Media Server (read-only)

We've encountered conceptual difficulties figuring out which streamis currently being played / started / finished using the onStatus handler for theStream Object.The documentation it is written that the only event which returns details aboutthe stream currently being played is "NetStream.Play.Start"This is very peculiar and does not allow internal monitoring offinished streams...We are creating dynamic playlists on the FMS and there isa need to know which stream has just finished playing, not onlya general notification that A stream stopped playing such as NetStream.Play.Completed or NetStream.Play.Switch (returned from the onPlayStatus handlerof the Stream object)The best solution would be, to be able to define a customhandler function to be executed at the end of playing a certainstream (live or recorded) which will allow perfectaction being taken when the stream reaches its designated end.for example:myStream.play("stream name", 10, -1,false,myFunction);where myFunction would be a c

HiI am successfully able to connect FMS and get stream out from FMS,But how i can store Live  stream content.........

In a conversation with engineers recently at a CDN it was suggested to me that streaming all video over RTMPT only was a viable solution to the barriers posed by firewalls and proxies blocking port 1935.  They indicated that they had seen no signifigant performance degradation with tunneling and that many of their clients were making the switch from "rollover" type connection models to connection via RTMPT only.This ran counter to my notion of the process.  I have always thought the packet overhead was signifigant. Is it?  How bad is the performance hit for streaming live h.264 video?

Anyone have any experience using broadcastMsg in the FMS Admin API? I am making an RTMP call to this method to call a method in an application. The broadcastMsg method always returns a success for me, even if I call a non-existent method. The method in the app I am trying to call is called getClientIPs. When I call this method from a standard NetConnection.call(), it works fine and traces a result in the app's Live Log in the FMS Admin Console. However, it seems to never be called by broadcastMsg. I never see any output in the Live Log using this method.Here is how my method is configured in my application:Client.prototype.getClientIPs = function(){    trace( 'ip is 127.0.0.1' );    ips = new Array();    ips.push( '127.0.0.1' );    return ips;}I have tried defining on the application object as well as in the root scope, to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get the method to be called by broadcastMsg in

I have fms 3.5 installed, i did not install Apache because i already have iis7 running. how do i configure fms with iis7 to allow for http tunneling/streaming when rtmp is blocked?

I am trying to figure out how a client sends video or audio streams to the server who then sends to other clients.Help pls

Hello,I am wondering if this is at all possible in FMS.I have been trying to do this locally on my machine by using the download simulator but the simulator doesnt seem to work especially when I give the player a 2GB file to load over a 14kbps connection, the file seems to load within a split second and absolutely no buffering occurs.My problem below needs to be answered before I can persue and purchase and set up a web server to run FMS as a production server, but understandably I do not want to do this until I know it is possible to do what I want to do.Anyway here goes, this is what I want to know if it is possible:Let say I have put a 60min video on the server which I want to stream.  But I only want to stream the last 20mins of it.  Am I able to set the player to stream from the last 20mins and for there to be no progressive download required before?  I need the stream to start almost immediately from the start of the last 20mins and for it to continue plaing until

Hi, I need to do some development of Actionscript on the server side using FMS 3.5, but I can't find any documentation about what kinds of modules I may use when doing this sort of development. Can someone point me to a reference that can give me a better idea of what modules are accessible to me when writing AS on the server in FMS 3.5?Thanks.

I'm trying to tie together information from the requesturl passed on the netconnection to events in the log file.  I tried to do this by emitting a trace message in my serverside action script with client.id and then hoping that I could match it to the field c-client-id in the access log.  Unfortunately the two don't seem to be the same.  For example a given session, my client.id is DCAoEU7K and my corresponding c-client-id in the access log is 5419894433271333700.  Does anyone have any clue on how to do this?  Thanks.--dan aronsondan@247fps.com

Hi all, I am trying to make some useful reporting using the access log files and clientid. I assumed c-client-id and Stream.onStatus infoObject clientid content were the same thing, but when testing my client machine returns client like BIAYYjdH and the server logs clientid as numbers only. I have spent a few hours looking on the net to see wether there was any discussion about clientid type or format, but still no luck. Am I going the wrong direction? Thanks a lot, Best d

Hi my name is Göran and I know this is probably the wrong place to post my question but as far as I can see there´s no forum for FMLE here. I´m using the betaversion for mac. I was broadcasting to justin tv last night and decided to try out the record feature i FMLE. It looked like it worked ok and a 125 mb f4v landed on my harddrive. There´s no way I can play it back though or for that matter convert it mov etc etc. What am I doing wrong do I need another special app for playback or converting. Seem a bit strange if this feature is onboard the FMLE but you can´t use it. ThanksGöran

Hello!Please could anybody help me!Every time while I'm connected to the FMS 3.0 admin console, it works for about 3-5 minutes and then drops. "Lost connection" message is appeared.I have studied logs files and I found there the following information:core.log2010-02-22      01:19:40        31930   (i)2581233      Core (31930) disconnecting from admin: 200.     -2010-02-22      01:19:40        32033   (i)2581233      Core (32033) disconnecting from admin: 200.     -admin.log2010-02-22      01:18:37        441     (e)2671287      Admin Command Timeout: (Command (getVHostStats) timed out.)     -2010-02-22      01:18

I read a blog article ( http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=665127) talking about switching between different bit rate video streams of the same video content on fly. But I can not find such ability in RTMP's specification. I am wondering if such function has to be implemented by users with ActionScript? Thanks! Yue

Greetings,Getting right down to it,  I am having troubles finding a way to switch videos during a live stream.  For example,  broadcasting a show and switching to a commercial and then back to the live feed.If anyone could lead me to an answer would be much appreciated.Thank you

Hi,       Does anybody has idea about locking system in FMS server side code. Like we have locking system in Coldfusion and other technologies (CF lock).Like shared objects we have lock, but what If I want to implement lock on the particular script. For example at onConnect of any user to FMS,  I have script which is doing 8-9 different tasks before or after accept the user for that FMS application session (including remoting calls).Now if 20 users came at the same time in the same room, how will FMS execute them and process the 8-9 task, which user will be executed first and who would be next.In short, how FMS will execute the piece of code or process for multiple user at the same time.So locking system can fix this problem I think.Is  there anything else we can do to make this system better.Looking forward any help in this area. If there is any expert please suggest the best solution.Thanks,Amitabh Arya

Hi,I am publishing my IP(network camera) stream over FMS,For that i have to create Direct show video capture filter in VC++.My filter is working fine with Flash media Live Encoder 3 and also with GraphEdit(app to test filters)but when I publish with my own Action Script code filter code don't work proprely.Let me explain the my  problem:With GraphEdit:-My filter's Create Instance function called only once and at the application close its destructor gets called so i free the memory in destructor.No memory  leakWith Adobe Flash media Encode:- My Filter's constructor and destructor get multiple call but for each constructor call there is one destructor call,and when i close flash media live encoder app,again destructor of filter get called,so no memory leak.With My own ActionScript code:- My filter's constructor get call for 4 time and its destructor get call for only 2 times and even when i close the my applicaiton(SWF file) no destructor gets called. so memory leak.

Hi,I'm trying to use Adobe Flash Media Server 3.5.3 on a WIndows 2008 Standard SP 2 with a network drive mapped as Z, pointing to a samba share.I keep getting a Connection error while trying to view a rtmp file. I'm using the default example from the installation directory. I made the following changes in the files:fms.iniVOD_COMMON_DIR = z:\vodVOD_DIR = z:\vodthe z:\vod directory is shared ad EVERYONE full control. (I can easily read and write on z:)I've mapped the disk using Putty and port tunneling over ssh. I've tunneled port 139, 445 and 1935.Where I'am wrong ?Mant thanks,Nicola.
