View 1 RepliesWhy can't (or better yet) you kill client stream from server side - I seen some code that FME may call on server side like s= stream.get(streamOBJ.name); s.play(false); delete s; application.gc(); // over kill but still did not work
View 2 RepliesI'm looking for a solution where clients watch a live stream video and can record part of this stream while watching and save this recording to disk. I can think of several solutions but not sure if any of them is possible:
- The selected part is recorded locally and saved through FileRefence.
- The selected part is recorded with FMS though a second NetStream and saved with a unique ID. The user can retrieve the recorded video by download.
- Start-time and end-time of the recording are send to the server where some script extracts the requested video from the live stream recording file and return it as a download.
The auth_addin works as expected when using the Flash Media Live encoder requiring a username and password before publishing a stream.However, tools like Wirecast and even the sample broadcasting SWF that comes in the FMS Introduction page can publish a stream without providing any credentials!
View 1 RepliesI got serious issue while using adobe flash media server (I have media server streaming license). It doesn't allow flash clients to make stream's screenshot (with BitmapData.draw) because this is restricted from server side by default. I found that this trouble can be resolved my updating main.asc file but it seems like replacing main.far with mine main.asc causing error. Could you please help me with resolving this issue because it's extremely important to allow this screens making for user.I used CentOS 5.3 and FMS 4.0.1 r2009 (instaled in /opt/adobe/fms include Apache 2.2). All video is stored in a directory /opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/media and I put the main.asc file in the directory /opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/ from the directory /opt/adobe/fms/samples/applications/vod.
View 5 RepliesI'm testing Live streaming with FMSS. The stream is pushed to FMSS buy Adobe FMLE software. Streaming works fine until I reach 1300-1400 simultaneous connections.No matter what the encoding ratebit is (150kbps or 2000kbps) the stream is no longer play from time to time (5-8 seconds).
The CPU (2xIntel Quad) is loaded less than 20% and memory used is about 2 GB (there is plenty of memory installed 32G). The OS is RedHat 5.3 64bit platform. Network uplink maximum rate is 4Gbps.I disabled the Queue but the problem still persist.
Can I stream/publish all methods at the same time?I really want most users to play my live streams via RTMP, however, fail over to HLS for Apple iOS.
View 6 RepliesI'm pretty new to flash media server (and adobe technologies in general). I have an Air app that publishes a camera stream to the server, that can be played live by the same app on another computer/device. I would like to record to disk all audio/video passing through the server (on the server side) while streaming it at the same time. How can I accomplish this?
View 9 RepliesAs a subscriber of live stream how do I get absolute stream time since it is published? Consider the case, a publisher has published a live stream at 0 seconds. It has been 100 seconds past since the live stream is published. A new subscriber comes to fms and subscribers a live stream. It starts playing that live stream but NetStream.time property will start from 0 instead of 100. Is there any way or configuration (in fms) which allows subscriber to get absolute stream time?
View 1 RepliesI see FMS has the ability to record live streams. I've done it and it works nicely.
Ideally I'd like people to watch my event live AND archive it while they watch.
So I have FMLE and FMS. to record and stream video at the same time.
On server side I have "main"
application.onPublish = function(client, potok){
potok.onStatus = function(info){
for(var i in info){
trace(i + "=" + info[i]);

How can you change this to where when the page is loaded it does not say (loading) and it will say (No live video streams) you can view archived videos. Is this on the server FMS Interactive in the configuration or can it be done from the code inserted above?
I'm having a reliability problem with publishing live, h.264 streams from FFMPEG (using the rtmp publish ability now built into FFMPEG, where I can set an rtmp address as the output).After a random period of time (usually between an hour and several hours), the default "live" application in FMS 4 (or 3.5) eventually drops the connection from the FFMPEG encoder. This is what appears in the log for the application:"Dropping application (live/_definst_) message. Clients not allowed to broadcast message."After googling the error, I discovered that people have been reporting this error for several years, but there has not been a single response from any FMS experts or Adobe about what causes the error.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to use SharedObjects to manage some state between my server and clients, and am having a lot of trouble understanding the documentation and can't find any examples that work. Here is what I'm trying to do:
1. Create a shared object on my server in an application instance running on my FMS.
2. Allow clients to receive updates to the state of this shared objects.
1. Create a shared object on my server instance.
2. Set up the proper calbacks so that a client can receive updates to this object.
I suspect that the number of lines involved to accomplis this is < 10, but the examples I've found in the documentation produce compilation errors.
We are running RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.5. I am told by the Adobe support department that only version 5.2 is supported. However, I have let them know this is basically impossible to do. You can't download 5.2 anymore and if you keep your system patched and updated you have to follow the 5.x branch.
We purchased brand new HP hardware for this server. It is a HP DL380-G6 Dual-Quad-Core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5540 @ 2.53GHz with 8GB of RAM. The fix at the moment is to restart the FMS system and everything clears itself up for some random amount of time. This this problems happens again.

We have Streaming Server installed to stream online-seminars to the clients. We want to manually disconnect some clients during the translation while leaving others online. What is the way to do it? Clients connect to server by opening a web-page on the other web-server with embedded flash player which has the source streamer uri

View 1 RepliesThis is showing up in my logs, and i have no idea what is causing it and can't find any more Dropping application (stream_app/_definst_) message. Clients not allowed to broadcast message. It doesn't happen very often, about once every 1 to 2 days.
View 1 RepliesWe have a setup where we have one application that multiple clients use.For each client we setup a seperate vHost on the server so that each client has a FMSCore and FMSEdge process running for their application.We currently monitor the processes to see if there are any problems with them on our production servers, but we would like to know if theres a way where we can link each process to a particular client so that if one goes down we are able to record the effect and notify that client.
View 1 RepliesI have one application, is like a room of students. So whenever one client (flex client) is connected is like a new student in the room. I have been researching and I found that every new client is stored in application.clientsIf I have 3 students connected, lets say student1, student2, student3, and student4 if I made a trace :
for (var i = 0; i<application.clients.length; i++){
trace("student "+i+": "+application.clients[i].name);

Im need to send some data between 2 Flash clients. I have an issue whereby there is a probability that there could be firewall issues with communicating over port 1935 or 443 know you can use RTMPT to tunnel video over port 80 but im not sure about sending data objects.

We have a FMS 3.5.3 running on a production server, a 2x quad-core Xeon E5345 CPU based hardware with Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit OS.
The FMS service streams live streams to hundreds of simultaneous Adobe Flash Player 10 clients through RTMP at port 1935.ally with a higher number of simultaneous clients connected (around 1, one can see a rising number of clients of the loaded (single) application (never diminishing) through the Administration Console. It appears that the clients "linger" - i.e. the number only counts up, never down, from then on.
As if this was not sign of problems enough in itself, the bandwidth graph drops to near zero - i.e. it appears that streaming stops working too. Restarting application helps. The logs do not show anything UNTIL AFTER application is attempted unloaded via console. There are messages of various importance in the event log, among these the weird warning "Asynchronous I/O operation failed (Failed to attach to completion port: The parameter is incorrect. 87)." There is more too, which I can provide on demand.
The application is pretty rudimentary. Of the entire API, we only use Application, Client and SharedObject classes. There is a single persistent shared object, and that's it.
We are using a clean install. Only Microsoft supplied and FMS processes are running. Windows Firewall is on though, and has rules for letting in connections on ports 1935 and 1111. We need a stable server, and I have to restart it manually every day, sometimes twice in an hour, which frustrates me.
I am running a website similar to Ustream and Justin and i am using Linux dedicated server, that have FMS 3.5 Installed. On My site registered broadcasters can stream their live video.
I want to know how can i limit the broadcasters so that they cannot broadcast a live video more then 512bitrate in their encoder.
currently any broadcaster can broadcast a live channel at any bitrate he wants and that is consuming too much of my server's bandwidth.
I have Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (not Interactive) running on RHEL5.5 x86_64 Linux.All is working well, however how do I prevent unauthorized access to connecting to the live stream and streaming content?How can I setup the server to require a user and password to stream live media to the server?I am new to this product and I have been reading some documentation but I have not found a clear cut answer on how to force a username and password to connect to the server to stream live content only.I am using the Adobe FMS Apache install, what files need changing?[code]I want to lock down a person from connecting to the server on the public internet and starting a live stream?Can this be done with a user name and password?
View 13 RepliesI have a big issue with FMS 3.0 and specially with netconnections. Sometimes, when one client closes its netconnection, all the other clients of the FMS are also disconnected automatically. I am trying to find an explanation but nothing... It seems to be a bug as, most of the time everything works very well, but sometimes (not often) this strange behaviour happens. I don't know what to do and it's really annoying as it affects the reliability of my application.
