Hi,AS3 reference says:MPEG-4-based files (such as F4V or MP4)Specify the stream name as a string with the prefix mp4: with or without the filename extension. Flash Player doesn't encode using H.264, but Flash Media Server can record any codec in the F4V container. Flash Media Live Encoder can encode using H.264.ns.publish("mp4:myvideo.f4v") ns.publish("mp4:myvideo");if I tryns.publish ("mp4:myTest.f4v","record");I always get the following error:Error #2044: Unhandled NetStatusEvent:. level=error, code=NetStream.Publish.BadNameIt seems I should use mp4: prefix but the publish method of Class NetStream says BadName ...any help please ?

I am trying to use the following in my server side script......I've been using these for years but they don't seem to work in FMS 4.5 do I have to upgrade my scripts to continue using them or are these still available? I can't google anything on them so please shed some light on this. I'm going to continue digging into FMS 4.5 in attempt to fix this without a SSAS rewrite. For anybody who is intrested I will be reporting back to this thread when i resolve this issue.         load("framework.asc");load("netservices.asc");gFrameworkFC

Hi All,I have a FMS farm that houses several TB of FLV's...and serves as the back end to a video sharing site in my organization.  I'm looking to upgrade to 4.5 for HLS/iOS support.  I'm getting conflicting information about FLV support for HLS.  Does FLV work, or does it have to be an F4V/MP4 (I'm hoping not....)Thanks.James

I have installed FMS 4.5 successfully. I am able to run all the videos in the index.html page (filmthos.com/flash), including the HLS video on my Iphone. I was able to setup a video player for rtmp and it works fine, but I am having trouble with setting up video players for HLS and HDS. I am looking for somthing simple. The source file or located in these location: /hds-vod/mvp5/media/MP.mp4.f4m and /hls-vod/mvp5/media/MP.mp4.m3u8 respectively (the httpd.conf location for both is HttpStreamingContentPath "/opt/adobe/fms/applications"). So obviously I want a simple video player for the HDS that plays flash and another to play HLS and HTML5. The index.html seems to cumbersome  to fine out how these players work.So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,  I'm working on e-learning project using ASP.NET,C#,SQL Server and Windows XP.I'm developing an interactive videoconferrencing using WebCam and at the same time i want to share the user desktop screen. Through FMS videoconferrencing(WebCam) is working fine. But i'm unable to share screen to online user.Actually i can't understand how will i send streaming of desktop screen to the FMS,  For WebCam I've used Flash 8 and Action Script2.Plz assist me.

I just upgraded to FMS 4.5.  I'm able to stream live event via HDS but I can't stream live events via HLS.  I can use VOD via HLS but not live events..  Any suggestions?  I tried access the HLS url directly on my iphone and even trie embeddeding the <video> tags in a HTML file and get the same results.  What I did notice is that in my application folder on the server I only see the HDS files being created.  I do not see the .ts files that I beleive are supposed to be created when streaming to HLS devices.Help!

1. i wonder that lccs is suitable for Large-scale Live broadcasts such as fmle+fms?【no】2. Whether The LCCS server side is  build on FMS？【Yes,at least has use fms】3. whether the lccs allow developers to edit actionscript which in serverside ?【no】4. if client don't have UDP-enabled,LCCS fall back to RTMP/RTMPS/RTMPT  Automatically。   【RTMP】5. such as  chatroom, whether chat data is saved in serverside? 【No】6. whether i am able to use fms4 to achieve  all functions which in LCCS?【Yes,almost】

We bought FMIS 4.0.  Is some other license required to multicast?Thanks

I just installed Flash Media Server 4.5 on my apache2.2 server. I am running the default webpage from the program, https://filmthos.com/flash/. I get an error when running the HDS streaming sample Error#2032. The rtmp sample runs fine. I run the HLS on IE and it give the error message that it can only run on Safari, whicvh is fine. BUt when I run this sample on Safari nothing happens. So any suggestion would be helpful to figure out the problem. THank you!

i heard that rtmfp which in fms  is a Pull/Push system,but i don't know, how the "push/pull" is working ?would somebody explain it for me? thank you so much。

So recently I have found issues with switching when playing playlists in a player we are developing. So to trouble shoot I built a simple application with buttons to manually switch. The first video in the stream switches just fine. When the player gets to to the second video in the the stream, switch does does not work either with or with out oldStreamName defined in the NetStreamPlayOptions. What happens is the the stream ends prematurely, a few seconds to a few minutes after the the button to switch is clicked. If I just let it pIay with out switching it plays out the whole stream as intended. I can't find any reason for this not to work, so I am wondering if there is an issue with the server. Any idea if this could be a server issue or am I missing something here?Thanks,AdamExample is here.Press button 1 to switch using OldStreamName, button 2 to switch not using OldStreamName, and button 3 to seek to the beggining of the second video in the playlist. There are messages being trace

NOTE: This thread was started in the flash pro forum: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/898879?tstart=0 . However, because of adninjastrators recommandation, I open the thread here:Hello there,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.

Hi Guys,I've spent like the past 5 days trying to get this to work as a client has given me 100GB of videos that are in subfolders.For some reason I'm unable to play media from any subdirectory in vod.All of the media & subfolders are here:C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications\vod\media\This works:C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications\vod\media\sample.mp4Server: rtmp://localhost/vod/_definst_Stream: mp4:sample.mp4This doesn't work: C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications\vod\media\subfolder\movie.mp4Server: rtmp://localhost/vod/_definst_/subfolder/Stream: mp4:movie.mp4I've also tried as the server rtmp://localhost/vod/subfolder/ but it does not work.I've also tried in the stream "mp4:subfolder/movie.mp4" that doesn't work either.I'm pulling my hair out at this and my client is constantly phoning asking if Flash Media Server will work for his needs,Can anyone advise me further on this issue?Thanks

I want to build apps to stream to Apple/IOS devices but I don't have an Ipad or Iphone.......what programs can I use to emulate Apple/IOS devices? Is there an emulator? Or will a download of quicktime work? maybe HTML5 video object will work in any webbrowser. I haven't looked into what it takes to use FMS on Apple/IOS devices, so maybe I will answer this question by this afternoon. Any input is welcome and highly apprciated.

Hi,I am wondering if we should use RMI or NetStreams for our text chat.A few things should be considered, as we have different scenarios that could happen :- Imagine a 2-way text chat, with 2 people connected via RTMFP to the FMES server. Would text chat with RTMFP NetStreams be more appropriate than RMI?- Imagine a 2-way text chat, 1 person connected via RTMP and the other via RTMFP, would the text chat be better over RMI or over RTMP NetStreams?- We need to consider that video/audio are also available, and we use either RTMP or RTMFP NetStreams (depending on the protocol the users connected to the server with).Thanks

Hello, recently been dealing with a problem where outsiders have been able to hijack our Windows 2003 server based Flash Media Server 4 default livestream access point and bounce pirated television content over it. Currently am running this on a campus network and thought I had it locked down so that all incoming port 1935 requests must originate from campus and outgoing streams are served everywhere. This is sort of working, but it is also stopping legitimate traffic from streaming video to off campus visitors. If anyone can shed a light on how to setup my firewall rules that would be great, as I am stumped. Here is the list of how I've setup the rules (not using our real IP's for protection):Campus is a class B network, everything is based off of 123.123.X.XServer sits on 123.123.1.2Port/rulename               Rule                 

Is there a setting I can change so my FME tries to connect after a longer period? As it seems this occurs when FME disconnects from my FMS and then tries to reconnect however on the FMS it still believes FME is connected and so returns the 'Bad Name' erorr.Ideally I would like FME to keep trying to reconnect and publish the stream.

I have some questions regarding 4.5 and deciding which version we must license (FMIS or FMS). Obviously there is a huge price difference and as this is within a local network we don't require encryption or multicast. Here is the scenerio we need to stream live DVR to mac, windows browser AND iPhone/iPad and devices running Android 2.2(Froyo)+. I need someone from Adobe to help us decide. Questions1. I see DVR is now listed as a feature in Flash media server page. Does that mean its no longer exclusive to Flash Media Interactive server. For both http streaming and RTMP?2. Previously in order to stream live to Adobe dynamic streaming, Flash media interactive server was required because a live segmenter had to be used. Is this still the case? Or can we just launch adobe live media encoder (FLME) and stream to flash media server.3. Related to #2 can we switch between serving streams via RTMP or dynamic streaming without changing the format of the material on disk?4.I was at a webcast for 4

Hi,I am hoping someone can please answer these questions. Thanks for your time in advance.1)      Does Flash media streaming server 4.5 provide a solution for streaming pre recorded audio/video to iOS?2) Will we be able to create one video format and fms 4.5 will be able to deliver the video in the correct format to all browsers (including ipads and iphones). So in other words the 4.5 software will be smart enough to on-the-fly provide the correct video to an ipad, iphone, standard browser, etc?3)     If yes, what video file format would the video need to be in to be delivered to all devices? Is it any of these OR all “formats derived from the MPEG-4 container such as F4V, MP4, M4A, MOV, MP4V, 3GP, and 3G2 if they contain H.264 video and/or HE-AAC audio. Apple iOS and the HLS format support MPEG2-TS with H.264 / AAC codecs”.4)      What technology would I use to for playback controls in my html page? For example, I

Hi,As far as I know that the DVR function can be triggered by either check mark the "DVR auto Record" at the FMLE or by using the DVRControllerSynch.but I have a hardware device (not a computer software) that stream the video to the serverHow can I force DVRcast to run the DVR feature all the time?
