We have Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5, how do you code the html for a video to use the existing (player window) rather than having a separate popup Window that plays they media

We use FMIS (3.5) to distribute our videos, but how can I use HTML5 to view them without duplicating the video to the HTTP VOD directory.Can I point to the application FMS file location like I can with RTMP in some way?
View 2 RepliesSo, I've got my videos set up on the server structure right. I've got them referenced properly in the Flash playback component.But some of the videos on the server stream and some don't.The ones that don't still show up as connections in the Administrator, though
View 5 RepliesMy swf is playing one video in using NetConnection, NetStream and Video object. If I want to stream one more video simultaneously in the same swf I have a few problems. It works when I create more NetConnection, NetStream and Video objects but is that necessary? The code rapidly becomes complex to handle.
Is there an easier way like perhaps share the NetConnection, or something (same FMS server)?
Question 2
The two videos on the stage are suppose to have different size, placement etc. Still the last one created inherit the properties of the first video display. It also starts playing for an annoying couple of seconds before the first one. How can I avoid that (inherit and delay)?
var ns1:NetStream;
var ns2:NetStream;
var nc1:NetConnection = new NetConnection();

I need to build a website which shows multiple instruments in a band, being played in sync. Each camera/video block is a different instrument, and played together, they constitute an entire band. I have been searching high and low for ways to do this, and it definitely appears that HTML5 is out. It looks like standard FLV progressive download is out, too, because it's impossible to get 4-8 videos to sync perfectly.
I see on the FMS page that it has some abilities in synching. How would one (conceptually) go about making a webpage where say 4-8 videos begin to buffer, then when ready, play in sync? And they would also need to, when the location is changed, all sync to that location and rebuffer.
The objective is so that the user can mute/solo each video's audio, to remove an instrument(s) from the "mix" at any time.An alternative way of doing this, I think, would be to just put the 4-8 videos together in video editing, and encode this into one video, but have each video's audio track be a separate audio channel. If FMS can do multichannel audio on one video, this might work, if it could mix them in/out individually, as the user requires.
I am not able to play video on mobile device which is .3gp container and H.263 / AMR_NB encoded. I just want to play my website videos in mobile device also just like[url]....I want to use RTMP and HTTP both. My requirement is as follows - Which codec and container will be best? Should I use FLV to play video on mobile device? RTSP required or can be use RTMP? Is NetStream and NetConnection methods different from Flash Player in Flash Lite Player? How to play 3gp video using RTMP stream ie.ns.play(mp4:mobilevideo.3gp, 0, -1, true) is it ok or any thing else required? For mobile browser and computer browser,can I use single player or I have to make different player for computer browser and mobile browser? It would be better if I can do it with single player for both mobile and computer browser. Sample code required for testing. If you can.I got below article in which they mention that we can play video 3gp container in mobile also.

View 2 RepliesI have my shiny new FMS 3.5 server. There is the multi-rate example which provides a "Cut and Paste" object tag to embed the video.... e.g.

I paste this into a web page hosted on another ( ordinary, nonFMS ) server, I see the player show up, but after 5 seconds I get message that the player cannot connect, please click Play to try again. Of course same work fine if the page is hosted out of webroot on the FMS server. So I assume the "example" does not include absolute URL's so I tried hacking in full URL's for the swfs/videoPlayer.swf and the rtmp:/ URLs to no avail. Which makes it a pretty poor "example" IMO. I also noticed that the .smil file itself also includes a relative URL to the vod app, I modified that as well - the object tags still works only when hosted from the /webroot folder.
So what should this "example" really look like with absolute URL's to use in a real way? Also is there some content protection mechanism which is preventing this from being embedded in other pages not hosted locally?
I have a web page that allows users to upload video files. Part of the process is that once a video is uploaded it goes through the flvcheck to make sure it is good. For some reason when I upload a large video (over 1.5 GB) it fails the flvcheck. When I run flvcheck manually on the video, it passes.

[Code]..
Is there a possibility - instead of attaching a camera [via ns.attachcamera()] to a netstream - to "attach" e.g. BitmapData to netstream. The reason is, that I use BitmapData's .draw method to get the webcam video in order to change it, such as with the .treshold method. And I want to record and save these altered bitmaps (as a video) on the FMS instead the original webcam video.

Two videos are shown, the left one is the original from the webcam, the right one the "modified" video. Only the modified video shall be recorded via the netstream .publish method.
I have installed Flash media server 3.5, and i have put my vod files under 'C:Program FilesAdobeFlash Media Server 3.5applicationsvodmedia'
the sample file under this folder given by fms 'sample.flv' is playing fine, (this has VP6 as video codec, mp3 as audio)
"rtmp://my_SYSTEM_IP/vod/sampl"
where i have kept my own file called 09.flv which has H263/mp3, and one more 09_1.flv, which has H264/mp3. But both of the files are not streming. When i tried to play these over vlc it sayes file not found. But sample video plays. Is there any way to make work vod files to stream?
Uses can log into my site and record camera videos to FMS, and now I want to present videos that belongs to a specific user in a classfied way,that is: videos those are being recordedvideos those have already been recorded, how to do this with FMS? I'm thinking of doing this by storing such information into the database with server side as,using onConnect and onDisconnect,but that's not the most stable way IMO, I don't know whether FMS has a native support for this kind of job...

View 12 RepliesAs stated above, I wanted to know if I can take a video playlist, say with 4 clips, and have FMIS create a separate file out of the 4 individual clips. Specifically, a user selects 4 (or any number) of clips to create their playlist, then at the end, a 'full length' file is created. If this isn't clear, let me know and I'll try to elaborate.
View 2 RepliesSo I've built a player to play playlists and it uses my own DynamicStream class (not the abobe one). I've ran into an issue with playing the same video multiple times. In this app there will be many occassions when a video may be repeated in the playlist up to 3 times. Here's an example of the problem:
Lets say I have 2 videos in a playlist and they are the exact same video. They both are the low birate version. The fist video dynamically swiches to different bitrates seamlesly as planned. If I fast forward the stream to the begining of the second video it starts playing and if my bandwith is ok it wants to switch to a better bitrate. It swiches but instead of being seemless it plays the second video from the begining again. So, I'm thinking this is where oldStreamName comes in. So I add the oldSteamName and make sure its correct, but the problem with that is if the same video is in playlist more than once then the transition never even happens.
getting started with the FMS Interactive 4.5 In the documentation it says to turn off proxying to apache on port 8134 and use port 80 in order for http dynamic and http live streaming to work properly. Since I changed Apache conf to use port 80 I assume my video root will be under webroot/vod, webroot/dvrcast_origin, etc, right?I don't see the dvrcast_origin or livepkgr folders under the webroot though. Do I just need to copy them under webroot for it work properly?
View 1 RepliesI need to do stream uploaded videos to only particular group. It should not be forwarded or back warded by viewers. It should be just like telecasting videos in Television.For example, I just uploaded a video (30 mints length). I shared the video to my friends at 5.00 PM and My friend shared the same video to his friends at 5.15 PM. So It should be like playing uploaded video from 5.00PM to 5.30 PM and the same video from 5.15PM to 5.45PM to my friend's friends. It should be like playing(telecasting) one video to many people at different times and Viewers cant forward or backward. Just watch it only once.
