I like to protect, with a password and user name, the incoming stream to the FMS (application Live Packager). How can I instal a password (I don't mean SSL), to prevent that unauthorized persons can stream their own content over my server. This means, the Flash Media Encoder should ask for a password and username.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to put in place a Flex application that allows a user to send a video stream and let the others to display it.
I created a sender page (below).

I don't know why in the receiver page I can't display the incoming stream? I put a simple alert to show the returned connection code, it shows "Success".
Can anybody tell me how to stop and restart the incoming stream thru server action script?

Has there been any further discussion regarding restricting who can stream to FMSS (not FMIS or the development version).
I found this article, but I don't know if this was ever fully resolved:

I don't want just anyone to connect to my server to stream live. I want to restrict by IP address, authentication, or any other means.
Situation: live hls multi-bitrate, livepkgr, m3u8 served on "my" website
(iOS user gets on "my" page, clicks on the m3u8 link and views the live content - no problem there...)
What is stopping other to use my playlist on their website and offer the same service with "my" infrastructure?
If i use protected hls - i still will be giving keys to all the viewers - both those who came through my website and also all others.
I would like to protect my flash files. I would like to block any decompilers,protect actionscript and also protect graphics. Some time ago,I tried to decompile a swf and when I placed it inside a decompiler , it showed me a login form and no graphics.I believe that is the ultimate protection method.Do you have any idea what software can do that ?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to figure out whether or not it's possible to have two incoming streams to the same FMS server. Every time I try to search this information, I find stuff on having multiple outgoing streams, but nothing on multiple incoming streams.
The two streams will have the same content, but will use different video / audio codecs, and be set to different resolutions / bitrates.
I don't want to spend the money on another server, so it'd be great to know if FMS can do this..
I am attempting to retrieve data from a PHP file within my Actionscript file.I have a large amount of incoming dynamic variables so it is necessary for me to retrieve them all, however, I don't want to get every variable individually as that would take a very long time to code and does not work well. Is there any way to get all variables at once?[code]...

Its all working fine. I can put Pixel Effects on My Video Panel and it works fine when I broadcast my video using my web cam.
I want to implement same effect on the Incoming NetStream. But when I try to implement same effects on incoming NetStream it throws Security Error that Connection to rtmp://localhost/videochat halted - not permitted from file:///D|/xampp/xampp/htdocs/MIKE/Test/clientAS2/videochat.swf
I wonder why I can not capture pixels information using BitmapData for incoming NetStream ??

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to make some kind of relay, to rebroadcast received stream to another host?
For example, if i have code like this

I use AS3 in Flash to read XML from an external document. I'm wondering how to tell AS3 to read and treat some of the incoming XML values as variable names. For example, in the beginning of my Actionscript, I have defined the variable:
var playerAge:Number;
and some of the incoming XML nodes look like:
<whichVariable> playerAge </whichVariable>
<whichValue> 10 </whichValue>
Now, upon reading these two nodes, I want to make a function that adds the value of the second node to the variable with the name contained in the first node. However, I can only get AS3 to read the value of the first node as a a string ("playerAge"). How do I get it to make the 'connection' between the XML node and the variable with the same name?
I need my flash to pull data from php dynamically. I got a php file that listens mysql for new datas to be pulled in while condition.. when data pulled I have the following ideas:
Use socket server within the same php file and send the data thru socket..

Using Ajax and passing received-variables thru flashvars?Examples : [URL]

So the data return from the query is correct, and the difficulty lies in accessing the "estimatedResultCount" near the end of the JSON data.
we have this game where you control an avatar in the middle of the stage that defends itself from incoming projectiles. If it hits them with its arms or legs you get a +1, but if they hit the head or torso you get a -1. But cant figure out how to spawn them randomly along a given path. See picture below. Want them to come in from the sides but have the same "destination-area" - which would be the head & torso.

View 1 RepliesIs there any way to get Flex Builder to connect to an existing browser session running Flash Player Debugger? I can connect to FDB like this, but with Builder I need to click Debug and rush to close the newly opened browser window before it loads the Flash file and then go back to the session I want to connect and right click it to start the debugger.
Unfortunately this is not very reliable as I can't always beat the window opening, requiring several attempts before being able to connect to the session I am interested in. If I could just tell Builder 'Start debugging' and then have it wait for the connection, I could now calmly go over to the browser, right click, hit debug, provide the IP and voila. This would allow me to inspect variables on a hard to replicate bug on a session running on a tester's computer.
close another live stream B if opening when stream A is closed? Does FMS support this kind of logic?
View 8 RepliesOnly just getting started on this whole domain of learning, so go easy!If I set up a P2P video/audio chat (similar to the sample VideoPhone thing on the Cirrus site), can I get the stream from both parties to send to a server at the same time so that I can record it? If so, would I have to use a FMS to stream it to and perform the recording (and if so which version could I get away with)? Are there any (preferably free, or just tutorialised) solutions for the recording side of things?
Currently it seems like the only option for doing the P2P thing is to use Stratus/Cirrus unless I use FMS4 Enterprise.
how effective this kind of situation can be, in terms of quality of the stream and recording? Does any of this make sense?
I've had FMS running on my local machine for a while and have had a little experience writing FMS apps, but I've just tried recording audio for the first time using the standard vod application and I keep getting a "Write access denied for stream" error. My AS3 code is copied and pasted for various examples and am confident that it works.
I'm running Windows XP service pack 3 & FMIS 3.5.
I've had a look at the vod/media directory and under windows->properties the read-only attribute is ticked. Every time I un-tick this it reverts back to being ticked. I've googled this and MS say that most programs ignore the read-only attribute and that it only really applied to files. I've also tried the MS fix for setting the read-only attribute via cmd and still no joy (doesn't fix read-only attribute or FMS recording the audio after setting via cmd).
I've also tried our dev server install of FMS (running under linux) and am getting the same results.
Here's my AS3 code...
private function initApp(event:Event):void
{
removeEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,initApp);

In my browser (Safari or Firefox) I go to my html site and the stream starts after 6-8 sec. But anytime with the lowest bitrate 548 kbps and nothing look like the stream is switching to another bitrate. I tried it with the smil playlist and the result is the same. Only the lowest bitrate is plublished.

View 4 RepliesI'm having a problem with recording a live webcam stream. The last few seconds of the stream is getting cut off.
The recording is stopped with the following piece of code:
vid.attachCamera(null);
vid.clear();
ns.attachCamera(null);
ns.attachAudio(null);
ns.pause();
What could be causing this? Is the stream cut off too soon? Is the client unable to send buffered data to the server?
I am having trouble getting audio stream meta data from an Akamai FMS stream. Everything is undefined and I'm not sure why. I am hoping maybe someone will notice something that I am overlooking. The stream is connecting and playing without a problem I just can't seem to figure out why all the meta data is undefined.
