Media Server :: Live Multicast On FSM Remains Active After Client Disconnects
Mar 9, 2011I 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?
Media Server :: Flash Multicast Streaming?
Nov 29, 2011I am testing the P2P function of Flash Media Server 4.I have setup two environment for testing, but only one can success to using the P2P.However, i found that there is some problem in network connection.Here is my procedure to create the Peer to Peer Multicast.1. Using Multicast Config Tool ( oolsmulticastconfigurator) to create the "Peer to Peer" type (Generate the manifest.f4m and copy the publisher stream name to flash encoder) --> multicast type: Peer to Peer --> RTMFP URL: rtmfp://true ip/miltocast --> stream name: livestream --> publish password: password --> group name: fms.multicast.example --> ip multicastaddress and port: 224.0.0.254:30000 Using Flash encoder with the public stream name connect to flash media server.3. In client side, we use the example player ( oolsmulticastmulticastplayer)

Flash :: Options For Playing Multicast Video On A Webpage
Feb 14, 2010Assuming a network hierarchy that supports video multicasting, what options are there today to tap into this stream from a web page? I've seen some references to this with Silverlight and project Star Light, which I unfortunately have no experience with. It also feels like a third option behind HTML5 and Flash.

Nov 17, 2011I am deploying Updates via SCUP and SCCM to hundreds of Computers. Fortunately Adobe provides an SCCM Update Catalog for both Adobe Flash ActiveX and Adobe Flash Plugin. But now my Problem: After publishing the Update via SCCM, the client is not supposed to be interfered with the Update Progress (which is working) I figured the Updater works like this: First SCCM checks if a Update needs to be deployed, if this is the case, The Flash Updater begins. First the old Flash Version is beeing uninstalled. But now: if the Client has a Browser Window (IE, or Firefox) open, the Updater is not able to install the new Flash Version and quits with an Error. This leaves the Client PC without any Flash (because its being uninstalled before) How can I prevent Flash being uninstalled due to the Update progress not working while a Browser window is open?

Professional :: Unable To Take A Laptop To A Client And Sit With Them To Design?
Feb 4, 2011I've recently picked up the opportunity to develop a simple little application for a company that makes cupcake wedding cakes. They want to be able to take a laptop to a client and sit with them to design the look of the cakes - colour, topping, etc. End result is a saved written preference, along with an image of their design. I've assumed Flash is the best bet for something like this. Although I've dabbled in Flash and have experience in coding, I've yet to pick it up fully. The version I have is Flash MX. I've assumed I could create a movieclip representing a single cake, that is then replicated over the stack of cakes? A simple set of options on a side panel would let the user pick colour, amount, etc. Firstly, will Flash (MX) let me save out a 'screengrab' of the movie as something that could then be saved to, say, a JPG? And I assume that writing the variable choices to something like a text file would be no problem..

View 3 RepliesProfessional :: Publishing .fla Project Including Client - Server Socket Connection
Nov 20, 2010I have designed with Adobe Flash Professional CS5 a .fla project that integrates a client - server connection. After publishing it, I have the following issue:- when running the generated .exe file for Windows, then the connection to the server works perfectly- but when I am running the published .html file, then nothing is sent to the server.
I have tried to change the Publish Settings. When setting the Local Playback Security in Flash menu to "Access network only" instead of "Access local files only" then the last packet that was send using the .exe file is resent once and that's all (the html client does not receive the response from the server and the next connection attemps generate data transfer). I guess I have to change some security settings somewhere but I didn't find which.

Media Server :: FMIS 4 - How To Get IP Multicast To Work
Nov 9, 2010I was wondering if any one could clarify something with IP multicast. From what I understand to get IP multicast to work the server needs to publish to the router box. So how can this be achieved if the FMS server is not in the same network as the router box? Would it require a second FMS server to be placed in the same network as the router box that connects to the main FMS server?

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: Join Multicast Group On AIR DatagramSocket?
Jun 4, 2011I'm currently testing Flex/AIR for a new software that we have to design to display data received from the network and I'm very excited about all possibilities Flash offers in terms of UI and how easy it is to quickly develop a nice-looking, portable application, compared to other technologies (like Java, though richer in terms of API but harder to write code reusable for desktop, Internet and mobile apps, and not so good looking ).
The application itself gets data from a multicast group and formats it on the screen (images, graphs, ...).
So I'm really willing to use Flash to build this app and after a few benchmarking/prototyping I'm using a DatagramSocket (AIR-only, that's fine) to read UDP datagrams and it's working fine except for two tiny things on which I couldn't find any answer: I can't have the socket join a multicast groupI can't set the send/receive buffer size for the socket I have a lot of code in C and Java for that and both are just a single call to "setsockopt" function: In C: setsockopt(sock, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, &group, sizeof(struct ip_mreq)) - where "group" describe the multicast group to joinsetsockopt(sock, SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVBUF, &sz, sizeof(sz)) - where "sz" is the number of byte to use for the receive bufferIn Java it's even simpler, using a MulticastSocket: sock.joinGroup(group)sock.setReceiveBufferSize(sz) I tried to use Alchemy to write simple functions to create an UDP socket and have it join a multicast group but alas, the "socket" call returns -1, as it seems that sockets cannot be created in Alchemy environment (though compilation works without problem...).
I find it hard to believe that I'm the only one needing these two tiny "setsockopt" calls... I found on Adobe forums people trying to set the TCP_NODELAY option on a socket (also using setsockopt in the end) but without success...
By the way, the data come from an electronic board and is somehow coded in VHDL so I can't use RTMFP on that, though it seems to implement the functionnalities I need (or at least the multicast group part, the receive buffer size would be a bonus).
Well, I'm rather disapointed by this as Flash fills remarkably 99.9% of the application needs but this tiny 0.1% makes it impossible for it to get the data, thus making it useless...
And we don't want that I turn to Silverlight, do we?

View 1 RepliesMedia Server :: P2P Multicast And Upstream Bandwidth
Jan 27, 2012I'm in the process of developing a realtime video chat application where multiple users can send video streams simultanuously. The number of users receiving the streams can be very big, e.g. 10 broadcasters and 500 receivers, each receiver should get all streams.
I use RTMFP connections to an FMS and streams are published in P2P multicast groups by passing the groupspec to the NetStream constructor. Currently I'm having problems with audio/video synchronization and video stream 'jumps' (not continuous). From what I read on other threads, this is related to the fact that there is not enough upstream bandwidth for sending the streams. So my questions are:
How to calculate the required upstream bandwidth on every peer for the given example of 10 broadcasters and 500 receivers (is it 10*bandwidth of one stream)?What settings (on NetStream, Camera, Microphone etc.) should be used for best results and how to adapt them based on the number of broadcasters?

View 1 RepliesMedia Server :: Recording Multicast RTMFP Streams?
Dec 19, 2010I know this question comes up from time to time, but it's completely unaddressed in the documentation and I'd like there to exist a more authoritative treatment of the subject.Like many other developers, we're trying to record multicast RTMFP streams. We see three options:
Broadcasting clients open two outgoing NetStreams: one for the multicast group through RTMFP, and another directly to FMS through RTMP for recording. One downside to this solution is that now the user has two outgoing streams, so available outbound bandwidth for any broadcasting client could easily become a constraint on video quality.One can stream to FMS 4 using RTMP and have FMS-side code that records and broadcasts the stream to the multicast group using RTMFP (recommended by JayCharles at http:url...). I haven't tried this out yet but my guess it that it will have worse video quality than a pure RTMFP solution. Is my concern justified?Super-hacky solution: one could have flash player running in some kind of virtual environment on a server. This flash player could subscribe to the multicast stream and record the video at a systems level. Has anyone tried a hack as daring as this? What solution is recommended by Adobe?It's incredible to me that FMS 4 can't act as an RTMFP consumer, thereby both acting as a multicast node and also recording the video. Can anyone at Adobe comment on this omission in functionality?

Media Server :: Pulling A Stream From External FMS And Publishing In Multicast
Mar 21, 2011I'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.
Actionscript 3.0 :: Client To Client Streaming?
Mar 17, 2010I am trying to build a client-to-client streaming program - client 1 has a webcam and client 2 will connect to client 1 and be able to view the webcam. Is this possible using 2 swf clients? Can someone point me in the right direction as to what commands would be used to connect the two clients. I have tried: binary sockets Connect() where each clients points to the other and they both time-out NetConnection to try to point each client to one another to establish a connection, but no luck with that either; this seems more oriented towards streaming content to a flash media server rather than to another flash client.
View 1 RepliesActionscript 3 :: Client + Grails Server - Processing Audio At The Client And Sending It Back To The Server
Mar 8, 2012We're writing a flash application that can download a MP3 file, convert it to a Sound object, get the raw data and make some processing (like adding sounds, change octaves). After the processing, we want to send the data back to the server in chunks, so the server will be able to glue the data together and recover the new generated file. The problem is: if we send to the server "wav" pieces of sound, we are able to glue them together without any problem in the generated file. However, if we convert each wav piece to a mp3 file (so we can send a smaller file to the server) and join the mp3 files at the server, the result is a sound with some problems at the merge point.
This is how we load the mp3 file from the server:
sourceSnd.load(new URLRequest("sample url to mp3"));
sourceSnd.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, carregou);
This is how we convert each piece of mp3 to bytearray and wav:
