info :NetStream.Unpublish.Successinfo :NetStream.Publish.Startinfo :NetStream.Play.Resetinfo :NetStream.Play.Start In the above case all are happy. Clients can view channel1, channel2, channel3 well.But then after a while, one of the three channels, in most case it would be channel1, will not be viewable.
With the server trace info, I found that after the Stream.get("channel1").play() call, only the following two events exists:
info :NetStream.Unpublish.Successinfo :NetStream.Publish.Starti.e. I was missing the play.reset and play.start event.I further checked and confirmed that the FMLE was publishing all three channels fine to the server. I was able to view the "FMLE_channel1" from flash clients, but not the republished "channel1". the version is FMS 3.5.0.
In order to play a FMS stream (live or on demand), either an FLVPlayback component or the Video class is needed.And they require ActionScript 3 and Flash 8 or above.
As far as i know , Youtube, Dailymotion and Google Video stream their on demand videos from a FMS, and their players are compatible with Flash 7.
How can they achieve this? If Youtube, Google and Dailymotion do that, i deduce it's possible..
I tried to create a Flash 7 application that plays a video coming from FMS, using a MediaDisplay component, but it doesn't work well. Sometimes it shows the video, sometimes not.So i don't think youtube player uses MediaDisplay..
is it possible to play video stream from non-adobe(or homebrew server), in the newest flash player(10).It looks like the VideoPlayer only plays the stream from FMS? Is it the business model of Adobe?

But it seemed not working at all.I was doing was try to build a generic media player. Whatever the source is(audio or video), the control panel always the same, namely, a mp3 player panel is always displayed:However, when I stream in a video file, it would end up overriding mp3 panel with a partial video screen.

I have an mp4 that is wrapped (or published) by an swf. I have successfully embedded the swf in a web page but when I play the video from the web page the quaility is significantly degraded. Unfortunately I have no control over the internals of the swf so what I would prefer to do is to embed the mp4 rather than the swf. I understand Adobe Flash Player supports mp4 since version 9, but I haven't been able to figure out the html to make this happen. Here is the code I am currently using with the swf.[code]...

i substituted the name of my animated gif for "mighty" and i also substituted the name of my button for"blue_btn", however when i test it, the button does not do anything. i think it could be due to the fact that the code says function BlueplayMovie in the beginning, and then again at the end. I don't know what that is, or what it means.
Just a minute ago my .fla file can be played. But after several minute when I added movie clips and animations. It just crashed down I guess, Adobe Flash CS3 stop working. I'm using Microsoft Vista operating system. I have an antivirus subscription which is McAfee with automatic update. I think it's a virus or what? I dunno what to do. I got a long way already with my animation on my file. When I will start from the very beginning it would be a mess and it will consumed a lot of time.Four to five attempts of testing the movie:
error msg: Adobe Flash CS3 stop working.
After several minute, test the movie again:
error msg: Flash CS3 memory overload, I dont know the exact error message.
I inspect the microsoft dialog and views the problem, it says APPCRASH, Flash.exe and has several .dll and other components did not load.
After I updated Adobe flash player I noticed that videos I streamed did not play correctly.A video will begin to play but part way through it will freeze. It will indicate that it is buffering but it never finishes buffering and never continues to play, even if I refresh it.This occurs for several sites such as youtube, megavideo, and wisevid. This occurs for every browser I have tried (Firefox, IE, and Opera.) I also realized today that now iTunes cannot not download video either. When I try it says that parts of the files seem to be corrupted. I have uninstalled and reinstalled flash several times but that has not helped. I am using Adobe 10.1 (under version test it says it is WIN 10,1,53,64) and I have Windows 7

View 4 RepliesI'm interested in making a stereoscopic player similar to YouTube's 3D Player. The first strategy I tried is having two streams (one for each eye) attached to two video objects, but I noticed that this could lead to problems with them going off sync due to separate buffering issues. So now I'm thinking the way to do it is to encode the two eyes side-by-side into one video, and do some Flash trickery whereby I can take the left side and overlay it with the right side.
I suspect that this is how YouTube does this, because they ask you to upload 3D videos in a side-by-side format in the first place. I don't know how to do that Flash trickery, where I essentially take a video's left-half and overlay it with it's right-half. I tried attaching one stream to two video objects that were offset from each other, but only one of the streams played.
I'm developing a Flex app (Flash Builder 4.5 AIR app). Flex can play other streams but it does not supports mms://url stream. can anyone suggest some sort of codec library in actionscript/flex. I want to design a stream radio app for desktop.
