If I place an set of FMS servers behind some reverse proxy caches, will I get problem with SWF verification if the cache layer caches the .f4m meta data file with the SWF verification data? Is there any documented best practice on the requirements to build large scale deployment with security enabled?

Do FMS cores share the same FLV cache or does each core have it's own cache?

View 2 Repliesis it possible to activate SWF verification also without streaming any video or audio? I'm just interested to use FMS to secure my flash application but I don't need to stream any media files.
View 1 RepliesSomebody I know can't watch because they have a proxy server.The nc.connect() call to get the live stream fails because it goes direct from AS3 to FMS and doesn't go through the proxy server.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to use Apache to proxy/tunnel RTMP(S) traffic through to Flash Media Server?Basically, I want to tunnel RTMP traffic using HTTP through Apache.What I want to be able to do is open up an appropriate port (either 80 or 443) on the Apache server and have that proxy traffic through to Flash Media Server. The reason I ask is that I have set-up this scenario but I keep getting a "NetConnection.Connect.Failed" error message; I captured the network traffic flowing between my machine and the server and it is connecting to the server, just nothing happens after that.Do I have to connect directly to Flash Media Server?
View 1 RepliesI have two servers running FMS 4 (exacyly the same version). On one server, when i add a swf in the folder application/vod/SWFs, the swf is "added" 5 minutes later as authorized swf, according to the UpdateInterval config value. On the other i have to restart the server. I checked every config file of both server, they are exactly the same (except few values depending on the servers themselves, of course, like IP, host, etc...).Anyone has an idea on what could be the problem on the first server? This is very annoying since a restart disconnects all my customers!

View 2 RepliesWe're using FMIS 4.5 exclusively for recording streams from webcams via RTMP. We don't have a lot of load currently, maybe a couple hundred videos being recorded every day. Every 1 or 2 days the FMS starts logging "The FLV segment cache is full" and refuses to record anymore until a restart. I've adjusted the cache setting to the max for Linux:I suspect that it's putting everything recorded into the cache, and refuses to record anymore when the cache is full. Why is it doing this? The files are written to disk, why won't the data be evicted from the cache? Am I misunderstanding what's happening?

I know I can call my server directly from javascript. However, I want to do this through a non-GUI SWF file. I'm fairly new to Flash but have gotten all the CS3 tools from work. Does anyone know of any examples on:
1. how to make a web request from within flash provided the URL, post content, and timeout
2. how to call a Flash API from javascript asynchronously
3. how to detect whether the browser being used can support my SWF (I don't want it to prompt to install Flash if they don't have it yet)
I'm actually hoping someone has already done this and has a sample already built.
I'm trying to use JMeter to test our web application and I'd like to use an automated recording of tests but our UI is in flash/flex. Is there any way to get the proxy server to cooperate with the flash/flex? I do have control of both the client and server sides, though rewriting our application to redirect the flash/flex calls to another address isn't really an option. If there were an automated way...
I'm currently testing Windows client and server, but I also need to support testing on Linux client and server. If tests need to be created on one or the other and can be ported to both I could live with that.

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to troubleshoot a Flash Media Server working with a little video playback application I wrote a few years ago that has suddenly stopped working.I'm using CS3/Actionscript 3.My app uses the FLVPlayback Component, and was working well last time I checked. I recevied a report that the videos stopped working, and have been looking into it.I figured I'd add a bunch of event listeners to the FLVPlayback's ncMgr.netConnection so I could get debug info on things like io errors, net status, etc.The problem I'm running into is that the netConnection is null when I set it to anything on my Flash Media Server, and adding any event listeners to this netConnection throws errors.Here's what I've tried so far:
Playback of a local FLV file works fine.In the FLVPlayback documentation, I found an example and stole the URL of the stream they were using in the example, and that works fine, although it is an HTTP protocol stream rather than RTMP.Any attempt to access FLV files on my Media Server, which has worked fine in the past, basically cause the FLVPlayback object to sit and hang in "buffering" mode and never progresses beyond this point.The netConnection object in this case is null.Here's my code:[code]........
Again the purpose of this is to troubleshoot the video streaming from the Flash Media Server, and it seems like there is no netconnection to the server being created.Does this mean that the server is not working, or is there a problem with the way I'm trying to access the content on the server?This was all working fine before, and I have set up the server-side application .ASC files and such to allow things to work fine on the server end.

View 4 RepliesI'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.

View 8 RepliesWe purchased FMIS and we are encoding large 15+ hour MP4 recordings using flash media encoder. When opening these large files for playback, which have not been opened recently the player displays the loading indicator for up to 4 minutes! Once it has apparently been cached on the server it opens immediately from any browser even after clearing local browser cache. So a few questions for the experts
1. Why is it taking so long to load the file. Is it because the MP4 metadata is in the wrong format and the file is so huge? I read somewhere that Media Encoder records with incorrect MP4 metadata is that still the case?
2. Once its cached on the server, exactly how much of it is cached. Some of these files are larger than 500mb.
3. What fms settings do you suggest I change. FMIS is running on windows server R2 64 bit, but FMIS itself is 32 bit. We have not upgraded to the 64 bit version. We have 8GB of ram. Is it OK to set FMS cache to 3GB. And would that only have enough room for 3-4 large files, because we have hundreds of them.
is it possible fast forward, rewind video in flash media server through flash action script ?
