Media Server (read-only)

I have Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5.0 r405 installed on a Win2003 server.Looking at the FMS upgrade page...http://www.adobe.com/support/flashmediaserver/downloads_updaters.htmlI am not certain which upgrade(s) I should install.  Some of the version numbers/dates are out of sequence:-Flash Media Server 3.5.3, December 18, 2009-Flash Media Server 3.0.5, January 28, 2010Is it necessary to install upgrades in sequence, or will the latest upgrade include all previous updates?

I found that application.onUnpublish sometimes won't be called when a stream stops publishing:application.onUnpublish = function(client,streamObj){  ...}What's the more stable way to know the publishing status of a stream?Related threads but with no solution:http://forums.adobe.com/thread/109029?tstart=1

HiWhen i publish the streams on a linux server, the .flv files have permissions like this:-rw-rw----. And i don't have permissions to access this file on a client browser... Currently, i can only change the permission using "chmod" manually. Could anyone tell me how to automatically change that? Thanks very much.Regards

I subscribe to AWS EC2 for Flash Media Server. I understand how to stream vod. I would like to host applications streaming video and audio, but I do not understand how to make this work on AWS.I am able to copy media content into a new directory under applications on FMS. I can create main.asc in the directory under applications. However, I am unable to access the administration console in order to manage the application. I am able to set the username and password for the admin console within fms.ini in the opt/adobe/fms/config directory, but I do not understand how to restart the admin server from the AWS Management Console in order to have those username/password pair take effect.I have never done this before, so I am not even sure that accessing the admin console is a necessary part of creating an application for FMS, but the tutorials I have seen do include steps performed in the admin console. I have not found any tutorials on configuring an application for FMS on AWS.Any help on

I am new to FMS and RTMP. I am using a Viewcast Niagara 2120 to stream video and audio to FMS. I am unsure how to do anything besides a live broadcast. We would (at least) like to automatically record when the Niagara starts streaming to FMS and stop when its done. Eventually we would like to put something in place that will publish videos in some form as well (but for now thats least important).I keep seeing something about these applications that you can develolp to do certain functions but its a little over my head.Suggestions?Thanks a bunch.

I have a FMS server running that I am hosting some VOD content on.  I am using HTTP dynamic streaming to deliver this content.  Everything runs fine from a technical standpoint, but I am unable to see the connection details in the Admin Console.  I have loaded vod -> defaultinst under the applications tab in the console.  No connection details populate.I believe that this has something to do with me identifying the specific stream that I want to monitor, but I am unaware of how to do this.  Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,I am currently building a movie player which will play movie stored in the FMS with my PC as localhost(later on i will port it to my Android device).However,through the following code, I tried to just simply connect to the localhost to retrieve one of the video,but it keep popping out errors which I don't get it.nc = new NetConnection(); nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/vod");ns = new NetStream(nc); ns.client = customClient; customClient.onMetaData = metaDataHandler; ns.play("mp4:Vultures"); vid.width = 800; vid.height = 390; vid.attachNetStream(ns); addChild(vid);Error log:ArgumentError: Error #2126: NetConnection object must be connected. at flash.net::NetStream/ctor() at flash.net::NetStream() at MoviePlayer/video() at MoviePlayer() at Main/gotoMoviePlayer() at Details/playMovie()ReferenceError: Error #1069: Property onBWDone not found on flash.net.NetConnection and there is no default value.Error #2044: Unhandled AsyncErrorEvent:. text=Error #2095: flash.net.NetConnection was unable

Hi,Have anyone tried accessing the FMS installed in their comp with their Android device?If both my PC and Android devices are connected to the same wifi,the coding below should do the work right?or am I missing something?I ran it on the pc and it works normally,but when i port it to the Android device,it won't connect to the FMS on my PC.nc = new NetConnection();nc.connect("rtmp://my ip address/vod"); nc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,onNetStatus);private function onNetStatus(event:NetStatusEvent):void{ trace(event.info.code); switch(event.info.code){ case "NetConnection.Connect.Success": ns = new NetStream(nc); ns.play("sample"); vid.attachNetStream(ns); ns.client = customClient; customClient.onMetaData = metaDataHandler; ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, statusHandler); break; } }Please advice,thanks!Regards,Tan

Hi,I am trying to build a DVR Cast app using DVRCast 1.2 provided by Adobe. The problem I am facing right now is that I am finding difficult to record multiple streams at the same time so that I can make dynamic stream to work correctly. Even though Adobe has provided DVRControllerSynch, it does not mention anything how the streams are recorded. Please help.Thanks,Ankur

I wonder if it is possible to share live video streaming between applications on the FMIS. and also if it's possible SharedObject sharing between applications. Sorry my english.Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance,@5807549Hi,I am working in multi user chat application, in which users chat history need to save. When the user requests his chat history, respective chat history needs to retrieve.Previously, I plan to save them in a shared object. Since shared object has size limitation and also it will be saved in some encrypted form I plan to save them in a database.Now I came to know that data can be saved in a database using web service or xml socket etc....I am totally confused. Please suggest me which the best way to save chat history.

If I mute my microphone, I get a "leg.state.hangup" event after 90  seconds (also with the FlashPhone sample application). Is there a  possibility to avoid this behavior (or to increase the value of 90  seconds)?Thanks!

GreetingsI am currently running FMIS on a computer running the following specs:Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 @ 2.33GHzMemory: 8GBOS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64bitComcast is the ISP of choice with the Business Class package and the latest bandwidth speed test results are:Download Speed: 2761 kbps (345.1 KB/sec transfer rate)Upload Speed: 1242 kbps (155.3 KB/sec transfer rateI keep running into a problem where the broadcasted content will be available to view without any skips or lags when a few people are on, however, once thousands upon thousands start tuning in, everyone complains about it skipping so bad it's unwatchable. The selected bitrate for the Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3.1 is 100kbps for video and 22kbps for audio, thus totalling 122kbps.Any recommendations? It appears as though something just isn't handling a mass amount of end-users connecting.

Hi,I am trying to connect to the Flash media servers from behind a customer's firewall.From behind this firewall the time taken for a response (its usually success) is around 20-25 seconds.The following is the code I am using to make the connection and listen to the eventsvar nc = new NetConnection();nc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,netStatusHandler);var time1:String = (new Date()).toTimeString();trace(time1+" - Making the connection to FMS");nc.connect("rtmpt://<dnsnameofserver>:80/live");function netStatusHandler(evt:NetStatusEvent){    var time2:String = (new Date()).toTimeString();    trace(time2+": status:"+evt.info.code);}The delay between time1 and time2 is always 20-25 seconds. From other firewalls and non firewalled networks its usually 3-4 seconds.What could be the reason for this huge delay for a response in this case. I have noticed that the first response is always a "NetConnection.Connect.Success".We are looking to deploy a

Is there a way to enable a vhost without having to restart the entire fms server?It seems very horrible that you would have to kill everyone using the server to add new vhost?Thanks in advance!

Hello,I am woundering what Adobe suggest in the following matter. So, when I use f4f packager command line tool,i supply --bitrate value, but I know it in bps (say 500,000 bps). And f4fpackager wants it in kbps. So, should I divide by 1024 or 1000? Does that matter as far as that switching point for client logic? What would Adobe recommend?

FMIS seems like a great solution for my Social Media Site. However my biggest concern with the current beta version of my site is the Echo experienced during Video/Audio chat. I know that AEC is promised to be a part of 10.3 but I dont want to wait that long. I also wanted to take advantage of all the enhancements which are a part of FMIS over the standalone Flash client. So my question to anyone who has or is using FMIS. Does this product have any built in Acoustic Echo Cancellation or anything for that matter which handles the current echo issue.Thank you in advnace for any assistance....

Hi,I have followed the code provided in a thread in this forum on recording a multicast:https://github.com/aduston/fmstesting/blob/master/serverbroadcast/fms/main.asc#L15-23Basically, it gets aan RTMP stream from a client and attached that incoming stream to an outgoing RTMFP stream with multicast enabeled.Everything works fine, except, after the client disconnects from the server, the multicast netstream on FMS continues its life. The admin panel shows that netstream as a stream with type Live.I have tried things like:ns.publish(false);ns.attach(false);but the stream keeps staying on the server, how is it possible to get rid of it when the client disconnects?-A
