Media Server :: M$ LifeCam VX-5000 Webcam Won't Interface With Flash?
Aug 24, 2011
I've tried on TinyChat but Flash won't recognize it except as a microphone. I've tried at BlogTV, the webcam shows up in Flash Settings but there's no video output. Webcam does work in it's own LifeCam software & supposedly with Windows Messenger software (hasn't been tested on Messenger). I've installed the Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2 and that seems to be working but BlogTV still won't respond.

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.

We 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)

I 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.

I don't need to stream anything. Just wanting to look at a webcam using Flash. Hopefully be able to control (zoom) a Logitech cam on Mac os 10.6+.
It will be a screen I share in Connect. The video pod in connect is not what I want.

I have this video chat(video, text and audio) program written in actionscript and using FMS as the media server, that I would like to test out with diff comps. I don't have enough webcams to go around and also not all have a built-in webcam. Is there anyway I can use some software to record the screen activity as a video and than stream it over? I am aware that there are softwares that can record the screen activity, but how do I stream it over after that, while still in my video chat applicaton?

I'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 ?

Is there a possibility - instead of attaching a camera [via ns.attachcamera()] to a netstream - to "attach" e.g. BitmapData to netstream. The reason is, that I use BitmapData's .draw method to get the webcam video in order to change it, such as with the .treshold method. And I want to record and save these altered bitmaps (as a video) on the FMS instead the original webcam video.

Two videos are shown, the left one is the original from the webcam, the right one the "modified" video. Only the modified video shall be recorded via the netstream .publish method.

Before 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.

I have implemented an application for webcam broadcasting and receiving. I have tested the application using a developer version of flash media server. Thus its working finely. Also i am recording the stream and storing it in the application folder. The recording feature is implemented with the broadcaster. Every thing works finely while i checked locally.
Now the client installed media server and I tried to set every thing in the server. I placed all the files in the server and created a directory with the name "live_test" in the applications folder inside the Flash Media Server folder. Then I run the application. Thus the status is showing as NetConnection.Connect.Failed.

I'm recording a stream from a webcam as an f4v file using FMS 3.5. The file is created in the live folder, and i can stream it back to the client no problem, however when I try to play the file in Adobe Media Player (or anything else) it won't play. I've used the f4v post processor which claims to run successfully, but with no joy.

My company is about to launch an online teaching product allowing users to use a webcam to record themselves giving a presentation. That presentation can then be submitted to a supervisor to review and comment on. While making their recordings, users can record multiple attempts and review each immediately after stopping the recording. All of this is being done with a browser based Flash application connecting to an instance of FMS 3.5.
All of this is working well. However, we recently found out that due to some of our other products, we are getting hammered with fees based on the amount of bandwidth we are using in our data center. We have made some alterations to curtail these problems, but we are concerned that this new product is going to push us over the edge again. Our original plan was to keep the video stream right around 115 kbps, a relatively low data rate. But when thinking about the expected concurrent users, the bandwidth starts to stack up and really spike.
So we are now looking for ways to limit the bandwidth that this new product will use. One idea was to figure out how to record the video locally when users where recording their test presentations. I thought that was now possible, but apparently that is not yet the case with the Flash Player.
Another idea was to limit the bandwidth that is allocated to each user that connects to our FMS. We are hoping to address the spiking issue with this limitation. I am, however, concerned about what will happen to a video stream that is getting squeezed on the server site. I know when users have limited bandwidth, video files that are published to the FMS are compromised (poor quality). But what happens when the bandwidth is limited on the server side? Do the same things happen to the published video file? Or can the server somehow queue up the data coming in and deal with it in full when it finally gets to it. My guess is that this is not the case, but was curious what others though.

I am building an enterprise application which involves many to many video chat. Most of the chats at any given time will be idle but they still need to trasmit some frames to keep the video chat alive and let other person know that someone is available. Will I be able to achieve this without any media server such as FMS and wowza? I heard about data packet loss during RTMFP. Is that true? What would be my limitations?

There's just one thing I still don't get about the sample app: As a client, you always have to check the checkboxes (send/receive Audio/Video) in order to define who is sending/receiving what kind of stream. How is it possible to manage the feeds from the FMS server? So the clients can't set the checkboxes, but the server determines who is sending and who is receiving?

We've purchased the FMS 4.5 and are now planning an application that lets users record a video to the server using their webcam. Straight forward, if we were to stream only to a flash video object. BUT, we would like our padders to be able to see the videos on demand too. Can't find a tutorial on this, seems like everyone's more interested in live streams.The server is able to record a stream in mp4, but when I'm testing these files in Adobe Media Player it won't play :| What codec is used, and is it possible to play this format on an iPad? If not, is there som sort of solution other than manually transcode to the right format.

i'm developing a web site, and i'm trying to let the user record some video from his webcam. I'm using actionscript and flash media server. I got it work in my delevoper enviroment, but when i deployed it to the production server, the webcam can't get connected to the FMS. I'm afraid this is because of port blocking from the firewall. Does anyone knows wich ports are userd for recording from a browser by the Flash Media Server? I open the 1935 port in the Flas Media Server, but it still doesn't work.

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.

I 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.

goal is to record a stream from a webcam with the best possible quality regardless the bandwith of the user.(it doesn't have to be live or broadcast, just stored on the server)
is it best to record from server side with asc script or directly from the flash player ?what are the parameters on the server that i can play with in order to cache locally the stream if the bandwith is not high enough ?

I'm working in a videoconference system with Flex 4. My problem is in the s:VideoDisplay component. I declare it as follows:
<s:VideoDisplay id="localVideoDisplay" width="320" height="240"/>
And then I attach my webcam:
var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera("mycamera");
localVideoDisplay.attachCamera(camera);
All works properly but when I try to disconnect de cam by using:
localVideoDisplay.attachCamera(null);
It doesn't work. However, this method works perfectly with the mx:VideoDisplay component. How can I do this in a s:VideoDisplay?
