setup multicast event with recorded videos not with live stream. how to setup multicast address that ask in multicast configuration utility....
View 1 RepliesThere seems to be great documentation on multicasting live streams.I can't find anything about multicasting recorded stream. Is there documentation? Or any other sources of info on multicasting recorded streams?
View 4 RepliesFlash Media Server (finally) supports multicast video. But documentation about this feature is about multicasting live video
View 1 RepliesI'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 7 RepliesI use FMLE 3 streaming and recording (DVR) to FMS 3.5, and the sample DVR scripts on FMS for recording the live stream, but the recorded stream not playable (from the remote FMS with FLVPlayback and from my local Developer FMS with Adobe Video Player too). The recorded file is crashed.
View 3 Replieshow to copy a recorded live stream to a new drive on the server? I can copy the file within the virtual app directory but not to another drive.
The only solution i found was to edit the application.xml:
<StreamManager> <StorageDir>e:Sync</StorageDir> </StreamManager>
But unfortunately i need to rename the file once its recorded, and i'm having a hard time accessing that drive/directory where the file is located.
Is it possible to limit the length of live recorded video stream to N minutes/MegaBytes by SSAS in FMS? If the aggregate size of stream outcomes the limit,always make the recorded video file the last N minutes/MegaBytes of the live show? remove the video file and record from the beginning when arriving N minutes/MegaBytes?
View 1 RepliesI have a question regarding FMS 3.5 and live streaming with failover protection. Currently, we are running a single server with FMS 3.5 for our VOD and live streaming events and its been working great. Recently during our last live video stream the server decided to die and naturally the live stream was lost. To prevent such a future scenario from happening, and given that I am on limited budget what would be a best method of prevention. I saw there is limited documentation on setting up origin to edge, or two origin servers (more likely for us since we can maybe purchase one more server at this time) but I do not have access to make network/router changes etc. I do have full access to configure my Windows 2003 servers however.
View 2 RepliesI 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 just upgraded to FMS 4.5. I'm able to stream live event via HDS but I can't stream live events via HLS. I can use VOD via HLS but not live events. I tried access the HLS url directly on my iphone and even tried embeddeding the <video> tags in a HTML file and get the same results. What I did notice is that in my application folder on the server I only see the HDS files being created. I do not see the .ts files that I beleive are supposed to be created when streaming to HLS devices.
View 7 Repliesi test the fms 4 update 1 rtmfp streams multicast after 10 minutes i get this message RTMFP Multicast stream has exceeded max duration allowed; closing stream. but i do not use IP multicast
[Code]...
Say I got a live event called game in "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_game" and push a MBR stream for awhile and see the ".stream" files being created, everything works good.
However whenever I stop the stream, delete the contents and try to republish another stream to this event name never recreates the '.stream' files or stream directories.
1. Delete the files "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_gameMsadsaasa.str eam","C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrevents\_definst_gameMsadsaasa .stream".
2. Delete all the stream directories - "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrstreams\_definst_game1", "C:FMSHOMEapplicationslivepkgrstreams\_definst_game2".
Is this normal behavior or is there a default waiting peroid before reusing an event name? Should I only publish to a liveevent name once?
I create a local netconnection, and the netgroup on the server side. How can I record the stream that is published to a netgroup?
View 1 RepliesWe have a video broadcasting platform and we use FMS 4.5 to broadcast a multicast stream. My question is : can we do QoS tagging of this multicast stream ?
View 1 RepliesI have followed the code provided in a thread in this forum on recording a multicast:
[URL]
Basically, it gets aan RTMP stream from a client and attached that incoming stream to an outgoing RTMFP stream with multicast enabeled.
Everything works fine, except, after the client disconnects from the server, the multicast netstream on FMS continues its life. The admin panel shows that netstream as a stream with type Live.
I have tried things like:
ns.publish(false);
ns.attach(false);
but the stream keeps staying on the server, how is it possible to get rid of it when the client disconnects?
I'm developping a FMS 4 application that read an external stream, and then, republish it in multicast:
1.- So, first of all I open a NetConnection to the remote application. And I associate it to a new Stream created in the application. Then I have the stream available in my application.
nc = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(REMOTE_APPLICATION);
nc.onStatus = function(info)
[Code].....
But, I don't know who would be the client in the registerStream method. Which reference should I add there? Is it possible in this way?
I made another different script that republish that stream in localhost using NetConnection.publish(localhost/sameapplication). It works properly. But I would like to be able of managing it in the other way.
When a DVR stream finishes publishing, can you use the cached file as a VOD? Where is the DVR file stored?
View 1 Replies 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";
There are some recorded flv files. The guy in the video is showing numbers with his hands. (1.flv, 2.flv, 3.flv etc) And there are live idle videos. In these idle videos the guy doesnt do anything.
I need to be able to click 1 as the operator and viewers should see the guy make "1" in the video. Actually I have accomplished so far. It works. I do this:
If the operator selects a video it adds the video to playlist: stream.play(filename, -2, -1, false);
Also have this event handler to play a random idle video when there are no more action videos lined up:
function onStreamStatus(obj) {
if (obj.code != "NetStream.Play.Stop") return;
switch (obj.code) {
[Code].....
So it is working so far. Problem is:
As time goes by there appears to be a delay between I issue the play command on the stream and I actually see it in the video on client side.
I need a way to set the permissions (ex 0777) for the recorded streams without calling any additionals scripts.
View 2 RepliesI am having troubles finding a way to switch videos during a live stream. For example, broadcasting a show and switching to a commercial and then back to the live feed.

When broadcasting pre-recorded streams on a live applicationFMS always stops streaming at a certain time...
It can be after 10 seconds, it can be after 2 hours, or it can be after any other time, the frame just freezes on the client and the buffer drops to 0.
any attempt to diconnect / reconnect does not resume the streaming, althought the FMS console registers the connected client, no streaming is ensuing. One of the common events we get on the client in such instances when the streaming stops results in get "NetStream.Play.InsufficientBW".[code]...
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
No I have installed fms4.5, but I can't find good docs how to set something like this up. In Learning section I saw a lesson, but this one isn't ready.So I want to publish using flash and the subscribers to the livestream can be iPhones or Browsers.
View 13 RepliesI have a task before me that I have not spent any time researching in the past because I never thought I would have to do it... I need some specific advice from some of you gurus out there.I need to set up a training facility in which we film a teacher in HD and broadcast it live across the internet to 30 locations around town. I also need to have a live chat going with the video in which any of the viewers can ask a question to the teacher and he/she can answer it in the lecture being given.
The 30 locations that the viewers will be at will be a board room setting with an HDTV on the wall , and maybe a wireless keyboard and mouse that they can share to chat with the teacher.I know I can quickly figure out all of the video stuff, like lighting and cameras. I really need advice on all of the technical stuff that it takes for the live broadcast on the internet.
I imagine that I will choose a content delivery network, but which one? I imagine that I will use Flash Media Server, but which version? Do I need a real time transoding device to feed the analog HD video signals to to feed it to the computer? The company has T1, is it fast enough on the uploading to get what we need done?
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(...);
close another live stream B if opening when stream A is closed? Does FMS support this kind of logic?
