View 7 RepliesI am using the new Flash Player 11 ability to encode H264 video within the Flash Player. I am streaming the webcam via RTMP to a FMS. I am using the following settings:H.264 BaselineLevel 5.1Keyframe freq. 5 seconds25 FPSInput size: 1280 x 720 (720p)Output size: 1280 x 720 (720p)Bit Rate: 1000KbpsWhen I am using these settings with FMLE 3.2, the final stream plays very fluent with a good amount of FPS. If I am using Flash Player 11 for the encoding job instead, the final video is not as fluent as before and achieves less FPS (maybe 5 FPS).So the question is: is Flash Player 11 not as good as FMLE 3.2 or am I missing some configuration?
View 2 RepliesHow can I receive a 1.5Mbit stream from Flash Media Live Encoder and then re-encode it to 2 different streams?t's much like what Ustream is doing. They receive one high-quality feed, and then re-encode to a couple of different qualities in realtime.

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.
After installing FMS 3.5.1, anybody can use my server for live enconding. How can I configure the server to authorise live encoding only from subdomain 1234.4567 or by a password?
View 3 RepliesWe just found out someone is bouncing a pirated feed off our FMIS 3.5.2 server. after months of not having to look at this thing (and not remembering crap about parts of the setup), I'm trying to discover a few things.
First is, how do we tell FMIS which vhost allows live encoding? Second, as I look at the logs and logger.xml, I'm trying to tell how to force it to show the ip's of inbound/outbound traffic. Think I'm doing the right things to the file, but the log for the application/entry point the pirate is using doesn't show what I believe I configured to be the fields that should show up in the log. Finally, trying to figure out how to force authentication of media encoders talking to the server. I'm scanning the online help docs, etc. trying to remember all this stuff.... but if anyone can say "look at this page in the pdf, and this page in the online" to affect what I need to do to lock this up quick,
We have a webcam/chat application that is having bad issues with the video display of a live stream. The application is a bit old (Flex 3.2 recompiled to FB 4.5) and uses FMS 4 which gets it`s encoded streams from FMLE 3.2. The problem is that when a stream is sent using H.264, the playback in Flash is quite bad. Visually, it basically looks like Flash does not always display the "in between keyframes information" properly. Big square pixels from the last keyframe appear instead.

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 ?

View 1 Replieswhen doing a live encode with Flash Media Live Encoder 3 to FMS 3.5, the encoder disconnects randomly after 1 to 8 minutes.It takes about 50 seconds for the encoder to recognize the lost connection, then it re-connects.

View 13 RepliesI need to find out how to layout my bitrates and widths in a way that will:make the switching between to levels (video qualities) as smooth as possible.support a wide range of bw (bandwidth). User with large bw should be fed with a high quality vid and users with low bw should be fed with a low quality vid.support both player widths: 416x240px and 640x340px without doing two different bitrate/with layouts. I have tested the following bitrate/width layot:Q5-Q8 is ment for fullscreen view, Q1-Q2 is ment for our small player and Q3-Q4 is ment for our large player.It works but I'm far from sure that it is the optimal layout. For instance, is it a problem that to videos with different widths have the same bitrate settings or bitrates that lay close to one another?As far as i know, the player (JW Player) will not choose a video that is more than 20% wider than the players width.
View 1 RepliesI'm running Flash Media Streaming Server and have only been serving VOD up until now. I had my network administrator open up port 1935 to the outside world during the setup process and now I can't remember if that was actually required for streaming VOD to clients. Most documentation I've read says that this port should be open, but I seem to recall reading something at one point that suggested it wasn't necessary.
I've just started messing around with publishing live streams using Flash Media Live Encoder to the Flash Media Streaming Server. I have that working without issue but was surprised to find that no authentication is required before a client running the live encoder can publish a stream to the Flash Media Streaming Server. An authentication module is available however it only works with Flash Media Interactive Server and Flash Media Development Server.
If I leave port 1935 open to the outside world, there would be nothing to stop anybody anywhere from streaming video via my server. Anyone else running a default install of Flash Media Streaming Server and with port 1935 open to the outside should see that this is true of their setup as well. I'm wondering if I can safely close port 1935 without limiting the functionality of the server or if there's some way I can require authentication prior to publishing a live stream even though I'm not on the four-and-a-half-times-more-expensive edition of the product.
I am working on streaming programs through "Adobe flash Media Live encoder" in my website.The steps that i done for streaming is
* Installed Adobe flash media live encoder
* In the FMS URL entered as " rtmp://myserver ip/live "
* In stream given as "livestream"
* when i click connect the follwing error is displaying " Invalid primary FMSURL "
The website i am going to implement is [url]... which is done using PHP. Is there anything i have to do in coding to connect the media server.

View 1 RepliesI'm building a video conferencing applicaition for a portal. But now when considering which version of flash media server to buy, I run into some problem. So can anyone helps me about comparing this two versions: Flash Media Streaming Server and Flash Media Interactive server, like if I use Flash Media Streaming Server, some function like NetStream.pause() may not work or something like that? I'm not sure if this is a foolish question but please let me know.
View 3 RepliesWe will only use the servers for Live streaming and VoDs, so far no plan for any complex applications to be deployed on the servers yet. As
far as I understand, the bottleneck of streaming servers are with network connection rather than CPU or resources (servers are only support up to 4GB of RAM anyway).
I 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?
