Flash :: Video Streaming - Bandiwdth Detection Work In FMS?
Apr 3, 2012
I've been maintaining a video system for a client that uses JW Player with Flash Media Server to stream out some video. Until recently this was just pushing out one stream at one bitrate. This obviously isn't ideal for everybody so I've been looking at bandwidth detection.
I've built a demo system that can now dynamically switch between three bitrates using the built in methods in JW Player. Before I can push it, I need to answer a question from my client: Does it have hysteresis built in so that the stream does not oscillate if the bandwidth is marginal? Ideally, if the bandwidth is anywhere near the bottom of a band (yeh, yeh..) then I would like it to use the next speed down.
I've just been asked to create a video player which automatically chooses the correct bitrate video to stream by detecting the bandwidth.I have no experience creating a video player so I'm looking for links/resources to do some research on the topic.Has anyone here created a video player in Flash? Would it be better to create in Flash or Flex?Once again, I have no prior knowledge in this type of creation and could use an experienced developer's opinion on what the first step is towards progress.
I am streaming flash video and the dimension of the video is 1280 by 720 (same size as the stage)
but just before the video streams, there is a quick flash of the video (about 320px by 240px) at the top corner of the stage, and then it plays the videos at the correct size (which is 1280 by 720) .... a quick flash is the best way I can explain it.
This is my code:
function clicked(event:MouseEvent):void { var video:Video = new Video(); addChild(video);
[Code]....
is there anyway I can stop that quick flash of the video .... so when I click on the button, it just plays the video, at the correct size?
I want to play smooth streaming video from IIS using the flash video player like e.g. jw flash player instead of silverlight player?Which video format should I use in this case? Can flash then play e.g a video via smooth streming encoded with microsoft encoder?Do you know some alternative video players, that combines flash and silverlight functionality (selected per java script) to use with flash and silverlight?
I am trying to make a flash movie and have it find a external movie to show. I also need to be able to change the location of the video without flash, so I think I have to use a seperate .as file.
I am trying to test the collisions between a bullet and an array of enemies in Actionscript 2. However it is not sensing a collision.This is the code in the bullet.
I am wondering if there's any way I can track objects in Flash video using ActionScript? For example, let's say I would like to track a red ball, how can I do this? I have seen some examples using the OpenCV port but the examples shown are for face detection. And I can't seem to figure out what's the difference between the OpenCV port and the actual OpenCV library itself. Is it a full port?
I need a flash video player for our public site where users will share videos.The video usage model is similar to youtube as far as video part is concerned.Users will upload and share videos. Users will browse and play all shared videos as well.The videos will be streamed from the server and our app is a .NET/C#/JQuery application.We have 3 options:
1) Either buy a commercial flash player
2) Customize a open source player or use free player and customize its gui
3) Develop our own (time consuming and last resort)
I am required to find a flash video player with these requirements:
Player should work in all major browsers (IE, FF, Chrome, Safari)
Player should have way to inject Advertisement clips when playing a video file
Light weight and easy to integrate
Must support streaming and scale
Plus all other basic features of a flash video player.

I need some help with streaming wav files in flash. I can load a wav file and stream it ok using actionscript 3 into my fla file. However if I go to edit the wav and make it shorter the saved wav file will not play. I have used a trial version of soundbooth to see if I could somehow change the settings for the wav but I still cannot make it work. It will stream as an mp3 but I want the file to loop and need the file to be wav. I have attached the file. I have no problem when I upload the file into the fla file but that is not what I want to do.
I made a radio player that plays different internet radio stations.It works in firefox and Chrome but does not work in IE.I have tried ony 2 computers.But both of them same thing.Are there security restrictions in IE that the other browsers dont enforce? Below is the code I use to play the sound.Im thinking IE has a problem with ;stream.mp3 The source of the internet radio is not located on my server.
I'm looking to duplicate the video-embedding technique shown on [URL], whereby they show the flash video to all platforms where flash is available, and only show the HTML5 player on mobile devices. (specifically, iphone / ipad)
Is there a browser-sniffing framework, or some other method available to accomplish this?
I have a problem with an embedded flash video not playing to the end, it stops around half way It is a 4 minute video with sound, the FLV file is around 24Mo This is a normal server not a flash streaming server .
I have at least 10 other sites on line with a flash video on the home page and they all work fine.on the same server.only difference is that this file is about 10 Mo bigger on average.
I contacted the company where my server is hosted and they say that it looks like a java script problem but I am using flash 8 pro standard <object> no java script to detect version etc.[code]...
I have a simple flash video player that streams the video from a streaming media server. The stream plays fine and I have no problems with playing the video and doing simple functions. However, my problem is that on a mouse over of the video, I have the controls come up and when I do a seek or scrub on the video, I get little weird boxes that show over the video - like little pockets - of the video playing super fast (you can basically see it seeking) until it gets to the point it needs to be at and then these little boxes disappear.
Is there any way to do dynamic video streaming in flash without using Flash Media Server (FMS) 3.5 as it's a very expensive software but using some open-source software or in any other way.
Its been two years since I built a video player and back then Flash was the only choice (just about). My question is if I want to stream a .h24 video over the web that is cross browser and platform compatible, has anything the ubiquity of Flash? How about Flowplayer?
I almost think it's impossible but I know little. I saw once on a website a streaming webcam video in fact it was live. I right-clicked it and it was in flash. Does anyone know how do streaming video with a webcam in flash?
I'm gonna make a streaming video in Flash.But I don't know how I'm gonna start,do you got some examples or good tutorials?Can I load the video from Internet or must it be in Flash?
I've been trying to insert a video in a flash project that is hosted on a flash media server. I put the address wich by the way is [URL] and it doesn't work, I'm pretty sure that the address is right, am I misssing something?
we are looking forward towards developing a very interesting community portal that would help the user to broadcast their live videos across the community.I've been checking over sites like ustream.tv, justin.tv and wondering what/how Technology they been using to do so.
I am doing a lot of research over the last few days checking over the medium to do this effectively and figure out some of the leading companies in the domain like Ooyala.com, brightcove.com providing servers/technology to broadcast videos seamlessly across the globe. I will be signing up with any of these providers soon.So my question is , how exactly would my website be catching with the live feed from the users cam, send the stream to ooyala/brightcove and further broadcast it to rest of the community users.
I need to create a simple video streaming without using Flash comunicator server or other streaming server.So I am thinking to use RTMFP but I haven' t found any good RTMFP tutorial for this issue.
Do you know tutorial for Video Streaming using RTMFP ?
I'm trying to find a reliable yet cost-effective solution for hosting our small collection of .f4v videos. We're a small company so price is a major consideration. We also need the video to stream.I found Vimeo and it's cheap but they don't provide streaming.
Viddler looks like a good solution. It's is a little more expensive but streaming is available.We're trying to avoid enterprise solutions such as Akamai, etc.Any others out there?I also know about Red5 but prefer to have it hosted.
I am loading an video(flv) file and controlling the video using Play/Pause/Stop..everything is working fine. Now i want to implement streaming for this video. I am not using FLVPLAYBACK Component.
How to do this using flash cs3 ??? Except the streaming part i done everything.
Here's the code i am using :
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection(); nc.connect(null); var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
I have a video library that i want to create a previewer app for in flash. The problem is that all of the videos are in avi/wmv format. Is there any way to transcode them on the fly to flv format in order to stream through flash? If so then what tools would I need and all that jazz?
I've set up Red5 on one of my servers. I've created a "caster" flash app and a "viewer" flash app. Basically this is a "one-to-many" webcam streaming application.Everything is working fine. Users can fire up their webcam and connect to the server and broadcast. Viewers can connect to the streams with the "viewer" app just fine.What I'm trying to implement now, are snapshot and record buttons on the viewer side. Right now I am just focusing on snapshots.I've found lots of examples/tutorials on how to take a snapshot using your own webcam. However, when I try to implement these on the "viewer" side, it doesn't work. When I try to search for code examples on how to capture streaming data, everything that comes up is software for sale.[code]If I use this code in the "caster" app, it works just fine. But on the viewer side it fails. Through trial and error I've determined that the line that is failing is:[code]
