I was wondering if I were to create a NetStream object and publish it passing in "record" (allowing the end user to record a video via webcam which is then stored on the FMS), how would I specify the bitrate and frame rates etc of the video being recorded? Is this something I need to configure flash media server to do or can I do this through action script?
View 1 RepliesI don't find such API to indicate whether a stream is live or not.
Anyone knows how to judge this,either by client side or server side actionscript?
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 15 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.
I 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.Too, when I try and open the html with the stream in a browser, nothing appears.

View 1 RepliesI am developing a simple application using flex which records a video with my webcam and stores it to the media server and then i pull it in order to show it.The problem is that the quality of the video played is blurry while it is displayed with the same size as captured. I have played a lot with the values in the functionsbelow where i attach my cam to the netstream objec: cam.setMode(640, 480, 25);cam.setQuality(0,90);and the result is an flv video which i play later on but with not a good quality. The server is on my pc so i dont have transfer delays because of low connection. Whatcan i do to have a better output? i use netstream play method to play the video and i do the following
video = new Video(640,480);
video.attachNetStream(ns);
video.smoothing=true;

View 12 RepliesI have written a browser based stream publisher for my work. It works well for most clients until we get to a few who are streaming live tv shows (which they are producing) where they are getting interlacing issues. We have looked at software based solutions to de-interlace the video, but that puts the video out of sync with the audio and just brings a whole mess of headaches with it. I am fairly sure I can't de-interlace inside my publisher without adding excessive overhead to the computer.
It looks as though our solution is to use an ingestion style software that would handle both de-interlacing and keeping audio sync. I believe Adobe has a piece of software that they offer for that... I can't remember the name. Anyway, my question is that I need to determine the length of time that the stream has been published (while still live) from within a client player. I have read through the livedocs on NetStream and NetConnection and see that netstream.time only returns the length of time that the stream has been playing in my player... not how long the stream has been publishing. I don't have access to change any code on our FMS servers as we are going through Highwinds and they don't allow that.
I'm just trying to figure out this error message that comes up when I am importing a video into flash. It says: 'NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound: Adobe flash tried to play a live or recorded stream that does not exist. Source can't be found'
View 2 RepliesWe have an application that is using FMS to share slides (swf,jpg, etc) with another client. We added a video as an option. We would like to verify as often as possible the bandwidth quality between communications in order to suggest the user to close video if we notice bandwidth is not optimal.
We've been experimenting doing a bandwidth detection every 60 seconds, but I am wondering if there are specific guidelines to do this for live video, like how many times one should verify bandwidth? Is it ok to take one reading or should we take a few readings and then average out?

View 1 RepliesI need to play a .FLV file (a commercial), then switch over to a live RTMP stream. Then, every 30 minutes STOP the live stream (or mute/hide it if thats more efficient/effective) and play the commercial again, then continue with the stream for another 30 minutes and repeat. For some reason I'm clueless on how to do this. I don't know if I'm supposed to use timers or setInterval. For now I'm using the FLVPlayBack component (I'm too lazy to code my own right now).
It would be really cool if the script could sense when the video is done playing rather than me having to set a specific time because they might not all be the same length. I dont want my viewers seeing 15 seconds of nothing if its a 15 second commercial and I set a timer for 30 seconds.
How can I access the camera on a wireless computer and import the live stream into my a SWF file, on Ubuntu Linux?
I know that there is Flash Media Server and Flash Media Live Encoder to create an .flv stream, but the encoder only works on Windows and Mac.
Is it possible to access the camera on a linux computer and convert into a video stream for AS3?
If not, are there other video stream formats that can be read into Actionscript?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to use Flash's StageVideo object through the example ActionScript file in this page(http:url....), the problem is it's just showing up a black screen (no video) for live streams which are not using the H264 codec? and also it is not even throwing up a StageVideoEvent.RENDER_STATE event to say that it cannot play the stream. Actually it can seem to play the stream because I can hear audio but it is just unable to show up any video.
Someone commented on some other sites to check if the "Enable Hardware Acceleration" in the Flash settings is checked, and I can confirm that it is checked, again this is only happening whenever I'm viewing a non-H264 stream.Can the StageVideo be used to view live stream using screenshare codec (SVC2)? I have tried viewing H263 stream and it plays fine, only when viewing live stream using screenshare codec that I'm encountering this problem
I am trying to find a way to embed a live video stream on a webpage accessible via the internet. I have my video server setup so that multicast streaming over my LAN works.

If this is not the right place to post this, just let me know and I'll repost in the proper place.
View 2 RepliesHave a Flex/FMS web meeting app that has multiple custom components - live streaming camera, chat, slide dec.
Each component does its share of communicating through the FMS server. Should all three of those things share one NetConnection object in the application or will the live video stream suffer when users chat or the meeting presenter advances slides and such?

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to stream live video for the first time. I've installed FMIS 3.5 without Apache 2.2. I'm confused on the RTMP/HTTP protocol usage,I can only have port 80 opened on our FMIS 3.5 box.
[Code]...
Server conf:
2 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5410 @ 2.33GHz
16Gb RAM
2 Gbit ethernet channel
OS - Linux CentOS 5.5 x86_64
FMS4 Interactive
Live stream parameters:
320Ń…240 qua_=87 bw_=200000 kf_=5 fps_=18
So, after approximately 600 connections to one stream video becomes choppy (periodically freeze, slow motions). CPU-usage at this time is 100-120% (maximum is 800%, 100% per each core), network usage is 500 Mbit/sec.But second live stream(with few connections) at this server looks fine simultaneously with 600 connections at first stream.Experiments with recommendation in "Configuring performance features" documentation chapter(enabling/disabling aggregate messages and configure the size of stream chunks) do not help.
I did a live stream last week using 282,482,832,1500Kbps streams. What would cause the audio to get out of sync with the live video stream? I'm trying to determine if it was bandwidth related, cpu/memory issue on the FMIS 4.5 server, or an issue with encoding PC exceeding it's limits?
