I'd like to hear some opinions about using NetGroups VS. using direct p2p connections between everybody, considering there would either be 2,3 or 4 people max in the group.
View 1 RepliesWe bought FMIS 4.0. Is some other license required to multicast?
View 1 RepliesI have been running FMIS 3.5 for about 18 months, and recently it started acting up even though I have not made any changes. After a while (sometimes days, sometimes hours), it starts rejecting new connections, but it allows existing connections to keep working. If I refresh my app, then I can't reconnect. The license I have is unlimited. Can anyone shed some light into why this is doing this and what I can do to fix it? Sometimes it happens when only a couple dozen people are online, and today it did it about 4 times with over 1500 people online.
View 1 RepliesI have a setup where I have some edge servers (as in <Mode>remote</Mode>) that pull content from an origin server. I only want to allow RTMPE connections to the edge server. I'm trying to do this by using the <DisallowedProtocols> element on the origin server. I'm setting: <DisallowedProtocols>rtmp,rtmps,rtmpt</DisallowedProtocols>
in the relevant Vhost.xml on the origin server. However, when I do that, proxying through the edge server stops working. I get a "Connection attempt rejected by FMS server [ Server.Reject ] : Connection failed." from OSMFPlayer (which I'm using for testing) and these lines show up on the origin server's core.00.log file:

I am trying to make clients to connect FMS4 server over RTMFP for my video conferencing application.It is basically a client-server media relay application in which clients with webcam/mic connect the server and the server relays video/audio data to other clients. This application is working perfectly with FMS 3.0 but it was RTMP rather than RTMFP - I simply replaced 'RTMP' with 'RTMFP' in netConnetion and tried to test in Flash Media Development Server 4.0, but it is failed to make a connection from a client - it was working after replacing it back with 'RTMP' of course.
I believe server-client media relay is possibe using RTMFP in FMS4 because Adobe said:"Although RTMFP is often used for peer-assisted networking applications, you can use RTMFP in unicast, broadcast, and multi-point publishing applications as well. Simply replace the RTMP protocol in the NetConnection.connect() call with the RTMFP protocol:" in url...
I am looking for a sample media player using OSMF for RTMFP P2P streaming media.
View 2 RepliesI 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.
We're on the way to buy a 1 CPU license for FMES4 and I'm looking if anyone can provide real world benchmarks. We will use a Intel X5680 CPU with dual Port 10Ge NIC and we're wondering how much concurrent p2p RTMFP Session the server will be able to handle.
If a p2p RTMFP Session can not be created we want fallback to another server instance with the cheaper FMIS4 on it, is this the right way to handle this?
I'm using the RTMFP protocol to publish and play video and audio, but i'm with a little problem. I installed the FMS 4 Development Server in a Windows Server machine located in our local network and it works perfectly. In order to deploy our application, we have a remote server with a fresh install of the Ubuntu 10.04 Server, and the FMS 4 installed in this server. In other server we have the Java and Flex application, which will be used in the client browser.
The problem is that when trying to change the NetConnection url to the remote FMS server, which is the Ubuntu server, the netconnection can't connect to it. When changing to the RTMP protocol it connects, but with the RTMFP don't. I can't find any information in the log files or anything else.
How is it possible to determine in advance the max number of simultaneous connection for my FMS?
View 2 RepliesThe attached image shows 17 client connections. Unfortunately there are not 17 clients connected to that app. In fact, I add users to a userlist shared object in application.onConnect(), and that shared object only reports 6 connections. That is the accurate number of connected users.
Why the phantom connections? Even if I unload and reload the app, the 17 client connections return.
How can my userlist shared object and the client connection number be out of sync? This situation seems to be related in some way to an FMS memory problem that is cropping up all of a sudden. When I have larger numbers of connected clients - say 300, the client connections reported in the FMS console are ten times that - like 3,000 or more. Then the application is unloaded by FMS for being a memory hog.
The app itself is simple. It just stores each user in a user array and passes chat communication to and from these users. The last time this main.asc code was changed was 2/8/2010. No problems with it in the countless times we've used it since then. Why the sudden phantom FMS connections, memory hog behavior, and constant unloading of the app?
URL...I am running application instance that implements publisher/subscriber on video streams. Application code is very thin and can be removed completetly if required. In a specific time, randomly, disconnect messages stopped happening which causes the folowing:
1. Streaming service shows decrease of bw per second
2. Users count is increasing linearly.
3. No disconnect messages apears on access.0x.log
I have FMS 4 and a videochat app (one-to-one), everything runs smoothly until about 750 users (it means about 1500 connections to fms), then I get a sudden drop in users connected to 300-400, no errors in the fms log and the cpu/memory usage is at about 25% just before this. I'm running Windows 2008 R2 Web (x64) and I've red somewhere that maybe this version of windows has some connection limit that could be the cause, but I've no idea of what could be happening.

View 1 RepliesI built a simple rtmfp app using flash builder (I tested using the cirrus dev key to make sure it connects) but I cant seem to use the rtmfp service on my fms development server. Ive modified the index.html (in the webroot dir on the fms computer) to provide a link to a folder containing the html file and the swf file generated from my flash builder project. When I type in "rtmfp://localhost/" on my app I receive a "NetConnection.Connect.Failed" or a "NetConnection.Connect.Rejected" (if i do it directly on the fms computer).
Do I need to place my app in the "applications" directory to run properly? Ive checed the adaptor.xml file and everthing seems correct, I even added my public ip to the host port field, is there some confguration I missed?
Im not sure what Im doing wrong, Ive double checked my router and the fms computer's firewall thorugh a port scan and found the ports to be allowing traffic through.
Does FMS 3.5.2 in development impose restrictions via the origin of connections? That is, does it only allow localhost connections via ActionScript (NetConnection) or are external connections allowed?In other words, can I have FMS in dev mode on a dedicated server and then have my client code running on a different machine that opens connections to this development server?
View 2 RepliesIn multiple instances, limiting the maximum number of connections for the same IP?You give me the answer is to limit a single instance, whether there is a way to limit the number of users of the entire connected to the FMS?
View 5 RepliesI'm using FMS 3.5 to record streams to the server as flv files, and would like the ability to directly download those generated flv files. Assuming these files are sitting in my applications/recorder/streams/_definst_ directory, how can I open up this directory to allow direct download via a url? Something like http://<ip ddress>/applications/recorder/streams/myfile.flv. I'm guessing this is just something that I need to put into one of the configuration files, but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring this one out.
View 3 RepliesI have established Flash Media Server 4.5 on the house computer with win7 a router wasn't present, the cord goes on a straight line to the computer, at me allocated IP. I want that it was possible to address to the server from the Internet. At first video was started only on a local computer, then after change resolved ип in "adaptor.xml" the starting page of the server has started to open with other computers and examples work, video plays. But to incorporate on "rtmfp" leaves only from that computer on which there is a server (under the test on http://cc.rtmfp.net/all green points and one more too with all green points) leaves that computers can incorporate to the server on "rtmp" as the example of the server with video translation works well, but on "rtmfp" connects only those at whom green points.

View 6 RepliesWe have a custom application that is running on FMS. Server is dedicated just for fms, there is only one application running on the server, with more instances, average traffic is 3-15 simultaneous users.The problem is,server suddenly stops accepting connections (after 1-3 days from restart), from this point it is impossible to connect to any instance, and fms server must be restarted.When the server crashes, the admin console can see all open instances, can close instances, can restart fms. There is nothing logged, that would explain this sudden failure.Second problem is, cores are connected and disconnected too often, causing client to reconnect (takes 2-5 seconds).

Live stream parameters:
320Ñ…240 qua_=87 bw_=200000 kf_=5 fps_=18
So, after approximately 600 connections to one stream video becomes choppy (periodically freeze, slow motions). CPU-usage at this time is 100-120% (maximum is 800%, 100% per each core), network usage is 500 Mbit/sec.But second live stream(with few connections) at this server looks fine simultaneously with 600 connections at first stream.Experiments with recommendation in "Configuring performance features" documentation chapter(enabling/disabling aggregate messages and configure the size of stream chunks) do not help.
I'm trying to find out how I can tell how many users are connected to the same FMS application in a flex application:
public function totalConnectedUsers():void{
lblText1.text = "There are a total of " + bindableUserVariable + " Users Connected to the Stream Now";
}
I've been trying to figure out FMS for about a week now. Because of company firewalls, all traffic must go through either port 80 or 443 (I configured this in FMS.ini). I also created a self-signed SSL certificate and configured the adaptor.xml file to use it. Nevertheless, here are the problems I am experiencing: For RTMPT & RTMPTE, I can't start more than 9 connections. Beforing configuring FMS to also use port 443, I could only get about 4 connections. Now I would like to say that I testing this between only two computers, the FMS server with apache web server and a client.why it will not at least start 10 connections which I know is the limit for the dev version? Also, when using RTMPS I can only start 1 connection. Why is that?
View 4 RepliesI see that the new Flash Media Servers were released. Looking over the information on the product pages, Flash Media Enterprise Server 4 is the only available product that supports RTMFP connections?
We currently have Flash Media Server 3.5 and our product utilizes RTMP connections, but I've been working with your Stratus Server and RTMFP and have found that the new protocol better fits our needs. However, the price for Flash Media Enterprise Server 4 is beyond our budget. Is there any possibility that RTMFP support are/will be available in the lower levels of Flash Media Server?
