I recorded videos using fms and i want to play them using FLVPlayback component. I've done some research but i cant find somethinguseful, I tried this code :
flvplayback.source = "rtmp://localhost/appname/instancename/video";
I've read the reference here,but it seems to me that I can only make it work with live OR recorded videos.How can I make it work with both live AND recorded videos?

View 1 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.
is it possible to play recorded video file which is stored in another room(instance)? for example, I have file "video.flv" on the server at "/streams/room1" if user is connected to room2, can he ask flash media server to play "video.flv" from the room1; something like this, client side:
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.play("../room1/video", 0);
NetStream.play(streamName, -1); This seems to be working wrong.if I have recorded an flv on server using FMS and FMLE with only audio with name "myaudio" and then after if I try to play a live stream using NetStream.play("myaudio", -1) then it plays the recorded stream. I believe that documentation says that it should start a live stream instead of playing recorded stream as the second argument is -1. Is this a bug in NetStream.play method?
View 3 RepliesI'm having a very frustrating problem with FMS. A stream recorded on the server-side won't play until I restart the server.
The user flow I'm currently working with is:
1. record webcam stream
2. close the stream
3. call FMS function to post process the stream
4. FMS joins the recorded webcam stream with two pre-recorded videos and stores as a new stream
Then, knowing the new stream name, I'm trying to play it. However, I'm always seeing its last frame and it doesn't play. Surprisingly, restarting the server and re-connecting to it helps, then I can play the stream.
So I wonder if (server-side):
var stream = Stream.get("streamName");
stream.record();
stream.play(...);
stream.play(...);
stream.play(...);
I have started a stream from Flash media encoder to flash media server. According to my encoder, it should be located at: "rtmp://localhost/live" and is called livestream.In the Flash software I try and set the source of FLVPlayback component to rtmp://localhost/live/livestream", and I get this error: "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound : Adobe Flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found.". Both the server and encoder is runnind and I am encoding.
View 12 RepliesI have a couple of lessons that I have created in Flash CS3 for Flash Player 9 with AS3.In the main timeline of the lessons I have an flvplayback component setup to connect to our instance of Akamai's flash ondemand application to stream down several videos.
I have a customer who is behind a client side proxy server that is having an issue where the first 10-15 seconds of the any video plays then the video drops out and it appears that the flash player attempts to make a connection on another port which causes multiple audio streams to play but the video never comes back.From the network sniffer read out that their IT send me it appears that the flash player initially attempts to get out on port 80 then attempts port 1935 then attempts 443. if there is anyway to stop the flvplayback component from attempting multiple connections?
I created a stripped out application that just has a flvplayback component in it and when the end user opens that one it streams the video fine. I can only assume that my lessons which are using scorm and webservices to make database updates are reaching some bandwidth limit that the end users proxy doesn't like.

Is there somethign I'm supposed to install on FMS to get it to play properly?
WHat should my path be? I've been told that the flv are living in the fms/applications/storyvideos/streams/videos folder.
I've tried every combination of paths I can think of.
My 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)?

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 1 RepliesAs titled, what is the way to record video/audio files using Flash Meida Server through rmtp, and allow users to access the recorded files through http?What I am trying to do, is to record a user's microphone's input and save it to the server.fterwards, I would like other users to be able to access the recorded files and mainuplating the audio data, by computeSpectrum(), to do some visualization of the audio. As I know computeSpectrum() cannot work on streaming files, so I think I need to access the recorded files using http instead of rmtp. Is that true?
View 1 RepliesI am currently working on a project (AS3), where I have 2 frames, with 2 videos (using the FLVPlayback component) and I want to switch from one video to the next video, however the catch is when I switch to the next video I want the new video to play at the previous video time. Example: Video 1 plays, 10 sec later, you click a button to go and see the next video (in another frame) and that new Video starts 10 sec into it.
This is the codes I been using so far:
import fl.video.VideoEvent;
import fl.video.MetadataEvent;
video1.addEventListener(VideoEvent.PLAYHEAD_UPDATE, timer);
function timer(e:VideoEvent):void {
var newTime = video1.playheadTime;

View 1 RepliesI now have a Windows PC and I purchase Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5 software and install.I but server space on a managed server arrangement.I upload my pre recorded Flash clips to the server and my website and playlist to my host. Basically the website is channelled via http and the clips via RTMP. The key question that no one inside Adobe seems to be able to grasp (or answer) is ~ will it work if I stream my own clips?! or is it inferior to say that of a professional streaming company.The streaming companies charge anything from $125 to $250 a month, a big cost for someone like me, streaming around 1000mb a month. So does anyone out there have direct knowledge of this software and can you stream via rented server space without using a streaming company?

My scene has a video background which scales to the stage size. Then, each section has another video when transitioning in. The problem is that the videos play really slow than they should, very low fps. When there are 2 videos on the stage, it goes even slower. I've tried with embedding videos, using FLVPlayback, wrapping in movieclips, but still the same result. The videos are exported at 30 fps, same rate than the flash movie.
