Media Server (read-only)

Hi, I need a help. A whole day I am searching with my friend, called Google, for any good idea, how to do onDisconnect method working. If I unplugged a net cable or client is behind a firewall "onDisconnect" method doesnt recognize, that client was going out. I try to use a ping function, but with no result. Now, I dont know how to continue. It is very important thing for me. Can you help me somebody? :-( Honza Sorry for my bad english...

Thats'the error i get after a reinstall that was RECOMMENDED to me by Adobe (europe). The story so far (several weeks of agony in a nutshell): Decided to buy FMS professional to be used with profile 2 (1000u/40Mbit) - several days of calling adobe/reseller/ ...different number..adobe/reseller/mailing etc etc later finally ..they know what i want....

Hi, I have been using Flash Communication Server 1.5 for quite some time now and have developed a few applications in it. I was just wondering whether Flash Media Server 2 is backwards compatible. So if I upgrade will all of my existing applications still work? Also, just wondering whether it is worth paying all that extra money for the new server. It doesn't seem like there are any new components, what is the real advantage of this new server? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, Adam

I am using Flash Media Server for the first time, and I'm not able to login to the Manager Console. I don't know which Server to user and what the name and the adress is. Hope someone can help me with it as soon as possible! Thanks in advance.

Hi! I have a simple application that records the output of the Microphone on a FMS server using a simple ns.publish (name,record). My question is if I change the rate of the microphone , will that change the sound quality of the .flv file stored on the server ? Or is the recorded sound rate fixed by FMS ? Thanks, George

When i record a stream to the FMS, press stop and then playback my recorded stream, i seem to always be missing the last second or so. Is this a buffer issue? How can i solve this?

Hi , i want web_based audio recording system which can record the audio files ,compress and can uploaded to the server. it should be in Flash.

Hello everyone, I'm hoping that someone can help me out with this problem. I'm trying to stream a prerecorded video from FMS2 to the Flash Player that's about 4.5 seconds long, and what I'd really like to do is preload the whole video. The problem is that if I set the buffer length to longer than 4.5 seconds the video plays back in what looks to be fast forward. After the entire video has buffered, it begins playing but skips tons of frames and runs from the beginning to the end in less than a second. I'm thinking that maybe it's only displaying the keyframes that have been encoded into the flv using Flash Video Encoder. Does anyone know why this happens? Is it possible to buffer the entire duration of a video stream? I've tried several other buffering strategies, including having a very small buffer (the result being that the video plays fine until the buffer runs out, then pauses while the buffer refills, and then basically skips the rest of the animation and ends up at the end.)

I have two buttons. Record/Stop I press Record button to record the video and press Stop button to stop recording.Now,I spend 1986 ms from press Record button to press Stop button. But the flv file's length is 1920 or 1910 or 1915 ms. So I want to get the time length from send record command to record video really. Can you give me some suggests. Thanks!

Hi... :) I think this can be a simple yes/no question... Does anybody know if I can insert the cue point when recording an FLV via FMS2 via AS??? Thanks... :) CyanBlue

Hi all, I'd like to know whether Flash Media Server is a good choice for this project... Visitors use their microphones to record 5 seconds of audio. When they're ready, the audio is sent to the server, where its appended to the end of a large audio file that stores everyone's recordings (one after another). The idea is that visitors would slowly create an "audio" story, each person adding 5 seconds. They're allowed to hear the last 10 seconds of the story (the previous 2 recordings) before they record, but nothing more. At some point visitors would be allowed to hear the story in its entirety. Is it possible?

Hello, i must develop a multiplayer flash game. Ok i'm studying and try more example but is there some code example online? i research source of a easy multiplayer game but i dont find..

we've developed some Flash video applications that will have 1000 (avg.) to 5000 (at peak time) connections for a very large scaled project in Turkey. We have all tested our applications with Developer Edition and when we made sure that everything is ok, we decided to start the project. I have checked this adobe website for contact about FMS licences. I could not found any office or reseller number in turkiye. so i tried the numbers from the beginning. all of the contacts that i ve talked took my name my office number my company name etc. but again none of them helped me about the situation. they all redirected me to other support numbers. (both in US,UK and Amsterdam) i wasted 2 weeks (both day and night because of the time zone issues). of course none of the contacts helped me about my questions. most of them were unaware of Origin Edge licences. After calling about 100 contacts (which is also not quite cheap if you are calling abroad) they told me that maybe "insight" could help me.

Hi, I am developing an application where in i broadcast the audio and video to other users with netconnection and netstream objects. I am able to send and receive the video of the users but i am not able to broadcast the audio. The code which i have used is as follows: ns = new NetStream(nc); var mic=Microphone.get(); var cam = Camera.get(); ns.attachVideo(cam); ns.attachAudio(mic); guest_1.video.attachVideo(cam); guest_1.video.attachAudio(mic); ns.publish(id); Can anyone please help me why i am not able to send and receive the audio.Any help would be appreciated.

Hi....i created this script hoping that i could create a remote shared object but when i look in the flash media server 2 admin console under the shared objects catagorey I see the connection but I don't see the object. Is something wrong with the code? I'm new to flash and if you would correct the code i'd appreciate it. BTW i'd like the simplest remote shared object possible....if you feel like writing a remote shared object i'd appreciate it. my_nc = new NetConnection(); my_nc.connect("rtmp:/development"); // function initRSO(){ my_rso = SharedObject.getRemote("myRSO", my_nc.uri, true); // my_rso.data.someVariable="this value"; trace("value is: " + my_rso.data.SomeVariable); // my_rso.connect(my_nc); } my_nc.onStatus = function(info) { if (info.code == "netConnection.Connect.Success"){ initRSO(); } };

i have a videochat with about 500 user once a day it becones slow and i have to restart flah media server. why?

What do I need run a Flash Communication Server? or Media 2 server. -Windows XP or Windows 2000 Server? -Router (security) - ? - ?

Hi, Was informed by a mod over at the flash comm forums here, that I could run the developer edition of FMS on my XP box but i've been having loads of trouble talking to it from my mac.. Do i require a web server loading to serve the media server? something like apache? I've just tried accessing an flv in the following directory C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash Media Server 2\applications\videoApp\streams\_definst_\greenScreen.flv, via an FLVPlayback component running from my mac with the contentPath of rtmp://172.16.100.138/videoApp/greenScreen.flv and it fires a 'failed to load' error when attempting to talk to the box to match source dimensions etc.. I have set the server address to the IP of the machine: 172.16.100.138 and my mac's is 172.16.100.11 (same subnet/gateway) If anyone has any advice on how I can get talking to it i'd be really grateful.

Hi, I am developing an application in which i m broadcasting my audio and video to other users. Can i somehow get the bandwidth of this video/audio stream. Please help me resolve this issue. Awaiting for positive response.

I'm using Lisa Larson's tutorial on the adobe website to create a dynamic playlist from an XML file to work with out FMS server. After playing around with it for an hour I finally got it to connect to the FMS and generate the thumbs but it won't stream any of the videos. When I click on the list item the video player comes up but doesn't load a video. Any ideas? The live log in the FMS console is giving me this error: " Error: command msg sent before client connection has been accepted." This is the link for the tutorial http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_player.html

Hi there, I have just set up FMS on a server within our datacentre. I have opened up the ports on the firewall for that servers IP address but I still cant connect to the application from the outside world!!! Any ideas? Thanks David

I am having trouble with dialup users who are publishing webcam video using NetStream.publish(streamname, "record"). The video doesn't completely upload because there's a backlog of data in the buffer that gets tossed when they hit the Stop button in my app and the stream gets closed. I figured a workaround would be to pause the uploading stream and wait for the bufferLength to reach zero before closing the stream, but I can't figure out how to pause a publishing stream. NetStream.pause() doesn't seem to work. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hi, Thanks for looking at this. I am trying to play diferent segments of a movie.flv looped in duplicated MovieCLips. However, only the first MovieClip loads the video, and the rest of duplicated MovieCLips are created but without the flv. here is the code: // Create the NetConnection object, and connect to the FlashComm // application on the server. var nc = new NetConnection( ); nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/surveillance"); //number of times looping j=6; count = 0; //starting point for the video starting=0; //duplicate MovieClip that plays the Video while (count<=j) { this.one.duplicateMovieClip("one"+count, count); var ns = new NetStream(nc); this["one"+count].Mymov.attachVideo(ns); ns.play("security4","starting",10); //once done play it again ns.onStatus=function(info:Object){ if(info.code == "NetStream.Play.Stop"){ ns.seek(0); } } count += 1; starting +=3; } I would appreciate any help. THanks.

Hi, I hope you excuse my complete lack of knowledge Currently we have 2 servers running Solaris 10 with PhP,Mysql and apache. We have just found out that to do a lot of stuff we planned to do we need FMS, obviously seeing that there is no support for Solaris has caused the onset of mild panic. I cant find any useful information on how to overcome this Getting an additonal server that runs a supported OS just for the FMS is an option but we have no idea what would need to be done to then integrate this with the other servers. Any help would be great! Cheers
