I have changed the variable <MaxConnectionRate>2</MaxConnectionRate> base on the URL - "Limit connection requests",but more than 2 client can connect to the server.
Is that other settings to config to restrict the number of simultaneous users?

How is it possible to determine in advance the max number of simultaneous connection for my FMS?
View 2 RepliesYou can restrict the number of users on a flash server applications using server-side scripting.Here is how.
1. Go to the flash server root/documentation/samples (Lets say its a live streaming aplication).
2. Copy the livestreams folder to your flash server root/applications and paste it inside the folder.
3. Open the main.asc file that is inside the folder you just pasted.
4. At the end of the code paste the following code:

Has there been any further discussion regarding restricting who can stream to FMSS (not FMIS or the development version).
I found this article, but I don't know if this was ever fully resolved:

I don't want just anyone to connect to my server to stream live. I want to restrict by IP address, authentication, or any other means.
I want to restrict unauthorised edge servers connecting to my core server . How do i do it?
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 involved in project managment for a large video conferncing project involving over 100k simultanous connection and most likely to be increased 4 times by next six months.While figuring out the scalability area ,it was concluded that smart selection of hardware and origin-edge clustering will be suited most. Well while studying this documentation says it supports thousands of calls but unfortunately I could not determine the actual numbers. Can you tell me how many edge server will be needed for 100k simultanous calls/number of sessions per edge server and will we need license (4500$) for each edge server?

Would I edit these files for that restriction, how do I put the IP range in format wise?
/opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod
allowedSWFdomains.txt
allowedHTMLdomains.txt
Would I add the IP range in this files for each virtual host, I have 3 of them?

I do not want to impact the ability to view live streams, it will need to remain open.
I'm usig Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.0.1, it works fine, no major problems, when the internet between Media Encoder and Server stops, some times the stream doesn't start automatically.I have a problem with users(viewers) trying to connect to server. The server is connected to fiber optic internet at 100mbps and the stream is made in 500kbps with media encoder 2.5.
When are 40-50 simultaneous viewers works fine, but when enter more viewers, for example, 200 simultaneous, nobody cam receive the stream good, it works frame by frame or flash player display "buffering", work 3 seconds and buffer 5 sec,and so on.HOW I CAN RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM?it is possible to connect milions of users simultaneous, how can i do that.I need more servers to connect each to each other? Could you send me a diagram how to do that?I need to increase the ram memory from server?( i have P4 dual core 3.0 Ghz, 6 Gb ram 800Mhz).
I would like to know the number of connection allowed in the free developer ediiton of Flash Media Server.
View 4 RepliesIs that possible in FMS interactive? By regular, integrated means of the server itself? Without writing any code, just by using regular administative tools for FMS? Just simple "restrict encoders by IP" function.
View 2 RepliesOnly just getting started on this whole domain of learning, so go easy!If I set up a P2P video/audio chat (similar to the sample VideoPhone thing on the Cirrus site), can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it? If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)? Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise.
how effective this kind of situation can be, in terms of quality of the stream and recording? Does any of this make sense?

I need to protect my FMS, so that only me (my Username, or IP if its not possible) can start a live stream. I have been reading the pdf on plugin for developers, and i read that the authorization plugin can do this, but it is C++ and i dont know nothing about that, i can understand a little bit, but i do not know how to make the dll i want. Is there another way to do this, the server requests a user and password when i want to stream.
View 10 Repliesi have made a chat app and i want to let the user add another users that he can find by searching the database of users to his own list, and grouping them ,,, this is can be done but ,,, now in my app when the user connect to the lobby he get all the online connected users in his list i mean when connecting to the online user list sharedobject the user list contains all the connected clients to the lobby and if the number of the connected users is by hundreds or thousands i think
if i create a loop for updating the own user users list statues it would not be good idea,,,
so what is the best way to let the user build his own users list and get the statues of each user in his list from the application online users sharedObject witch connected to the lobby app
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...

I will deliver the following technical information on the server:
-Dedicated server:
Connection bandwidth: 100 Mbps Unlimited transfer limit
RAM: 512MB RAM Intel Atom 1.60 mono

I installed said program but whenever I add users, it says they were added successfully and exist in CMD.However when I check the users.dat file it is empty. When I try Live Encoder it says the user does not exist.
View 10 RepliesI'm pretty new to Flash VOD, exploring using a FMIS as a substitute for an existing vbrick systems' server. One thing that I'll need to do is authenticate users against an LDAP directory. Basically, the implementation will need to embed a Flash media player in a web page, the page also sets the server URI and stream name for the player. The player would need to ask the user for a username/password, and the server would need to make some determination about whether the user is authorized to receive the specified stream.
The advertising on Adobe's site for FMIS talks about LDAP, but on closer inspection it seems as though there's no real LDAP implementation. Instead, it seems as though there's a framework that allows for the development of an LDAP service. Is this the correct understanding? and if so, are there are any third-party plugins available commercially to handle LDAP? And if there aren't any commercial products, are there are any good resources for getting started developing one?

I have more sites, sites have some users, and each user has separate application folder
What I want is put application folder in a defined folder like following

C:FMISsiteBapplicationsuser2

I think for this I need to create virtual hosts.
we're planning to set up a live streaming service, one operson live streaming a video to multiple users. so no more than one channels contemporary in uplaod, and at the beginning it won't be a open broadcast service (maybe later..) we initially don't know how many can be the users. I've red that there's no theoretically limit for the maximum number of users connected with a fms, is this also valid for live streaming, or has it some limitation due to be live? is it necessary to have our fms, or is it possible (and cheaper) use a server provider?
View 1 RepliesWe've just installed Flash Media Server 4 to host video for a new client. We've gotten it to serve up video to the public and ourselves (inside our own network), but the problem is our client cannot view the videos. They keep getting a "can't connect to the network" message.Does anyone know of how we should troubleshoot this? The videos are each about 90 minutes long, and for right now, there are six of them, which is why we wanted to stream instead of embedding them.

View 2 RepliesNot talking video here. Talking interactive apps, like chat. Ours crashes at about 500 connected users. When I report this I'm told "make sure you're not creating too many objects serverside" or "increase the JSRuntimeSize setting in your application.xml file to the max". Have now done both of those things but still get this out of memory error. Let's say I optomized my app and got 100% more connection capacity. That would be 1,000 connected users - still nowhere near enough. Are my dreams of 6,000 or 10,000 connected users enjoying all of the fruits of the FMS interactivity pipe dreams?Is it not meant for sessions of that size?
