I need to change the default location of VOD media files from opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/media.what I did:1. Created a dir test under default "media" dir2. Placed my f4v files inside "test" dir3. Modified applications.xml as follows:
<Application>
<StreamManager>
<VirtualDirectory>
[code].....
I have FMS 3.5 (Streaming Server) installed, and I am trying to have it render media from locations other than default. Here is my setup.
[Code]...
Basically I am trying to render media specific to different departments (test,test1). So "Department Test" media files are under [E:ContentFMSapplicationsvod est] and "Department Test1" media files are under [E:ContentFMSapplicationsvod est1]
According to flashmediaserver_3.5_config_admin.pdf (FMS 3.5.3), FMS determines the correct directory to use for streams in the following order:
Virtual directory (as specified in <VirtualDirectory>)
Storage directory (as specified in <storageDir>)
Default location (the streams folder in the application directory)
So I created a folder called streams in C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvod. I thought this folder would be the default location for the sample application vod. I did not change any configuration settings for the application vod. Everything was set by the FMS 3.5.3 installer. I copied sample.flv into C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodstreams and renamed it to sample6.flv.
rtmp://{fms ip}/vod/sample6.flv d
Did not play in the sample video player installed by FMS 3.5.3. Is this a bug or the default location "streams" folder is simply not "default", you have to set it somewhere in XML?
I have my server configured so that the installation is on c:, and the media files are on d:.To begin with I tested the streaming files in the original installation location and this worked.I've have now moved the vod folder - D:applications:, and updated the FMS.ini file to accordingly look for the applications folder on the D: and restarted the server.The Administration console is correctly identifying the VOD and LIVE applications in the new location, but all the streams have stopped working
View 5 RepliesActually I am the application is for recoeding live stream. The recorded videos are placing in the folder named live_test as specififed above.But I want to change this path. There is a folder named public in the root directory. In the "public" folder we have a folder named Recorded_Videos, I need to place the recorded videos on this folder. How can I do this.Another issue that occurs while recording is NetStream.Record.noAccess. This is occuring while the recorded video is placing on client's flash media server with the path that i specified above. But when i running it in the local flash media server(developer version), its working well. The recorded files are placed on live_test folder. In the client's server the stream is not recording, instead its showing an error like "NetStream.Record.noAccess". The code that I am using for recording live stream is follows:
stop();
var nc = new NetConnection();var CommPage = 'http://68.233.8.57/videos/destination';System.security.allowDomain(CommPage);

Our problem is: When we used Flash Media Developer Server 4.5 (Trial), we can use Share folder. However, when we bought Streaming Server and deployed with same file structure, we can't use Share folder but Local folder only.
Is there any limitation of using Share folder in Streaming Server?

We had FMS2 installed before and the paths to all our videos are like rtmp://ServerName/sites/.... (the default path on FMS2) Now we upgrade to FMS4 and we would like to keep these paths the same because we have many HTMLs that reference these videos. However, the default path on FMS4 is rtmp://ServerName/vod/... Is there a way to change "vod" to "sites"?

I've setup a simple DVR player using the DVRCast application and Adobe FLVPlayback 2.5 from Adobe tools. I'm able to use it to play a recorded live stream which is recorded by Flash Media Live Encoder.
I'm wandering if I can now use the DVR player to play a video within the vod application?
To start with I just want to copy the f4v file created by Live Encoder to the vod directory and then use the DVR player to play it.
For example in a chatroom with 10 people in, we would need to increase the default of the max streams (or max peers?), because the default is only 8.I know it's not 'MaxStreams' on the FMS server-side configuration, but I can't remember the name of this function.

View 1 RepliesI did an application here to record the user's webcam and store an .FLV at my applications folder. That's ok. But I want to retrive this .FLV using HTTP mode, to load the .FLV progressively, not by streaming. Got it? For example, if I record a user webcam called "myWebcam": myVideoClass.load("[URL]");
Using http (progressively), not rtmpt (streaming). There is some way to do that? Or to move the file from applications folder to webroot?

I've got Flash Media Server 3.5 up and running on a development server and now want to start customizing the install.
The first thing I want to do is to move the applications folder to a remote server/NAS. This is a failsafe so that if for some reason the Flash Media Server goes kaput all the flv files aren't wiped as well.
Can I configure Flash Media Server so that the applications folder points to a remote network drive (via UNC paths) without causing any permissions problems? How do I do this?
The problem I have is that on linux, the flv files generated by fms are having permission 660. Due to this they become kind of useless as I cant do much with them. Is there a way to make fms generate streams with better default permission?

I don't have any issue with port 80 Listening, I used the IP address 192.168.0.21 for my web application (IIS) and 192.168.0.22 for FMS (I only have one network card and port 1935 is open under firewall).

From IE, I can access the default web site by enter http://192.168.0.21/index.html. The website loads up correctly, and the RTMP video is playing perfectly.

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.
