Media Server :: FMIS Multipoint Publishing Setup - Viewing Live Streams?
Sep 1, 2010
I am facing a strange issue with a pair of FMIS servers set up with Multipoint Publishing. Configuration is as follows:
Encoder >>>> FMIS1 >>>> FMIS2
When freshly started, I am able to view live streams from both servers, however, periodically, FMIS2 unpublishes the streams as seen in the log below. When this happens lives streams are accessible from FMIS1 but not FMIS2. In order to resume live streams on FMIS2, FMIS1 must be restarted.
Logs:
2010-09-01 14:31:00 9244 (s)2641173 NGA_1 is unpublishing -
2010-09-01 14:31:00 9244 (s)2641173 FTV_1 is unpublishing -

i have a website like ustream, where user can register and create live channels and publish live video using FMLE.
Now i want to check wether a particular channel is online or offline. I have stream name for particular channel. My website is coded in PHP. I have tried using getLiveStreamStats function, it works fine where the XML file is not heavy. I mean number of subscribers are less. Then i can just check the Publisher Tag. if it exists that means stream video is live, else not.
But problem arrives when the number of subscribers are high. The XML file do not loads in PHP, and it takes too much time to load the page.
what can be done to just check if the xml file has publisher tag. and display if the stream is live or not

I have FMLE source streaming to FMS #1, and FMS #1 is multipoint publishing to FMS #2. It works great, but when I stop FMLE source, the multipoint publishing from FMS #1 to FMS #2 doesn't stop (unpublish), and continues to stream empty (blank black) stream between the FMS servers. So how do I ubpublish the multipoint publishing streams on the FMS #1? Here is my code in application live on FMS #1:

we are streaming 24/7 live from a number of FMLE's to FMS Interactive server to a livepkgr cloned app., and to our clients we stream both to Flash via rtmp and to iOS via HLS.Since we want to introduce another server (to be able to serve more clients), the question is - hot to republish from one to another server so that both servers can stream rtmp and hls to clients?We are already using the backup url in FMLE to stream to a backup server - this we do not want to change since the backup server is just that - backup, if the main server fails.

I have a case where I'm displaying 3 videos simultaneously using FMIS 3.5. When one is selected it will play the other two will switch and show a videoloop.
What is the proper way to accomlishing this. I actually have 6 videos (3 loops and 3 videos). Do I need a netconnection/netstream/video object for all of them or can they share something. What is the best practice?

We have triple checked every possible component from a hardware level up to a software configuration level.Our platform consists of 2 origin servers with 6 edges talking to them (really beefy hardware).Once we inject a live stream into our two origins... we can successfully get the stream out via the edges and stream it successfully via our player.Once we hit around 2200 concurrent connections, the FMIS servers drops all the connections busy with streams.From the logs the only thing we can see is the following.Tons of disconnects with the Status code 103's which according to the online documentation means Client disconnected due to server shutdown (or application unloaded).We simulated the scenario with the FMS load simulator utility and we start seeing errors + all connections dropped around the 2200 mark.
The machines are Dell blades with dual CPU Xeons (quad cores) with around 50 gigs of ram per server... The edges are all on 10 Gb/s ethernet interfaces as well.We managed to generate a nice big fat coredump on the one origin and the only thing visible from inspecting the core dumps + logs is the following [code]From what it looks like above, FMS is hard crashing when trying to use clone(2) (basically it means when its trying to spawn a new/another process).I am really hoping there is someone out there who can guide us in the right direction with regards to how we can pinpoint why our platform cannot cope with a pathetic 2200 connections before the FMIS daemon drops all connected streams.

I have seen lots of different things about recording live streams (maybe too much, pieces everywhere but no one good source for the answers), but not what I am looking for...I want to setup recording of live streams on FMIS 3.5 where the file is named the stream name plus a timestamp (something like streamname-yyyymmddHHMMSS: myteststream-20090928101015).The people who use our site tend to start/stop several times (we are dealing with events that have breaks) and I want to be able to combine all the files with the same name into one big file on the server side afterwards using some utilities.I cannot find a tutorial that walks you through the different functions, the differences between them, and how recording is setup/works.

I'm a bit confused for a choice for my streaming application. I'm note sure if I need the FMSS or the FMIS. We want to place several encoders at clients with FME and they have to stream there source to a Flash Media Server. I want to use flowplayer at the client side. Do I need to have FMIS or FMSS for this live streaming application?

I've been using FMS for a few weeks, and feel relatively comfortable with it, but am currently having some trouble connecting to a live stream in a a video conferencing-type application. I suspect I'm leaving some small step out, but am having trouble seeing what that step is.
I have one client application open the video camera, connect to the FMS, and publish it's live camera stream to the server. Something like this:
Connect to the FMS
nc.connect("rtmp://<ip addr>9/chat_test/");
In my connection (success) handler:
cam = Camera.getCamera();
cam.addEventListener(StatusEvent.STATUS, statusHandler);
...
[code]...
However, I keep getting "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound" errors. This seems relatively straightforward, but I'm clearly missing a small step somewhere.

I am publishing 2 live streams from a computer with 2 video capture cards in it and I get a lag every 30 seconds or so on the subscribers side. I have tried adjusting the camera quality and setMode properties but still the lag persists inside and outside the LAN, is there a way to create a buffer on the server or adjust the way the live stream is received on the subscribers side so there is no noticeable lag? I saw something about editing application.xml to adjust the queue and a suggested bitrate but not sure if this is applicable, here is the link:
[URL]
Here is my setup:
The publishing computer:
2 PCI-e x1 cards, one takes S-Video (480i) and the other DVI (720p)
Windows 7 64bit
Intel i7
6 GB RAM'
GB NIC and Switch
From the switch is one hop to a GB router and out to a 10 MB pipe which leads to our datacenter 30 miles away. The swf on this side just gets the 2 cameras, sets the quality to (0,80) and mode to (640,480,25,false) (I have played with these settings a little) and creates 2 lives streams on the FMS.
The FMS:I am running Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 on my own server with two 3.6 Dual Core Xeon processors and 4 GB RAM. This server resides in a Datacenter and has a 100 MB burstable pipe. From the FMS administration console I am barely using 4MB total bandwidth, 1% CPU usage, 2% RAM.
The subscribing computer:I have used many different types of hardwired PC's within the same LAN and outside the LAN, results are the same.The swf on this side just creates 2 new video instances and attaches the 2 netstreams to them. They are placed side by side and the height and width of these videos are undefined.

I own a site like ustream/justin where users can register and broadcast their channels using FMLE. Sometime I need to ban broadcasters after I receives any complaint against any channel. I do them on website, there is no issue in that. But how to do that on server side at FMIS. I need to do it bcause the stream users are already watching the channel page before it got banned, they still can watch it till they do the refresh. So I need something that can stop the Live Stream of that particular channel on FMS server too. How can I supply stream names to main.asc that should be banned or not to allow publishing without restarting server each time.

I am developing an application where I need musicians to play together and I want to have an audience listen to it. I have created my publisher clients and they can create the streams, but now I want to take those multiple streams and combine them so that you can hear the guitar, singer, etc. all together.

I wanted to know if there is any limit on the number of live streams that a client can connect to?For example, there are four live streams s1, s2, s3, s4 being published to FMS, can a flash client subscribe to all the four streams at the same time?If yes, what is the maximum number of streams that a client can subscribe to and what are the trade-offs?

I'm doing some tests with FMS and live streaming, but I observe quite long delays. When the stream is first accessed, the latency is around 3-5 seconds, which is acceptable. But as we watch the stream for about 30 minutes or more, the latency grows to around 20 seconds, which is just too much. What settings should I look at to keep the latency / delay minimal?

I am able to record live streams on server side. Now I am looking for an option to play recorded streams on server side when no one is publishing a live stream. Currently I am able to record all live streams that are currently being published in /opt/adobe/fms/webroot/live_recorded Folder. All the recorded streams are saved in stream.f4v format. I want to change main.asc in livemyapp folder in such a way that if any one is not publishing live streams of the name "abc" then automatically the client is served with the previously recorded abc.f4v in his browser.
Here is main.asc
/* * application.onAppStart:* is called when application load. It contains Live (out of the box) * application specific initializations. */
application.onAppStart = function(){ // Logging
trace("Starting Live Service...");
[Code] ....
What should I write in main.asc so that if a client is requesting to watch a stream and if that is not being published at the moment, he should be served the recorded version of that stream.

I have a task before me that I have not spent any time researching in the past because I never thought I would have to do it... I need some specific advice from some of you gurus out there.I need to set up a training facility in which we film a teacher in HD and broadcast it live across the internet to 30 locations around town. I also need to have a live chat going with the video in which any of the viewers can ask a question to the teacher and he/she can answer it in the lecture being given.
The 30 locations that the viewers will be at will be a board room setting with an HDTV on the wall , and maybe a wireless keyboard and mouse that they can share to chat with the teacher.I know I can quickly figure out all of the video stuff, like lighting and cameras. I really need advice on all of the technical stuff that it takes for the live broadcast on the internet.
I imagine that I will choose a content delivery network, but which one? I imagine that I will use Flash Media Server, but which version? Do I need a real time transoding device to feed the analog HD video signals to to feed it to the computer? The company has T1, is it fast enough on the uploading to get what we need done?

My Purpose is to record live streams on server side and play recorded files later. What I have done is -
1. Copied All files of applications/live in some safe location.
2. Copied all files from samples/applications/live to applications/live folder. (Deleted main.far from live folder)
3. Restricted SWF and HTML to mydomain in these files - allowedHTMLdomains.txt and allowedSWFdomains.txt
4. In main.asc I added these line in the end
var mystream;var intervalID;
[Code] .....
5. Then I restarted FMS and tried streaming using FLash Media Encoder. I was able to live stream and then i stopped it.
6. A FLV File was recorded in application/live folder with the stream name that i used in encoder.
I am able to view live video on my domain as well as some other domain, that means allowedHTMLdomains.txt and allowedSWFdomains.txt did not worked. Another issue is that I am not able to view recorded video after I stopped encoder but I was able see live video before stopping. I am using jwplayer to view the video and using flashvars streamer (rtmp://xx.xx.xx.xxx/live) and file(abc) to view the live and recorded video.

I need to serve live video streams to Flash players, Apple devices, and Android and Blackberry handhelds. Right now I'm using FMS (actually, the CDN I stream through is running FMS), and configuring Wowza Media Server to suck the Flash stream from FMS and reprocess it for Apple, Android, and Blackberry. It works well, but it's kind oif a PITA having to have a separate server just to handle mobile devices.
Is anyone aware of any plans to release a version of FMS that will stream directly to Apple and Android? I saw a video clip on Techtilt of an Adobe presentation at NAB where they were showing live streaming to iPad, but that clip didn't way anything about when we might actually see that version of FMS become available.

When broadcasting pre-recorded streams on a live applicationFMS always stops streaming at a certain time...
It can be after 10 seconds, it can be after 2 hours, or it can be after any other time, the frame just freezes on the client and the buffer drops to 0.
any attempt to diconnect / reconnect does not resume the streaming, althought the FMS console registers the connected client, no streaming is ensuing. One of the common events we get on the client in such instances when the streaming stops results in get "NetStream.Play.InsufficientBW".[code]...

1) I currently have multi point publishing set up to rebroadcast a stream between several servers. I'm running into an issue where even if it's a live stream, when a client connects, it starts from the beginning and you have to seek to the very end for it to go live.I've attached my main.asc file
application.onAppStart = function()
{
trace("Application name: " + application.name);[code]........
2) Is there any way to set up multi point publishing on Video on Demand files?
3) Say server 2 has restarted, is there anyway to force a push to that server without having to restart the feed?
