Media Server (read-only)

I have tried to install FMG on linux as per instructions. It installs successfully. But it is not starting up? There no logs created? Anyone having the issues? I have tested on Centos 5.5 32bit, Ubuntu 32bit, and Ubuntu 64bit. Same situation....

there lacks of detailed examples on how to use the API in FMG HTTP API.pdf, so could you please show some examples, e.g. how to add/remove a sip account? how to make it register to a sip server?

Hi All,Please pardon me if I am writing in the wrong section.I'm having a problem trying to download FMS developer edition.Basically when I try to download I get a window where I have to update my address data, which I do so correcly. After that I see the following screen:After this I continue and then I get sent back to the previous screen with the message "a general error occurred please try again".Can anyone help?Thanks,Domenico

Hello, I need to do stream uploaded videos to only particular group. It should not be forwarded or back warded by viewers. It should be just like telecasting videos in Television. For example, I just uploaded a video (30 mints length). I shared the video to my friends at 5.00 PM and My friend shared the same video to his friends at 5.15 PM.  So It should be like playing uploaded video from 5.00PM to 5.30 PM and the same video from 5.15PM to 5.45PM to my friend's friends. It should be like playing(telecasting) one video to many people at different times and Viewers cant forward or  backward. Just watch it only once.  Please help me out. How can we do this by using amazon web services and Flash Media Server. Thanks in advance.Arun Varghese

Hi,When running a peer-assisted multicast video event, what determines when a peer might switch to another peer?What I'm asking is that a peer joins the group, is handed a few peers that may be decent cadidates to pull the video stream from.  They start pulling that stream from peer1 and if they can't connect (or I assume if the connection is terrible) they will try the next peer.  What if I want the peer to give up (and try another peer) if the quality of the stream coming from a peer is not terrible but is not great either.  Is that configurable?Sincerely,Greg Pulier

Hi There,To keep things "simple" on my server, I made the decision to install PHP using the Apache 2.2 install that ships with Adobe FMS 4.5.  After manually installing PHP, and seeing how it changed the httpd.conf in the Apache 2.2 conf/ directory, my browser just hangs or tells me that a connection cannot be made when I point it to a PHP script.  The site will server up .html pages just fine.  Here are the lines that the PHP installer added to the httpd.conf file:#BEGIN PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALLPHPIniDir "C:/PHP/"LoadModule php5_module "C:/PHP/php5apache2_2.dll"AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php#END PHP INSTALLER EDITS - REMOVE ONLY ON UNINSTALLOne would think that is all that is needed, but seems like it is not. I have double checked that the .dll file is, in fact, at C:\PHP, and it is.  What's the deal Adobe?  Can I use your bundled install of Apache 2.2 and a manual install of PHP together?

fms4+p2p can play in Local area networkbut can't connected in Public networkwhy?

Are there any really simple examples of writing a hello world app on FMS that's accessed from Flex?  Something as basic as a Flex app poking a custom FMS app and getting a response from server-side ActionScript would be great.  I've looked all through the documentation and this seems to be lacking.Cheers

We are streaming conference calls from a PBX to the web using the FMG / FMS combination to convert the calls from SIP to RTMP. The RTMP stream is being passed to a CDN for delivery to the audience. Our current deployement is resulting in very clipped / tinny audio - we have tried many configs on both the RTMP, Speex side and we have also tried serveral different Codecs (NM8k, NM22k and Speex) and volume options. Please can someone advise regarding settings to produce the best quality audio.We can output our SIP stream using the Speex codec - would it be possible to remove the need for any transcoding by FMG?As we are passing the stream to a CDN we are doing all the processing in FMS e.g.application.legService.onLeg = function(info) {   application.legService.setWriteCodec(info.legID, "speex");  application.legService.setWriteAudioGain(info.legID, 70);  application.legService.setLegStateSendRecv(info.legID);    return true;}All advice greatly appreciated.D.

Please can someone advise how to identify versions of FMG.   We have downloaded 2 versions so far - one that came bundled with FMS and the other as stand alone download from the Adobe web site.I can not tell which is the most recent version - also the direct download states that is a pre release version - is this product officially released? Also please can someone advise what the product roadmap is for FMG.

Is it possible to use origin/edge setup when streaming using HDS ? I have succesfully tested using RTMP but when I try the HDS string - get error "we are having problems with playback". I can view the stream directly if I connect to the origin server. I have 1x origin server and 1x edge server.Any suggestions ?

i want to route some calls from an outside SIP server to a flash client(e.g. the sample flash phone) registered to an FMG, the SIP server can be configured to forward the SIP call request with predefined prefix e.g. "8***" to the FMG, but it seems that the FMG rejects them even i have re-configured the dialplan in workflow.xml as follows:...<Condition variable="destNum" value="^8...$">     <AppNode sequence="1" app="bridge" args="rtmp|${destNum}@profile_default"/>     <AppNode sequence="2" app="hangup" args="null"/></Condition>...i added the above conditions to all contexts, "sipPhoneContext","sipGatewayContext","rtmp", but all dont work.How to configure workflow.xml as well as other xmls to make it work? For other SIP server, it is a easy-to-implement feature to take call forwarding from other servers.BTW, is there a detailed guidance on FMG configuration? I even dont know what other "variables" are besides "destNum"?Than

HelloA few questions1) What is the correct linking format for standard web browsers? (windows and mac boxes/laptops) Is rtmp better then http? What are the advantages / disadvantagesrtmp://SERVERIP/livepkgr/streamnamevshttp://serverip/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/streamname.f4m2) for mobile devices - what mobile phones / pads are supported under this linking format?where does the android fit in?http://serverip/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/streamname.f4m3)  if i webcast to two servers using the backup - how do i create a roll over code in case a server fails?Thanks in advanceDesert Mike

Okay, I admit it, I don't have oodles of cash spilling out of my pockets (yet), so as much as I would love a few full licenses of Enterprise version of FMS 4.5 (and the infrastructure to run them on), that isn't likely to happen (just yet). The second option that I got very excited about was the possibility of FMS on AWS, but as I've discovered, 4.5 isn't available (not quite yet). My project is getting close to release and as I'm heading into testing phase I'm looking forward to taking it in-house, just within a limited budget (as yet).So I have a multi-part question here for anyone in the know:I completely understand the 500 / 15K limit on p2p.rtmfp.net ; it'll do me just fine for testing (and thanks, Adobe!). But what if the application actually gets popular, as we all hope, no? And I'm guessing that the limit range 500 to 15,000 translates to, "don't depend on it", which is again fair for a testing / development server, not production. With AWS, scaling up could be a lot more fluid

I want to create a server script that will reply with the meta of a specified stream.  This is for a player I have that really needs meta, but I hate having to start playing the video to get it.  Is this possible?  What calls does the server need to do to fetch and transmit the meta?Cheers

I have a setup for 1x Origin and 1xEdge - FMS 4.5 dev server. I want to test multicast. Have looked at the multicast configurator tool, just a bit unclear about which server to run this on. Should the live stream connect to the origin server and all clients connect to the edge server. Besides the vhost.xml file config to switch the server to Edge, what else should I be looking at ? I have tried this setup and cannot pull the stream from Edge. FYI ... I'm running IP only multicast. Any suggestions ?

hi,FMS has print error 'JavaScript runtime is out of memory', is their any way to check the js runtime memory used for specific instance ?is there any permanent solution for this ?thanks,vishal sood

Hi All,I would like to know whether it is possible to record a live stream with default fms application "live" or "livepkgr", so that the video stream can be played later on using "vod" application? If this is possible then how? What should be configuration for "live" or "livepkgr" application? I am using Flash Media Development Server 4.5.Thanks in advance.Thank you,Naresh

Hello All,I purchased FMS 4.5 for Amazon web services (AWS)  but there is no Amazon Machine Images for this verison. When I purchase the AMS verison of FMS 4.5 it comes with a licence key and it haves a generate to generate more keys. However when I install FMS it tells me that my key is invalid. The only download I get is the devleoper download but the key does not work for it... Has anyone encourter this and have a solution to this. The only machine images available is the FMS 3. Thanks

Hello,The current version of FMS available as an instance on Amazon Web Services EC2 is 4.0.3. This lacks the features introduced in FMS 4.5 for sharing peer introductions across multiple servers (unless I've missed something), which would, obviously, be very useful when using FMS in a scalable cloud environment.Is there a concrete timescale available for when an update to the EC2 instance might be made available? This would greatly help us assess whether or not this is the right option for us in developing a massive P2P social application...In the meantime, is there any advice available for distributing peer introduction in 4.0.3?Many thanks.

took Lynda course and built a page "universal player" to try flash first, then go to the m3u8 stream, and then try android files lastely; Publishing an on-demand stream with a universal player codeEncoded an 8 second video F4V 800kbps and then all the other formats OGV, WebM etc...Then added code for my own Strobe Player:http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/beginning-fms45-pt06.htmlAll works fine except it loads soooooo slow!!!  and then stops mid stream and loads some more:-(What am i do'n wrong!!!!????Here is code:<link href="Styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><script src="Scripts/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script></head><body><div class="container"><div class="header"><a href="#"><img src="Graphics/Logo.gif" alt="Insert Logo Here" name="Insert_logo" width="400" height="90" id="Insert_logo" style="background: #8090AB; display:block;" /></a> <!-- end .header --></div>&
