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?
View 12 RepliesIs it currently possible to create a flash free live webcam chat with HTML5? If so, how can I go about doing this?
View 2 RepliesI would like to know if it's possible for flash to stream it's webcam directly to another computer without a flash media server in the middle, I want to build a highly scalable video system which basically logs people into the site, records their ip address and then when someone wants to chat to that person, connect the output from the webcam to the input of the flash video player and vice versa. The idea being that they basically plug together, rather than a huge, expensive, bandwidth hungry server in the middle. Is it possible? I heard that flash can talk binary directly to sockets now, could this be a solution?
View 1 RepliesBefore I buy the Flash Media Server, I would like to know that:
- Is it possible to crop the webcam video (because I need just one part of the whole picture) before streaming from the client's Flash Player to the Media Server? (it would reduce the bandwidth a lot)
- If not, can the player store some parts of video until it is fully streamed with all it's data (30 fps) to the Server? (e.g: client: low bandwidth, I need all frames that the webcam records, real-time doesn't matter if it takes 1 minutes for 20sec video, that would be ok.
is there a way to connect a Video object to a webcam installed on another computer in the Network, without setting up a streaming server?The machines can have fixed IPs and whatever, but I'm limited to LAN/WAN technology. Using AIR is possible.
View 5 RepliesI have to install a multi-webcam setup that will be live streamed and accessible via a web browser.I'm looking into the quickest and most efficient solution, the less time and hassle it takes to implement, the better. That means buying hardware and/or software is not that much of an issue (as long as it's not 1000$+ flash server software).
The requirements / basic setup:The web server will be directly connected the cams (via ethernet / WiFi).The stream should be viewable by the max possible audience so no ActiveX / VLC-style object embedding. Flash would be ideal (even if it's a paid solution).Bandwidth is not an issue, max 2-3 clients at a time, most of the time only one.
I know that is possible to make a p2p webcam stream with Cirrus/Stratus or with Adobe liveCycle, but the first is not for commercial use and the second use an adobe's server. Is possible to set up a my own server with Flash media server 4 and then create a application to do what i want? I would to create a webcam stream 1->n using p2p. I cant find any example or any documentation about that and how work the rtmpf protocol of fms4. If i was not clear make me any question.
View 1 RepliesI have been working on a Flex application that sends a feed from my webcam to the Flash Media server. The application connects to the server fine but for some reason the camera is not sending anything to the Media Server. I am pretty sure that the answer to my question is really simple but I need another set of eyes to llok at my code and tell me what I am doing wrong.
[Code]....
This will create an flv video file on flash media server:
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.publish("yourCamera", "record");
ns.attachVideo(Camera.get());
How can I generate an image for the current video frame every 2 seconds?

View 2 RepliesI 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?

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to stream a webcam from 1 server to many client, what I really need to know is :1. How to adjust a bitrate video for bandwidth streaming, is it enough just using a Camera.setQuality() ?2. If u set Camera.setMode() at large resolution, for example at 1024x768 is it could make the bandwidth for client access increase too ?I mean is it affect the bandwidth for set the resolution at small (ex: 160x120) or set at large (ex: 1024x768) resolution.3. Same as number 2. just it was for video=new Video(w, h) . Is setting a video size affecting the bandwidth ?

View 1 Repliesmy task is to code a flash application that lets an user take a snap shot with webcam, attach it to an movieclip and modify the self portrait by adding hair, hats, glasses etc. that are available on menu.[URL]..
I managed to get the webcam working when i used it as a document class. When i changed my code so that the Free Transform Tool code is in document class and the webcam script is in Webcamactions.as file, i can't control the movieclips anymore...the movieclips (such as "imagecanvas" where i attach the video). My Mac's webcam light indicates that the function works, but the video doesn't appear in the movieclip.

View 2 RepliesI 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.
Possible Duplicate: Flash video player for video streaming.is there any good and open-source video player to be embed in as3, no flex, html, and js.i tried
f4player.org
https:[url]....but i found tons of bugs,if you know any comercial player, that would be awesome too.
The problem is a weird problem, because I can connect to the application through an RTMP test site, Adobe Flash Server reconginzes the connection and allows it. But when I try to connect from the flash applet (It's called Videowhisper), the connection doesn't go through. I was wondering if anyone knew what the problem is? I host Joomla (open source networking site) on a WAMP server, and Adobe Flash Server on the same machine. Adobe Flash Server is acception connections, just not from Joomla, for some reason.
View 2 RepliesI have installed flash media server, flash cs5, media live encoder to be able to view my webcam feed via my website. Now in addition to these, i started streaming to localhost, and installed a dns updater which updates a name server according to my current ip. Then i wrote this dns address in the feed's source from flash 5 as rtmp://thednsname.somedns.net/live/livestream
so far so good, i also forwarded the ports 1935 incoming and outgoing from modem to my computer as well (because 1935 is said to be the default port number for media server). firewall -> closed (just in case); and my internet provider doesn't block ports...started the media server (with admin privilage in 7), started the live encoder, connect to localhost, start live feed.
NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.
What I want to do is have control over the streams so I can send them wherever I want, have it interface w/a mic and cam, and the ability to capture and record them. At this point I don't have any specific specs or limitations. It will be used in a commercial project so the license must allow for that. Free and OSS is preferably, but commercial and proprietary is not out of the question if it's worth it.
I don't see html5 as a viable solution at this point so I'm assuming it's going to rely on flash which is fine, but I do not know actionscript. I'm not opposed to learning it, and assume I could pick it up fine within a week, but keep that in mind. If I have to build something myself from the actionscript libraries (I assume they provide enough functionality) I can do so, but I'm hoping for a quicker solution than that.
I am trying to capture video from my webcam to a video display. I created a button on my main application and it gets my webcam just fine. When I try to use the same code inside a class I created it does not work. Does anyone know what could be the problem? Here is my code to capture the webcam.
[Code]...
I'd like to use Flash to capure video from the user's webcam and then save it on the same server that hosts the Flash file. The web server will be running ASP.Net technology. Lot of searches yielded the same lines of code to start a webcam capture using Flash. I can't find anything that sends that captured video back to a server.
I can find lots of blog and forum posts that imply 3rd party software or Flash Communication Server is required to collect it on the server, but I don't understand why. It seems like Flash ought to be able to capture some video and send it as an HTTP post to the same server that hosts the Flash file. That's pretty basic Flash/webcam functionality, right? It seems like we don't need to introduce 3rd party dependencies just yet.
I want to imitate the webcam video record feature that yFrog has on it's site.I know I need a flash media server or a red5 one, but I want to know what flash app do they use and what is available on the net to record videos using the users webcam.

View 7 RepliesWe want to build an application that allows the user to record a video using their webcam on our site using flash and save the URL in a database using PHP. So that we can allow the user to send the video's to other users etc. Also we want to offer the user the possibility to upload their movies (per mail and with PHP) and convert them to flash movies, can this also be done using Flash media server? (maybe in combination with AMFPHP)
