Media Server :: Auto-generate Html For Every New Video?
Sep 14, 2011
We've set up a recording service that constantly populates an FMS application with new .mp4 files. How can we automate the creation of html files on the webserver to point to and stream these new videos? We use the webserver included in the FMS installation.
My CDN is running FMS, and my customers and I stream a lot of live traffic through it. We've got FMS configured to auto-archive our live streams, but that only works for stream using VP6 video. When I look at the archived files captured from H.264 streams I get audio but no video.
Is it possible to get FMS to autoarchive H.264 streams? Or is this planned for a future release of FMS?
I'm trying to make a software which sends video and audio data to a flash media server by using RTMP protocol. Currently, my program can communicate with a flash media server correctly. RTMP specifications does not describe about the raw data in video/audio messages, so I muxed raw H.264 and AAC data into video/audio messages and sent to the server. The server seems to accept them, but a video player cannot playback the stream sending from the server. The player just says "Loading..." For a test purpose, I sniffed the network packets between Wirecast and the flash media server and ripped off only video and audio data. Then, I muxed those data into video/audio message and sent to the flash media server. In this case, the video player connected to the server can playback the stream correctly.
I checked the stream sent from Wirecast, the stream seems not to be H.264 raw data because those data are not started from 0x17 instead of H.264 start code. With those situation, I am wondering what kind of container format I should use for H.264/AAC data to the flash media server.
I am looking for an automated/command line means ofgenerating .swf files for the media files I have in my application.At any given time there could be hundreds of videos in thedirectory and the application lets users upload media to theserver. I know how to create .fla, .as files etc for one file usingCS3, but I am hope there is an easier way to generate these swffiles. I am looking at Flex SDK (specifically mxmlc) to write a cronjob, but I wanted to see if people use other methods.
I'm using Amazon EC2 and AFMLE 3.2. How do I generate a report that will tell me how many viewers I have watching?I figured out how to report on the Kb out in an hour but that only tells me average viewers, asuming they all watched an entire hour I need unique viewers and average viewers at different points in the webcast.
when i try to live stream with FMS! I can stream video with Flash media live encoder to the server but when i create the player to recieve the livestream from server,i can not recieve the live stream,can anyone give me a step by step tutorial of how to do it?
Flash media server 3.5 to stream live video to a webpage with flex GUI embedded in it.For this I have used Adobe flash media server start screen .I could able to stream video correctly.I want to know how long it could be do like this.ie suppose I have to stream like this for 3 or 6 months
I have failed in generating core.I have added a line "ulimit -c unlimited" in server's start function. I killed the fmsedge process by "killall -6 fmsedge". The process do be killed but no core. file is seen in /opt/adobe/fms finally.
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?
I want to have a website where users can record short video clips (using a webcam) and then have those videos saved on the FMS for viewing later. I've seen a lot about streaming video, but I actually want to save the video.
I have an *.flv file on a FMS. When I play it on the client side the video plays just fine, but when I call Stream.play(filename, 0, -1, false) on the server side the video turns out really choppy.I both cases I use NetConnection to connect to an rtmp and NetStream to play the stream, but in one case I connect to a stream and request the server to play my file on that stream. Apparently that doesn't work with files? It works just fine for live streams.
I am testing RTMFP unicast for a video chat project using FM Developer Server 4.0.During the testing I overloaded the upload traffic to make packets dropped rather than suffering delay due to retransmission.
However, I see it makes a significant delay and it looks like doing retransmission just like RTMP.
Do you know if there is an option in FMS to disable the retransmission or other configuration I have to consider?One thing I found is "Netstream.videoReliable=false; Netstream.audioReliable=false;" but it doesn't make any difference.
I am running Media Server 3.5.2. The server is still non production. I copy video files to webroot/vod/video.flv. From the client workstation I attempt to access [URL] and get nothing. It was my understanding video's copied here could be viewed as such.
to generate thumbnails of the streaming video to control de contents of the video streaming. Could I do that in the server side?There is any setting to do that? Could I use the getOnMetadata method to catch a bitarray and then put in into a bitmap file?
I had an flv recording from a webcam.It mostly recorded fine, but there's one point where I paused the broadcast for an intermission.A few minutes later the broadcast started again but the video doesn't play beyond that point, only audio plays.A few minutes later in the recording the broadcast switched to another camera and the video starts playing again just fine from there.I can't seek past the frozen point either to skip a couple of seconds ahead.The freeze is at about 9:00.If I seek to 9:01 it jumps ahead 8 minutes to where the camera switches.What's strange in this is that the video is *definitely* in the file.Using Moyea's FLV Editor Pro I converted the FLV to an MPEG and the whole video is there, so it's not that the camera stopped transmitting, it's just that the playback isn't working.
i am currently playing around with a flash media server trial in combination with the flowplayer.All in all i am testing the performance and general functionality for the company i work for.Anyways, i am trying to search a way to check the bandwidth of a client ( server sided ) and redirecting him to the right video stream.Sure this could be done by the backend flash application, but its out intention to perform this check server sided.
Some users are unable to access any of our video content, getting a Server Not Found error.We have our FMS configured to use ports 1935, 433, 80. Our firewall is allowing RTMP traffic to each of these ports. Is there something more I can do from my end to make sure users can access our FMS?
I was wondering. is it possible to manipulate in any way the video streams on the server side? Like for example,to have two streams coming from two clients and mix them into one stream,so a third client (or more) can play just one stream per client instead of two?
Right now I do not have "server". Example: I do not have anything like windows sever 2000, 2003 etc. but I have and running IIS server on the same Windows XP Pro. On this very same machine I installed FMS server with the Apache that came with the FMS. I have read and followed the instructions time and time again in deferent ways to deploy my video on the server but no idea I used is working so my clients could view my videos. Looking forward to have site like "hulu" / "You Tube".
I created a video live recorder and its working fine locally. Now I want to add the video recorder to my website. What is the steps to add this in my website? Whether I need to buy and install FMS in my server?
I have an flash application that captures a web cam video stream and stores it on the FMS server.I notice when I create a brand new video, and store it on my FMS server, it works fine.When I make another video and my application overrides the file with the new video, this is where I get problems.When I download the flv file from the FMS server, and I play it locally it plays fine, but the timeline is weird.The web player freezes the video during that first 15 seconds.A 30 second video, will have a time line of like 45 seconds, the local flv player is smart enough to skip over the paused part of the video.You will see it skip over the timeline to the good video (from 0sec to 15 secs). The web player freezes the video during that first 15 seconds.
I am looking to broadcast live video and need a camera that is better than a simple webcam. It looks like they used to make video cameras that would register as webcams, but stopped making them.If you wanted to broadcast an event live, what would be a good camera to use?
We'll be streaming a live basketball event next month and we always get asked about showing the game clock with the video.We have two cameras one can capture the game and the other capture the game clock. Is there a way to overlay the game clock video on top of the game video? Has anyone done any similar sporting events that can offer any suggestions and/or best practices?This will be our first live Flash Streaming event, we've used Windows Media in the past and just switched to Flash Interactive Media Server 3.5
