Flash :: Flex: ComputeSpectrum With Streaming Media?
Jan 18, 2010
I have a Flex3 app I wrote and I'm streaming audio over RTMP from a Red5 server. I'd love to be able to use SoundMixer.computeSpectrum(), but the spectrum data is all zeros. In one location, Adobe writes that SoundMixer.computeSpectrum() does not work with RTMP data:
"For media loaded from RTMP sources, you cannot use the BitmapData.draw() and SoundMixer.computeSpectrum() methods to extract run-time graphics and sound data." [URL] Clear enough. Except, there's the actual documentation for computeSpectrum(): "In addition, this method cannot be used to extract data from RTMP streams, even when it is called by content that reside in the same domain as the RTMP server. [...] This method is supported over RTMP in Flash Player 9.0.115.0 and later and in Adobe AIR."
We are streaming a one hour F4V from streaming media server 3.5.2 and for some reason it is seeing our one hour video as being 10 hours long. We have tons of other videos and never ran into this problem in any of the other files. This is the only file that exceeds one hour. This occurs in the default player from the streaming server.
I have been working on a Flex application that sends a feed from my webcam to the Flash Media server. The application connects to the server fine but for some reason the camera is not sending anything to the Media Server. I am pretty sure that the answer to my question is really simple but I need another set of eyes to llok at my code and tell me what I am doing wrong.
What would be some top reasons an FLV will not stream with Flash Media Streaming Serve 3.5? I ran the FLVcheck.exe on the FLV and it passed; however, the FLV will not stream. If I could just get some good reasons that would cause an FLV from streaming I think that will give me a good starting point for troubleshooting.
I have a virtual directory (Storage Area Network) in 'C' drive as well as in "webroot" folder in Flash Streaming Server. What do I need to do to make RTMP videos work from SAN directory on Flash Streaming Server. It works fine for http. RTMP from vod -> application folder works fine. I have done a lot of research and found out that we can use virtual directories for streaming videos. I am unable to find steps on how to use it..
I have a video that needs to be delivered through streaming, but all viewers need to be synchronized at the same time regardless of when they started the video. If the video starts streaming at 7:00 and someone visits the page at 7:05, they should see the footage at 7:05 and onwards
Can Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 run on AMD Athlon Dual Sock Quad Core?I just requested a Dell server to be added to our farm to run as a Media Server and to my surprise, while reading the requirements for FMS it states the following: 3.2GHz Intel® Pentium® 4 processor (dual Intel Xeon® or faster recommended)
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?
I'm running Flash Media Streaming Server and have only been serving VOD up until now. I had my network administrator open up port 1935 to the outside world during the setup process and now I can't remember if that was actually required for streaming VOD to clients. Most documentation I've read says that this port should be open, but I seem to recall reading something at one point that suggested it wasn't necessary.
I've just started messing around with publishing live streams using Flash Media Live Encoder to the Flash Media Streaming Server. I have that working without issue but was surprised to find that no authentication is required before a client running the live encoder can publish a stream to the Flash Media Streaming Server. An authentication module is available however it only works with Flash Media Interactive Server and Flash Media Development Server.
If I leave port 1935 open to the outside world, there would be nothing to stop anybody anywhere from streaming video via my server. Anyone else running a default install of Flash Media Streaming Server and with port 1935 open to the outside should see that this is true of their setup as well. I'm wondering if I can safely close port 1935 without limiting the functionality of the server or if there's some way I can require authentication prior to publishing a live stream even though I'm not on the four-and-a-half-times-more-expensive edition of the product.
I instal on a machine the Adobe Flash Server 3.5.I have the Flash media administration console but i do not know how i can configure the machine to be a flash media streaming server.I have a tv card on my machine and i want use de flash media encoder to stream to a web page the tv signal on my tv card.I think i need to send the signal encoded use the flash media encoder to a flash media streaming server correct?
I would like to ask if Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server (not Interactive) supports the following Stream.play (server-side streaming), but not necessarily server-side playlists which I know is a FMIS featureunsigned server-side asctionscripts (main.asc) The difference is in the price of course, one is $1000, the other is $5000, so if the two above are supported, I will buy FMSS
Flash media server 3.5 to stream live video to a webpage with flex GUI embedded in it.For this I have used Adobe flash media server start screen .I could able to stream video correctly.I want to know how long it could be do like this.ie suppose I have to stream like this for 3 or 6 months
I have a FMS 4.5 with (License) and is set up and running fine, now I want to stream Live to the IOS Devices but no luck. I have a web page for test purpose with the video src tags to: URL... and in the server I have a livestream.m3u8 pointing to the same URL..., Now the Encoder have the AAC plugin and all the presets like it shut but when I go to see it in my IPad 2 this is how it looks.
We are running Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5.2 Streaming Edition. It is running on a dedicated physical server with 4 cores and 4 gigs of RAM.
I tested the FMS thoroughly before moving to production. I tested by throttling my bandwidth to simulate different connections. Streaming worked great, but almost all of the testing was INTERNAL, not external. We recently started publishing some videos external. We are getting complaints all over the place that the video is choppy.
During our troubleshooting, we started using one of the native videos from the FMS install. The video is only 5 MB. We have tested from several different connections... Fiber, Cable, DSL.... The test video from our Flash Media Server is choppy... It buffers quickly all the way through playback, it is horrible. We published the same video on a public FMS and it works flawlessly from all of our test connections. Our expert developer has published a CF page with both videos, one from our FMS and one from the public.
I 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)
First Environment (A) - not work 1. Flash Media Server (Data center) Data center reported that "All the port have opened (TCP/UDP)
I know that is possible to make a p2p webcam stream with Cirrus/Stratus or with Adobe liveCycle, but the first is not for commercial use and the second use an adobe's server. Is possible to set up a my own server with Flash media server 4 and then create a application to do what i want? I would to create a webcam stream 1->n using p2p. I cant find any example or any documentation about that and how work the rtmpf protocol of fms4. If i was not clear make me any question.
I download the Flash streaming server and install it its work fine.I want know about the following question: how to stream the video using playlist? What is the format of the playlist? can i create a playlist from visual studio.Net and pass the value to the player?
I am a professional video editor specializing in corporate video and occassionally TV commercials. We often post "review" videos in Flash format to our website for our clients to check progress, etc. These videos are usually around 3 minutes in length and occasionally reach 20 minutes Trt. We use Adobe Production Premium CS4 which includes Flash CS4. I usually export the videos at the included preset, "Web Large Widescreen". The playback is almost instantaneous on most DSL and T1 connections. I use the "Full Screen" option button and when the videos are viewed full screen, they look amazing.
Here is the issue: I have recently created a video for a client that contains text and is approx. 50 minutes in length. The video format is 4x3 and the client wants the transcoded Flash video to display at a 640x480 square pixel dimension. The video plays fine over most DSL connections. It chokes on T1. Question: Can streaming Flash video provide better quality and playability for longer duration Web videos? Could any of you direct me to a chart that compares streaming Flash with the "simulated" streaming typically exported from Premiere CS4's Media Encoder?
we are using flash interactive server 3.5 and have just noticed that when flash player upgrades to 10r32 the streaming fails? Is this a known issue and does anyone know if it is specifically a rtmp prob?
i have to implement flash streaming for the relaunch of our video-on-demand system but either because i haven't worked with flash-related systems before or because i'm too stupid i cannot get the system to work as it has to.
We are deploying a media management system within a local network. FMS will be used to serve the media within the local network. Since we will only have max 100 users and we have a powerful dual 4 core xeon and the plan was to install IIS and FMS on the same machine. But now I read that there will be a conflict because the embedded Apache server that FMS installs will fight for port 80 with IIS.
So one possible solution: I've been reading in the Adobe docs that RTMP is far more efficient than tunneling through HTTP, so if we make sure all client machines allow RTMP (firewall exception) can we then change the configured Apache port and assume that Apache will never ever be used?
Heck in this case can we configure FMS and choose not to install Apache at all and be OK?
I have access to a flash media server on a CDN.I want to allow people to easily connect to this server. Currenty, they need to an additional software to connect to the FMS.It would be nicer if they could just connect to the server with their browser.So I assume I need to create a SWF file and connect from this file to the FMS (with Actionscript).The end result would look like the demo of the jquery webcam plugin, only that the SWF file would establish a connection to the FMS and stream the video to the FMS
Lets say I have a PHP application using very cheap shared hosting. What is the best way to stream audio/video (mp3/mpeg) that is tens of megabytes to hundreds of megabytes in size. I am thinking of a PHP based cross-domain proxy that uses caching. Is there something wrong with this approach?
I m a begginer with FMS. I have a licenced version of FMS and I want to stream a live video from the Localhost or another machine with camera. And then then I should broadcast it to many clients. I don't know how to begin
I have a windows server box 2008 R2 with Adobe Flash Media Server installed on it version 4.5. I have installed Flash Media Server and input the serial and all that fun stuff. All ports have been forwarded properly, Once the server is up and running I go to the admin console just to make sure all is running well. Once up and running I turn to my Media Encoder and enter my FMS URL as well as the stream, (livestream?adbe-live-event=liveevent). I select my input device and it connects and says streaming to primary. Now Yesterday I did this and it was streaming correctly i check with my ipad and the livepkgr was working, I have live video on my ipad. I then went to my website to check and make sure all was working on there and sure enough my live event was being streamed to there was well! Sweet right? No wrong....The server was shut down after this test trial assuming everything was working.
When I turned it on today the flash media encoder still connected and streamed right and when i check the ADMIN console it appears to be working and connected the right way, but my problem is when i go to my website i just get a black screen with nothing playing on it, and on my ipad for some reason I get the last 30 seconds of a piece of the live clip we where streaming last night and then it stops.......I have nooooo clue what is wrong and it is driving me up the wall. My hope is to be able to stream from my mac to my Media Server and then be able to embed it into my website as well as have it playable on ipad/Android (havent worked on android part yet because of this whole problem).
