Media Server :: Which Directory Should Contain The Videos - Applications/vod Or Webroot/vod
Dec 7, 2011
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?

I have installed FMS and we are evalauating it as a streaming server.If I understand the documentation correctly, all the media files for streaming need to be stored in this directory:
/..../applications/vod/media
However, if I want the file to be available (downloadable) over http, it needs to be located under webroot.
..../webroot/
why can't I just create a symbolic link in .../webroot/media to point at .../ applications/ vod/media.In general, we'd like to make every file streamable and downloadable.My thinking is, the sym link allow us to not have to upload every file to two places.

I am running Media Server 3.5.2. The server is still non production. I copy video files to webroot/vod/video.flv. From the client workstation I attempt to access [URL] and get nothing. It was my understanding video's copied here could be viewed as such.

Another question re setting up FMS to do multiple vid conferences:I have 3 or 4 video feeds being generated from different locations, and those 3 or 4 video feeds are going to be consumed by others. Can I do that through the same NetConnection/FMS application? Or do I need to create multiple FMS applications (i.e. one for each feed)? I currently have one feed on a NetConnection, but I'm looking to expand it.

I am trying to use the following in my server side script......I've been using these for years but they don't seem to work in FMS 4.5 do I have to upgrade my scripts to continue using them or are these still available? I can't google anything on them so please shed some light on this. I'm going to continue digging into FMS 4.5 in attempt to fix this without a SSAS rewrite.

I've got Flash Media Server 3.5 up and running on a development server and now want to start customizing the install.
The first thing I want to do is to move the applications folder to a remote server/NAS. This is a failsafe so that if for some reason the Flash Media Server goes kaput all the flv files aren't wiped as well.
Can I configure Flash Media Server so that the applications folder points to a remote network drive (via UNC paths) without causing any permissions problems? How do I do this?

I just came accross edge origin configuration. I was wondering if this would be good if I use Edge-Origin configuration on live applications, like live Video Chat or sharing a drawing board. I understand that they will be useful in case of failures of edges. But unlike 'videos on demand' applications like streaming, edges will help since the edges will cache them. So for a live application, apart from failover any other advantages of having Edge-Origin setup?

I have FLV files streaming fine from the media folder in the applications folder.I want to split up the videos into folders to make them more manageable.If I create another folder in the applications folder at the same level as the media folder and put a video in there the video does not play.

My company has recently asked me to install the Adobe Streaming Server 4.0.I was wondering if it is possible to have the server software reside on the C: drive, while having my VOD files on seperate D: drive.The staff here wants to separate the software (server in this instance) from the individual flash video files, so they have set up two drives.

My employer has a Flash Media Server that I wrote a little streaming video app for a couple years ago.Well, the videos have stopped working and I've been asked to troubleshoot. I fired up the fms_adminConsole.swf and connected to my server. Now, it's been a long time since I've messed with the server, but if I remember right, there was a big list of apps on the list on the left hand side of the "View Applications" view of the console. When I log in, there are no applications listed. If I hit the "New Instance" button under the empty list, I'm presented with a list of all the apps I think I should be seeing in the Applications list. If I select any of these, a new application instance appears in the applications list, and I'm prompted to give it a name, the default being "_definst_". If I hit enter to create this instance, it remains on the list and instance data appears on the right panel until the console refreshes, and then all that vanishes and I'm back to an empty applications list again.
Going to "Manage Servers", I do see a list of applications under the applications tab that I expect to see. The app that streams the video that's having problems is there on the list.
Is this typical behavior for the Flash Media Server Console? Shouldn't I have a list of apps in the "View Applications" section of the console? I've created about a dozen to date, and they're all listed under Manage Servers > Applications, but not under "View Applications". Can anyone point out if I'm doing something wrong here or missing something?Or can someone confirm that I SHOULD be seeing something under "View Applications" and that there is indeed something weird going on with the server.

I can stream files in the root of a NAS drive (/nas_dir), but not in any of the sub folders (/nas_dir/sub/). FMS has read/write permission to all the files on the NAS but all i get is "stream not found" when I access anything in the sub folders (streams play fine from the root of the NAS) FMS is running on rh5.4

I'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 am running Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5.1 r516 on a CentOS system. I also have WHM/cPanel installed on this system. My scenario is this. We have a large number of MP4 media files that are currently located in a web root directory created by cPanel: /home/mediafa/public_html/fullservices. These all work without a problem when doing progressive downloads. However, we also want to make them streamable with FMS as well. From the documentation, I should be able to create an entry in the /<fms install dir>/applications/vod/Application.xml file to look up files in that folder.
Here is my VirtualDirectory block:
<StreamManager><VirtualDirectory>
<!-- Specifies application specific virtual directory mapping for recorded streams.-->
<Streams>/;/home/mediafa/public_html/fullservices</Streams>
<Streams>/;${VOD_COMMON_DIR}</Streams>
<Streams>/;${VOD_DIR}</Streams>
</VirtualDirectory></StreamManager>
However, when I try to connect to a file that is in that directory, I get a 404 error in the access.00.log file. I've tried to change the owner/group on the fullservices folder as well as the owner/group of the target file to the fms user/group, but I still cannot connect to it. The connection address is rtmp://<ipAddress>/vod/mp4:1005-03m_256k.mp4.

I have successfully been able to write some client-side ActionScript that allows me to record my webcam and mic data to my FMS server. The .flv files get saved to a directory under the applications directory. However, I need to process those flv files for a web application and would like those .flv files to be saved to the web app's directory (outside of the FMS application directory). I have tried changing the <Streams> tag in the Application.xml file that I placed in the FMS application directory, but that simply did not work.My goal is simple: to save the recorded stream data outside of the FMS application's directory. I have been going crazy trying to do this, but would like to know any pointers that any of you experts have. Can this be done? If not, how can I execute a server side PHP script after the stream is done recording. I know about using the exec() function in PHP, but am unsure as to how to execute that script via client-side actionscript.Here is the path to my FMS server (Linux OS) installation and the application directory. The application name is "ngale"./opt/adobe/fms/applications/ngaleHere is the path that my client-side ActionScript is placing the .flv files of the recorded streams/opt/adobe/fms/applications/ngale/streams/recordings/Here is the path to my web application/home/user/public_html/dev.ngale.net/public/Here is the path that I would like for the .flv recording files to be saved to/home/user/public_html/dev.ngale.net/public/audio/.flv

I 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.
<object width='640' height='377' id='videoPlayer' name='videoPlayer' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' classid='clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000' ><param name='movie' value='swfs/videoPlayer.swf' /> <param name='quality' value='high' /> <param name='bgcolor' value='#000000' /> <param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /> <param name='flashvars' value= '&videoWidth=0&videoHeight=0&dsControl=manual&dsSensitivity=100&serve rURL=dynamicStream.smil&DS_Status=true&streamType=vod&autoStart=true&v
[code]....
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.
