Media Server (read-only)

Hey fellas, I'm not an Adobe guy, but I was tasked with build a streaming media server, easy enoug, server 2008, some updates and a trial version of media server 4 and its done. Hmmm, now what? I threw a video in the webroot vod folder and typed the address in the url bar on the test page and it worked, so I assume its runngin correctly, but now what do I do? I guess I can create a folder that users can dump videos into but how do I create a page that will display the contents fo those folders for streaming? I'm not really sure what my next step is I guess.

I'm streaming h.264 from a live conversation between two people, and storing via FMS. I've noticed that quite often, the recorded video seems to have out-of-order frames or other issues that result in poor quality video, although the live stream when viewed live at the other client looks fine. Here's an example:I always see similar blocking when I initially begin streaming the other client's h.264 content, but this generally resolves within ~1 or 2 seconds.Using the following h.264 settings:var h264Settings:H264VideoStreamSettings = new H264VideoStreamSettings();h264Settings.setProfileLevel(H264Profile.BASELINE, H264Level.LEVEL_2);_netStream.videoStreamSettings = h264Settings;A few more notes on this that might be helpful:I've tried both RTMP and RTMFP connections - both result in the same issueI don't always see the issue with recorded video, but it's quite common (~50% of the time)The live stream does not look messed up at all to the other client (except for the initial stream connec

Hi Guys,I would like to implement in my videochat Application on my FMS Server the following situation:3 Users are currently streaming their audio and video to the FMS. They can get every stream niceley from the server.The feature I would like to implement and don't know if FMS does support this is:If User1 is in converstion with User2 (in conversation means both see each other with audio) and now User3 wants to receive User2's stream, I want to have it send by the server not colorful but in greyscale. Is there any way that FMS is able to do this for a specific stream for users?I was thinking of a type of requesting, and server knows wether stream is already in conversation or not. If this is true, FMS should send every other user requesting one of those streams in conversation with grey colors.May this be possible with FMS?

Hi,I'm no techie and I wan't to ensure I'm not doing anything wrong during an upgrade of our FMIS server. When I try to install the upgrade (3.5.7) I'm selecting "upgrade to Adobe Media Server 3.5.7" > "next", a popup warning appears:"A previous version of Adobe Media Server is currently installed'Notice* The installed version will be uninstalled.All files, including config files, meay be deleted.Would you like to continue?"Do I need to stop here and backup something? In case "yes"- what? ....or I'm I just paranoid and ignore > continueI terrified of doing something wrong...Thanks

Hello,I'm trying to develop a p2p (RTMFP) webcam chat application with AS3 and FMS. For test purposes I've been using "rtmfp://p2p.rtmfp.net" and now I'll use FMS on Amazon AWS.What I couldn't understand is which application type should I use on FMS? There is four preconfigured application types on FMS, these are live, livepkgr, multicast and vod. I guess live or multicast but I cannot choose between them, I'm a little bit confused. Or maybe I don't have to setup any application? Can you help me about that?My application scenerio is; a user will connect to FMS and webservice and will get other person's farID from webservice and will be on audio/video chat with remote side as he sends stream. (with one person) Pretty much like sample Cirrus application.Also I've another issue, I also want to publish one person's (consultant in my case) video to several people (customers) at the same time (one to many), customers won't publish any video or audio, they'll only watch and hear consultant. C

Hi, I'm new to all this, so please forgive my lack of knowledgeMy purpose of this is to do high quality video conference.I've set up flash media server, and installed media encoder on another computer, input and output looks very much the same, but on the media player, it has about 1 second delay even on LAN, is this because of the buffer of the flash player? how can i disable buffer completely?

I've tried this forum before with no ❤️ so far. I hope this time I can get some help from the community...I'm building out the baseline demo for a startup and I was hoping to use FMS as a solution, but our service will require that live video and DVR'd video (saved for VOD is OK too) be available from IOS devices (iPad, iPhone). I absolutely have to have a solution (however kludged for now) that enables us to deliver live streaming video on these devices.I've been using FMS on EC2 in both "production" and development environments and have HTTP Dynamic streaming to Strobe, but a flash player this isn't very helpful to me - I'm good with RTMP in these cases.I need this solution so that I can demo now. My option, for the moment, is too look at other solutions.Examples, helpful docs, an official Adobe release date on the functionality would be super.Thanks and cheers,     Leo O'Donnell     BigLife Labs - BifLifeLabs.com

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this or not, but I thought I remembered a way to pass a username and password to FMS via Flash Media Live Encoder? I simply need to pass two values, equivalent to this in AS3:netConnection.connect(url, "username", "password");My application requires authentication for publishers for security reasons, and for some reason, I can't find the option for doing this in FMLE. Am I missing something?

Hello,It's possible to clean DVR record file without stoping broadcast to client?Best Regards,Henry

Currently we can define user profile in sip.xml. Is there any way to make it dynamic? For instance: I want to login into FMS app providing my SIP username and password (or even SIP host and port), and then make a call with this credentials. Now CallControlService.createLeg supports only profiles from sip.xml (sip|1234567@myprofile). The goal is to make a call with supplied username and pass to sip gateway.Defining profiles for all users in sip.xml is not the answer, as we have tons of them.

I have 3 computer (192.168.1.101 -> 192.168.1.103) and 1 ADSL modem (192.168.1.1)I had setup FMS on my primary pc (192.168.1.101)My Internet (public) IP: 123.213.15.141 (example)How can i setup the FMS and the ADSL Modem for using FMLE from remote computer ??I tried rtmp://123.213.15.141/live...but it couldn't connect

I've tried on TinyChat but Flash won't recognize it except as a microphone. I've tried at BlogTV, the webcam shows up in Flash Settings but there's no video output. Webcam does work in it's own LifeCam software & supposedly with Windows Messenger software (hasn't been tested on Messenger). I've installed the Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2 and that seems to be working but BlogTV still won't respond.

I'm planning to have a livestream running 24/7, and to be able to handle the high amounts of storage I need, I want to save the live stream in fragments (By size. For example: each fragment will be 1GB).How can I do this on the server-side?

Can anyone tell me why I would not be getting Netconnection.NetworkChange and Netconnection.Closed events would not be getting fired when I am working on Flash CS5?I get the Success event, but when I am attempting to test my reconnection code I pull out my network cabled and I never get the closed event.Interestingly, I do get the Closed and NetworkChange events when I am debugging, but not when I just run the movie.

fms livecodec = speex is too noisy:    set noiseSuppressionLevel is no use.but codec = Nellymoser is ok.does anyone knows why?

From looking at the conf files and docs, it seems that FMG cannot dynamically allow additional users to login without first modifying the conf file and restarting the service. My question is can FMG be used solely as a flash interface/relay for another sip server?Example (fake values):1) I have several users already registered in a sip server: sip01, sip02, sip03. Domain is 1.1.1.1. Outbound Proxy is 1.1.2.22) I've already set up a FMG+FMS server in another remote server.How do I connect this two servers so that I can login on the FMG using the accounts on the sip server?What files do I need to modify (sip.xml, workflow.xml)?Do I need to do the changes manually for each user or can the changes be handled dynamically?

Hey,Has anyone attempted to implement a captivate video into Flash Media Server (specifically an aggregated Captivate video in Flash Streaming Server).Please let me know if you've run into any problems, if this works, or if you have any other information.Thanks!

I recently had to tell a client that I didn't want to work on their project because I was unclear about something. When you append a recording from a stream does the metadata get updated correctly after the append? I've worked with metadata before and from my recolection anytime a .flv was changed I had to manually update the metadata. Can anybody shed some light on this for me please.

I have a scenario where there exist a number of multicast video streams on the local network; I have NO access to the initiator of those streams, I can only consume them.  What I'd like to do is, preferably via some method that can be triggered programmatically (ideally at the command line), fire up an FMS application which will record the video from one of those streams in order to provide DVR functionality to one or more flash clients.In other words:Camera --> Multicast Stream --> ???  --> Flash Media Server application/stream --> Flash consumer...Trying to fill in that ???.  If it requires some other software -- VLC, or whatever -- that's fine.  The solution can be utterly hackish as long as it works.Thanks!-Dan

Hi,I used the FMS  3.5 for some time now to stream a Webcampicture to one Client via RTMP. It works great, but because of the Latency I decided to try RTMFP instead. I have a FMS 4 now, but I can only find Tutorials about RTMFP with the stratus-service not with FMS4. Obviously it's not much different, but I couldn't find any information if there is a testapplication installed (like the "live"-App I'm currently using), which RTMFP-Adress I have to use and do I still need a Developerkey?This is the code I'm using at the Moment in Flash CS5 to publish a stream:import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.events.*; import flash.media.Camera; import flash.media.Video; import flash.net.NetStream; import flash.net.NetConnection; var video:Video; var ns1:NetStream; var ns2:NetStream; var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection(); var camera:Camera = Camera.getCamera(); //init    camera.setMode(160,120,15,false);    camera.setQuality(0,75);    video = ne

Hi, I am developing an auth pugin for my application in FMIS 4.  I have some doubts regarding the same.    1.  Can i access the "application" and "client" objects of my SSAS from C++ code ?    2.  If my SSAS has a function how can i access its return value from C++ code ?    3.  Is there any option for my SSAS to call a method written in  my C++ plugin code ?Any help would be appreciated.thanks in advance.

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:http://forums.adobe.com/message/3300894I 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.Can you please share your ideas?ThanksShan.

Hi there,I've noticed an issue while creating one way (A publish B play) stream through RTMFP. When I try to create connection between computers behind the same NAT (same IP) stream playing is not fired at all, but on the other hand the same code works on remote computers (different IPs).This issue arose after releasing final release of Flash Player, in a beta release everything works fine, so I'm really confused.We checked NAT settings and there are no differences for this cases. I wonder where problem lies, any help will be appreciated.Thanks in advance,Jakub

Hi,any one is done by sample program with Strobe media player and Flash media server?if yes means please send me some tutorials or sample file with steps how to do.

How can I receive a 1.5Mbit stream from Flash Media Live Encoder and then re-encode it to 2 different streams?It's much like what Ustream is doing. They receive one high-quality feed, and then re-encode to a couple of different qualities in realtime.I want to do it this way because it's much more bandwidth-efficient.Thanks.
