I'm trying to get the metaData as usual with NetStream object from FMS but in RTMFP protocol but doesn't work.However, with RTMP my code (which is coming from onMetaData example in livedocs)it works.
Is it need any special metchod/properties to get the metadata with rtmfp ?
I'm trying to send metaData from client to FMS server when recording Webcam video and have implemented sending of metaData as stated on Adobe's help page at: http:[url]....
However when I play the recorded video from FMS, my custom metaData properties trace "undefined".I can trace default metaData properties such as duration or videocodecid successfully,but not my custom properties such customProp,width or height. Here is part of my code that is related to the issue: private function
ncNetStatus(event:NetStatusEvent):void [code].....
Does anyone know if the Flash Media Server supports OAI-PMH Metadata Harvesting? We are trying to automate metadata harvesting from the FMS to our online repository, so users will be able to search the repository for videos that reside on the FMS...
View 1 RepliesI have a problem with recorded stream: The MetaData its partialy correct.Most of the informations are correct, but the 2 most important information for me width and height for the video are always 320 x 240 for any recorded stream althow they are published at different WxH.I tried to get my head around this but cant seem to figure out were the problem is.FMLE its used to publish the stream useing H.264 / MP3 codecs.Here is the server side code used to record the stream:[code]....
View 9 Repliesi'm trying to build some kind of online radio. Therefore i'll be streaming audio (mp3) in real time. i have a play-list on my server and the idea is for this play-list to play all day long, but on the client side the user can only do play and stop the music.
The problem is when one music stops and the next one starts i need the server to send not only the new audio but also all the info about this file: duration, author and music name, this way my player can show a play /stop and all the info about the current music playing.Until now i've only come across with video live streaming, but very little information on how to do a live transmission of audio.
ps: the only info on streaming audio that i've found so far is about audio on demand, but the way i want things to happen the client can't chose the music.
I'm streaming live video through FMS 3 and passing the streams to another FMS application to be recorded. While recording, I inject some custom metadata into the stream. Once recording is finished, I move the flv to another location and update my database with the metadata contained in the stream for later reference. All this succeeds without a problem.
However, only sometimes, the default 'duration' metadata (note - I never mess with the duration metadata, merely insert my own fields that are required for other reasons) is COMPLETELY wrong
Are there any way that Flash Media Server isn't able to pass metadata of F4V file into the stream (RTMP) if F4V file was encrypted with Flash Access?
View 1 RepliesI am streaming pre recorded audio files (mp4) to an AIR client. I have tried two different solutions,
streaming the file directly with the NetStream.play("mp4:xxxxx.m4a") and creating a server side playlist, adding the same sound clip and then streaming the playlist. The problem is, when streaming the playlist i get a few NetStream.Play.InsufficientBW, this does not happen when streaming the file direct. Both solutions uses bufferTime=1.0
I would like to use a server side playlist to implement a simple key solution so that the client dont know the full path to the file, but instead sends a key to a custom server side function that looks up the file path and creates a stream for the client.
I want to limit server recorded netstream length to 10 secs at client side using as3. How can I do that?
View 2 Repliesinsert captions into a live flash video stream.[URL]this example uses a Flash client app wich can invoke something like video_nc.call("sendDataEvent",null,inputfield_txt.text);How can do this without any Flash client/environment ? (I of course still use an FMS 3.5) I would like to use a python (or php...whatever) piece of code to extract caption from VBI in the incoming video stream and insert it in the flash stream.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to make an application that streams audio from an audio stream, but the NetStream seems to never connect. I don't have Flash Media Server.
View 3 RepliesI'm creating a video chat app using Flash Media Server 4 and Flex, using RTMFP for peer-to-peer.
No matter what I try, I cannot mute a user's NetStream. I tried receiveAudio(false) and that does not work.
I tried capturing the stream SoundTransform and setting the volume of that to 0, that does not work.
I tried setting the mx VideoDisplay volume to 0 and that does not work.
I can set the alpha of the VideoDisplay, so its really strange that I cannot set the volume.
BTW, I am not trying to mute the mic of the user who launched the app, that I can do. I'm trying to mute one of the other users stream in the Flex app, that way the app makes it possible to not hear people who are perhaps being offensive.
I'm using the following code to attempt to get netStream.time on the serverside.....i've tried various ways googled it but have come up short...what code do i need to use so i can track a streams progress from the server side?
myStream = Stream.get("home1");
setInterval(time,5000,myStream.time); function time(myStream){ trace(myStream); }
I have an FMIS 3.5 app where I am attempting to publish multiple streams to an edge server.I have found that if I loop through my list of streams and attempt to publish to the edge server (i.e. as fast as possible), the publishing will fail They succeed if I have some delay between the publish calls.
View 4 RepliesI am developing a video player for FMS 3.0 and my client complains that when he leaves the player running overnight or after computer goes to sleep when he comes back the elapsed time displayed as NaN and when he tries to play, nothing happens. Why is this happening? Does it mean that the connection with the FMS dropped and I have to reconnect? How can test for the dropped connection?
View 2 RepliesI'm working with a custom made Flash video player using FMS (Wowza, actually).The video is working, yet when I access the BytesLoaded and BytesTotal,I get 0 (zero) for each.This even persists as the video is loading and playing.It's as if it is not even being registered at all.Here's the code:
var amountPlayed:Number = Math.round(ns.time * tlInterval) / Math.round(duration * tlInterval) * tlInterval;
controls.tl.width = Math.round(amountPlayed) * controls.tlw / tlInterval;[code].....
I tested this with a similar player that uses progressive downloading instead, and I get real data.
I'm recording audio using FMIS, the file is being saved out as a FLV file and I am able to play it back. Eventually that file may be deleted after some time and I would like to notify the user if the file is no longer available. I was expecting to see NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound after deleting the file on the server but I'm not getting that message. Instead I get:
--> NetStream.Play.Reset--> NetStream.Play.StartAnd nothing plays which is expected since the file is deleted, but I dont get the right message. I'm calling the file like so:ns.play ("flv:file_to_stream");
I'm streaming mp3 on flash media server 3.5 on linux version, and very often come accross with that problem, when the buffer.length become 0 on client side, the streaming will stop with NetStream.Play.Stop event, and will not be continued. I think this case it should wait always till the data arrives and never should stopping. Some more info : I tested on applications/live folder, and the mp3 files are created dynamically during the playing, and the creation speed is almost the same like the playing speed, so those are not fix files.
View 2 RepliesWould I be able to send a image using NetStream or NetConnection?
View 1 RepliesI have application that uses the send functionally in the NetStream on the server-side. When a connect to the app using rtmp I am able to see the send come thru but if the app uses rtmfp it does notI gone thru all the examples in setting up a mutlicast app and I know the app works because when I publish a video out everyone in the group sees the video. The only thing not working is send. I've also set dataReliable to true.
View 3 RepliesBoth NetConnection object and NetStream object has a client property. Can I use the same client for both objects?
View 1 RepliesI would like to have the possibility to detect when NetStream is not working (i.e. the name used in initialization can't be found on the server side). The StreamNotFound doesn't work at all. I've read that it's the fault of the Flash Media Server, which automaticaly creates new stream, if it cannot be found (of course it's an empty stream - what is wrong from my point of view). Is it true? If yes, can I disable it on the server side, so I could easily detect if the stream name is correct?
View 8 Repliesi've created a sub-folder called dvr under fms 4.0 applications. i made a test of playing a video named sample.flv then at the same time i publish it to the same fms 4.0 server with a different video name: "mergedVideo".the asc at the fms server as following:
application.onAppStart = function()
{
trace("app start : " + application.name);
[code]...
I've googled this and come up empty. All I am trying to do is create a netstream and assign a group to it like so:
var netstream;
var groupSpec;
groupSpec = new GroupSpecifier("foo");
trace("groupSpec: "+ groupSpec);
[Code]...
If I remove the groupSpec optional parameter I successfully connect the NetStream. According to the docs [on this page] I should be able to identify a GroupSpecifier in the NetStream constructor.
Is this a bug? Is there another way to do this?
I notice that, when I pause the video, the event "NetStream.Buffer.Flush" is triggered. And according to the language reference: "Data has finished streaming, and the remaining buffer will be emptied.", I have to re-buffer it, right? However, also according to the reference, it shouldn't stop buffering:Starting with Flash Player 9.0.115.0, Flash Player no longer clears the buffer when NetStream.pause() is called. This behavior is called "smart pause". Before Flash Player 9.0.115.0, Flash Player waited for the buffer to fill up before resuming playback, which often caused a delay.I'm using Flash Professional to do the debugging, and the traced version number is: MAC 10,0,22,91, and the streaming server is FMS4

View 4 RepliesWe are working with FMS 4 server for a while for a 2 directions video application, and it works great with rtmp. We now want to use its rtmfp abilities after we used Cirrus for testing in the last few days and it also worked well. Locally - everything is working fine, but when we try the application on the remote server - we have some problems.

Again, it is working beautifully both locally and with Cirrus. RTMP also works well with the remote server.
I recently had to tell a client that I didn't want to work on their project because I was unclear about something. When you append a recording from a stream does the metadata get updated correctly after the append? I've worked with metadata before and from my recolection anytime a .flv was changed I had to manually update the metadata.
View 1 RepliesI am streaming a playlist of multiple mp4 video files with flash 9 and FMS 3 and have been experiencing strange netStream.time values when the buffering is set for an extra long time on slow connections. When I have my buffer set to something like 60 seconds I'll start experiancing this problem:
the NetStream.time value will return 0 on progress events while buffering, but the moment the buffer is full, instead of reading 0,1,2 +++ it jumps to a really high value, in this case 53.5 seconds, and sticks there until the video (which seems to play correctly from the beginning) catches up to that time and then the netStream.time starts incrementing as it should.
Another relevant fact is that the time the netStream.time gets stuck to always corresponds to the end/begining point between two streams in the playlist. For whatever reason this usually seems to be the third video in the playlist. If the connection is relatively fast and the buffer is set to a smaller value,
I'm trying to add a custom callback handler to a NetStream client in a p2p application. The problem is, when I add such a handler, the NetStream Client doesn't function as it did before. It seems the NetStream.client object is changed. I know the default object is this. But changing the client to this doesn't solve the problem. The remoteControlStream, is the incoming stream. And the localControl stream is the stream being published. This is the localControlStream that's being send by the peer, and received as remoteControlStream:
private function initLocalControlStream():void{
localControlStream = new NetStream(nc, NetStream.DIRECT_CONNECTIONS);
localControlStream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, localControlHandler);
localControlStream.publish(myPeerID+"control");
var localControlStreamClient:Object = new Object();
[Code] .....
The onPeerConnect method of the localControlStream doesn't get called when I connect when the above handler is added. When I remove the that handler, the onPeerConnect method gets called. Obviously the problem is the NetStream.client.
