We just upgraded our FMIS from 3 to 3.5. All our VOD streams were working prior to the updgrade. Now the streams do not play. When logged in to the admin and checking the Server Log, this is the message. I assume this is correct. I have **** out the address.

Is there anything more that I can check to see where this is failing?
I recently upgraded from FMS 2 - FMIS 3.5.Over our internal network videos stream like a dream!However, accessing them from outside our own network means that they take about 20 seconds to load, or sometimes just get a message saying the server isn't found.This wasn't a problem with the FMS2 and there have been no changes to firewall settings or anything like that since the old server was up and running without problems.I have the new server set to use exaclty the same ports, but wonder if there are some other settings which could be causing this?Networking isn't really my area of expertise, and I have no idea where to start looking to improve things.
View 2 RepliesI want to record a stream which is published with Flash Live Encoder to FMS 3.5, but split the recording in files with predefined length. For example if a stream 'webcam' is published I want to record it in chunks of 10 minutes: 'webcam1.flv', 'webcam2.flv' ... From what I can tell there's no facility to work with timers. The only solution I could think of was using stream.record() with a time limit parameter but that seems like a hack because it triggerstStream.Record.DiskQuotaExceeded on the stream when the recordin should stop and start recording another chunk. Has anyone done something similar?

View 2 RepliesAfter our upgrade some of our streaming media files no longer stream... I have performed an flcheck on the files in question and they are returning the following error:

Found a track childbox before track. At this point we have a large majority of the files that normally streamed quite normally and fine in 3.0 not streaming at all in 3.5 I hate to back out of the upgrade, but if we can not find a solution to this problem it will have to happen.
I am running the amazon AMI ami-6a1deb03 that has fms version 4.0.1.8011
However i need to cap the maximum number of connects to the server for a live event.It seems like the <MaxConnections> tag in Vhosts.xml is not enforced due to a bug in 4.0.1; but its known to work on 4.0.2 (http:url.....)if there's a new AMI available that has the newer release? If not, When will that be available? and can I upgrade the existing server to 4.0.2 ?
Our Adobe rep has indicated we are eligable for FMISv4 upgrade. The option doesn't not appear on our volume licensing site. How do we upgrade?
View 1 RepliesI sucessfully upgraded from FMS to FMIS. In the Admin it shows that the license is now Flash Media Interactive Server r405 I believe. The live and vod services continue to work as expected. On a separate development server I have developed a number of applications that I want to move to the new production server. Nothing connects at all on the new server. In the Admin, all the applications show as being available. Is there something I need to do to make it work?

View 1 RepliesI'm using the server Stream.play() method to playback a recorded stream, it plays back fine until it hits the buffer limit (Say I set the buffer to 5 seconds, it will playback fine for 5 seconds). But then it freezes and playback is very stuttery (1 frame every 2/3 seconds). Is this a know issue? I'm using windows 2008 server. I've tried a few things to resolve this but no luck. The server is running the dev license and has no load.

View 5 Replieswe are using FMS 2.0. I need to patch the buffer overlfow vulnerabilities. The doc that Abobe supplies with the patch/upgrade releases is confusing. The doc for the 2.0.1 recommends uninstalling 2.0 prior to the 2.0.1 installation. Upgrades 2.0.2 and up do not state this.. However, installing 2.0.5 specifically mentions patching v 2.0 vulerabilities, but does not mention uninstalling first OR that prior patches need be applied...And, finally version 2.0.2 - 2.0.5 do not mention is the patches are cumulative - are they?

I'm trying to figure out whether or not it's possible to have two incoming streams to the same FMS server. Every time I try to search this information, I find stuff on having multiple outgoing streams, but nothing on multiple incoming streams.
The two streams will have the same content, but will use different video / audio codecs, and be set to different resolutions / bitrates.
I don't want to spend the money on another server, so it'd be great to know if FMS can do this..
Is it possible to mix audio streams in fms (like fmg)?
View 3 RepliesDoes anyone know if it's possible with any of the Adobe products to automate and manage streams?
We've got a project that will be streaming pre-recorded video and music. Due to the number and frequency of these streams we need a way for us to automate and manage these through our own CMS system.
We will be ultimately pushing these streams out to our CDN provider so no end user streaming actually required.

View 9 RepliesI'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);

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:

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.
Can Flash Media Server 3.5 do the following?. Can it take multiple live streams?. Is it possible to control the ip streams - by using API's in to the Media Servers?.

View 1 RepliesFlash Media Interactive Server 3.5 or later supports recording of streams using the H.264 codec, directly on the server. Archive high-quality live streams so you can quickly deploy the content on demand after your live event is over, and use the free F4V flattener utility to prepare your file for video editing using Adobe Premiere Pro CS5."
there is no problem to record the stream in flv format but i don't find a way to record using h.264 compression
Is there a way to save FMS streams as files, such as AVI, MPEG or MP4?

View 2 RepliesWe have FMS 3 on a server I'll call "Streamer" We have a public webserver running IIS on a server I'll call "Web Server". We host our website on Web Server, and both Streamer and Web Server are behind our firewall.
I made a page on Web Server with a flash file that has a Player which goes to [url]...
When we navigate to www.domain.com/test.html (which has the embedded video) from inside the network, we get the video streamed to us. However, when we get a laptop with an aircard connection up (to simulate a request from the web), the user gets a blank flash file with no video whatsoever.
On Streamer, the log file shows the IP address of my PC (the PC that made the request from the video inside the network) so that makes sense. But it shows no other request being made (like when the laptop/aircard made the request from the web).
We used wire shark and sure enough it showed that from Web Server to Streamer, there was traffic when it packet captured the internal request. But there was no traffic when the public request was made.
