View 2 RepliesSay I got a live event called game in "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_game" and push a MBR stream for awhile and see the ".stream" files being created, everything works good.
However whenever I stop the stream, delete the contents and try to republish another stream to this event name never recreates the '.stream' files or stream directories.
1. Delete the files "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_gameMsadsaasa.str eam","C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_gameMsadsaasa .stream".
2. Delete all the stream directories - "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrstreams\_definst_game1", "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrstreams\_definst_game2".
Is this normal behavior or is there a default waiting peroid before reusing an event name? Should I only publish to a liveevent name once?
I'm trying to append a live stream to an existing file, but I cant figure out how to open the existing file and then append the live stream. This is server side as well.I know I need to open the existing file using stream = stream.get("file"). but I don't understand how to associate stream with the live stream coming in.

View 2 RepliesIs there a way to stream data instead of media files? In particular I'm interested to stream swf files that will be dinamically loaded by another swf client. I see this interesting message talking about how to do this on Wowza but I prefer to find a solution also in FMS to use the SWF Verification feature.
View 1 RepliesI have a delicate question for you which i cant find an answer to.Problem:I want to add an object (lets say it's a logo) to a camera stream before i save it to the FMIS. So the logo is integrated with the camera as it would have been placed in a layer above.Is that possible and if it is, how do i do it? It is quite urgent so any quick tips or solutions are more than welcome
View 2 RepliesI've finally been able to display a stream inside an SWF but only from FLV files on the FMS server. What on earth do I have to do to play other filetypes FMS supports?
This plays alright:
nc.connect("rtmp://myDefaultFMSserver.com/vod");ns.play("sample");
This doesn't:
nc.connect("rtmp://myDefaultFMSserver.com/vod"); ns.play("mp4:AdobeBand_800K_H264");
Neither does this:
ns.play("mp4:AdobeBand_800K_H264.mp4");
Nor this:
ns.play("mp4:media/AdobeBand_800K_H264");
I'm using the FMS default installed testfiles....
I've made several mp4 file using Camtasia for Mac. No matter what settings or player I use the files won't play. Encoding them from Camtasia Windows version works just fine. I assumed this was a question for Camtasia/Techsmith but they're saying there is nothing wrong with the h.264 files Camtasia for mac is encoding and says this is an Adobe/FMS issue. I'm using the latest Camtasia version and FMS 3.5. I've used several different players and they all play mp4 but not the ones encoded in Camtasia for mac.
View 1 RepliesCan I add overlaying graphics upon the live stream by server-side ActionScript before publish the stream? For example, suppose in case of video conference, I want to put a mask graphic on peoples face to hide them, and change the mask on the fly by server-side code, such as moving it or making it transparent.
View 1 RepliesI am using FMLE and fms 4 ent. When using fmle to broadcast webcam without audio. It goes really fast. I am on 1gbps connection with nothing else coming to the server at moment. I tested download speeds to and from the server and they are around 700mbs. I have tried all the different audio sample and bit rate settings. All have the same result. Once audio is turned on there becaomes a 15 second delay. What am I doing wrong.

According to flashmediaserver_3.5_config_admin.pdf (FMS 3.5.3), FMS determines the correct directory to use for streams in the following order:
Virtual directory (as specified in <VirtualDirectory>)
Storage directory (as specified in <storageDir>)
Default location (the streams folder in the application directory)
So I created a folder called streams in C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvod. I thought this folder would be the default location for the sample application vod. I did not change any configuration settings for the application vod. Everything was set by the FMS 3.5.3 installer. I copied sample.flv into C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodstreams and renamed it to sample6.flv.
rtmp://{fms ip}/vod/sample6.flv d
Did not play in the sample video player installed by FMS 3.5.3. Is this a bug or the default location "streams" folder is simply not "default", you have to set it somewhere in XML?
In my .smil file, if I put this line it works: <video src="sample.flv" system-bitrate="150000"/> But if I put the following line it doesn't work: <video src="mp4:sample1_150kbps.f4v" system-bitrate="150000"/> Both video files are in the webrootvod folder. I am using the sample dynamicStream.smil code, so my syntax should be right.
View 3 RepliesI am using Flash Media server 4.5 and i read the tutorial if i want to stream the live feed, i may need to use the media live encoder.
but what i found in media encoder is i have to manually setup everything and it only support camera devices. But in my case i have multiple video files keep received from another program and place it on file system (server),my goal is use the Flash Media server to perform a live boardcasting with these video file one by one. That means when client watching a live streaming, they will not notice the server is playing mov1, then mov2, then mov3, then mov4... and so on.
You can imagine i am trying to boardcast a live footage say for 60sec, but the video file will not recorded entirely after 60sec, instead for every 10sec i will save a new video file, so that when client watching the live by HLS [URL]when the time reach to 10sec, a mov1 video file available and FMS should boardcast this video on live123.when the time reach to 20sec, a mov2 video file available and FMS should Immediately follow the mov1 boardcast on live123.and so on...Also can FMS dynamically create a new streaming session (invoke by code), so that when client A uploading some video files to the server, the FMS open a new streaming session only stream cilent A video files?the configuration to boardcasting like screen size, bit rate, etc should be pre-defined on the server.

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?
View 1 RepliesWhen I place the .swf, smil and http files on the FMS server the SMIL stream test sample works fine
But When I move the files to my web server I get Connection error. This is the same issue discussed in [URL].. I added a 'base' variable but it did not work for me. The SMIL file has the correct path to the sample files and FMS server <meta base="rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/" />
I am able to stream files from my html file on my webserver not the FMS server by pointing to the FMS server at rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/mp4:sample1_1500kbps.f4v Is this a domain security setting? If so, where do I change it? If not How do I get FMS to stream SMIL files without installing a webserver with FMS?
I have Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (not Interactive) running on RHEL5.5 x86_64 Linux.All is working well, however how do I prevent unauthorized access to connecting to the live stream and streaming content?How can I setup the server to require a user and password to stream live media to the server?I am new to this product and I have been reading some documentation but I have not found a clear cut answer on how to force a username and password to connect to the server to stream live content only.I am using the Adobe FMS Apache install, what files need changing?[code]I want to lock down a person from connecting to the server on the public internet and starting a live stream?Can this be done with a user name and password?

View 1 Repliesclose another live stream B if opening when stream A is closed? Does FMS support this kind of logic?
View 8 RepliesOnly just getting started on this whole domain of learning, so go easy!If I set up a P2P video/audio chat (similar to the sample VideoPhone thing on the Cirrus site), can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it? If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)? Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise.
how effective this kind of situation can be, in terms of quality of the stream and recording? Does any of this make sense?
I've had FMS running on my local machine for a while and have had a little experience writing FMS apps, but I've just tried recording audio for the first time using the standard vod application and I keep getting a "Write access denied for stream" error. My AS3 code is copied and pasted for various examples and am confident that it works.
I'm running Windows XP service pack 3 & FMIS 3.5.
I've had a look at the vod/media directory and under windows->properties the read-only attribute is ticked. Every time I un-tick this it reverts back to being ticked. I've googled this and MS say that most programs ignore the read-only attribute and that it only really applied to files. I've also tried the MS fix for setting the read-only attribute via cmd and still no joy (doesn't fix read-only attribute or FMS recording the audio after setting via cmd).
I've also tried our dev server install of FMS (running under linux) and am getting the same results.
Here's my AS3 code...
private function initApp(event:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,initApp);

My Encoder is setup with three streams: Vid: 500 kbps - Audio: 48 kbpsVid: 800 kbps - Audio: 48 kbpsVid: 1500 kbps - Audio: 48 kbps I start the encoder and everything looks fine in the log. In my browser (Safari or Firefox) I go to my html site and the stream starts after 6-8 sec. But anytime with the lowest bitrate 548 kbps and nothing look like the stream is switching to another bitrate. I tried it with the smil playlist and the result is the same. Only the lowest bitrate is plublished.

View 4 RepliesI'm having a problem with recording a live webcam stream. The last few seconds of the stream is getting cut off.
The recording is stopped with the following piece of code:
vid.attachCamera(null);
vid.clear();
ns.attachCamera(null);
ns.attachAudio(null);
ns.pause();
What could be causing this? Is the stream cut off too soon? Is the client unable to send buffered data to the server?
I'm trying to stream a HDS live multi-bit stream, it seems to push to the FMS but my player doesn't display the stream.Are these settings and files correct? The documenation is confusing on what and which files need to be edited and/or created.

However i need to cap the maximum number of connects to the server for a live event.It seems like the <MaxConnections> tag in Vhosts.xml is not enforced due to a bug in 4.0.1; but its known to work on 4.0.2 (http:url.....)if there's a new AMI available that has the newer release? If not, When will that be available? and can I upgrade the existing server to 4.0.2 ?
