Hi, How could I change volume level for streaming FLV file by actionscript? Here is my code: ///// function initStreams() { client_nc = new NetConnection(); client_nc.connect(rtmpServerPath); client_nc.onStatus = function(info) { trace("audio Level: " + info.level + " Code: " + info.code); } myAudio= new NetStream(client_nc); } initStreams(); myAudio.play(fileName); ///// Can I do it without FLVPlayback component? The way I am trying to do it now : voiceOver.setVolume(50) does not work. Thanks you.

I'm developing a web client that record the user speech and send it to the FMS that communicate with a speech processing application...My problem is that I must convert the flv file to wav using ffmpeg, but there are some flv codec that are not supported by ffmpeg . Can I change or choose the codec used by FMS to encode and record the audio file?And if it's possible,How can do this? thanks

I was running the developer version of FCS 1.5 alongside IIS on a Windows 2000 server machine. When I moved up to FMS 2.0.1 I can no longer connect remotely using the my_nc.connect("rtmp://<servername>/test"); test is my application servername is replaced by the server name. It seems able to connect in the management console fine. It gives "NetConnection.Connect.Failed" in onStatus and the core log returns: Asynchronous I/O operation failed (Failed to attach to completion port: The parameter is incorrect. 87). Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Dave

Hi, Today we had 17 students at a school, at a single ip address, attempt to connect to my flashcom server to listen to audio files. They had flashcom server not responding errors...and I am trying to figure out why. The students at first could connect, but then they could not. They all started getting the not responding error. users at other locations were able to connect during this time. So what is the most likely cause? This is what my tech support says: It is most certainly possible that the flashcom server denyed access because every session was loading from the same IP address. Your Flashcom service can accpet 50 simultanious users and 256kbps output bandwidth. (this translates into 32 kilabytes). Essentially it does depend what they were all viewing at the same time as well. So long as each connection comes from a different IP address, you shouldn't run into this issue in the future. If you have any further questions regarding your (mt) Media Temple services, please feel f

I went ahead & completed the tutorial Creating a Dynamic Playlist for Progressive Flash Video by Lisa Larson, it works great. But I cant seem to figure out how to create controls that will actually work with this tutorial. It plays all videos but I cant stop it, play , mute, etc etc. Theres a "Streaming " version Tutorial aslo by Lisa Larson that has controls to stop, play, mute the videos from the playlist but Im not doing stream, Im doing progressive download. I cant seem to figure it out & Im getting frustrated, can some one help me?

Hi Folks, I work for the organization with the Windows Media Server in place, which I administer. I was hoping there would be some level of similarity in terms of workflow between Windows Media and Flash Media 2 servers, but after installing FMS2 I learned that it's a much more complex tool... Here is my situation: My organization's external vendor is going to deliver an interactive Flash module containing a video clip. Total running time of the clip is about 20 minutes, so the SWF file is quite big. A group email with a link to the intranet web page containing this module is going to be sent out to the audience of about 300 people. It's obvious that this content has to be streamed instead of pushed and here comes my headache... Being in the windows media world, I'd create a clip with certain bitrate, publish it on the server, set the limits in terms of viewers or bandwidth, or use multicast for unlimited audience and that's it... What am I suppose to do in case of Flash? I browsed

hi all streight question - if all i'm after is a socket server for chat apps and multiplayer flash games is flash media server an overkill for me ? a lot of these socket servers are really cheap comparing to flash com (woops, i mean media server...) and i don't really need video chats or streaming video... is it the thing to do ? cheers

We're working on a big project with a Beta due monday. It's a flash network game produced for a large Swedish bank. Since it's going to run on bank computers, the firewalls won't allow anything but RTMPT traffic on port 80. Our client and server side scripting works fine... except with RTMPT. When we use RTMPT we can connect to the server and read information from a SharedObject. We cannot however call or recieve calls for methods on the NetConnection or se updates on the SharedObjects. After a while the connection dies but the RTMPT-connected client does not notice. If other clients are connected through RTMP, they can se the RTMPT clients connect and disconnect. All connections are made on port 80. Ideas anyone?

This is my first attempt at building a dynamic playlist for streaming flash video and I'm following the tutorial at "macromedia.com/devnet/flash/articles/video_player.html". I've changed the paths to my FMS and loaded the video files to the applications directory of the FMS (flash_applications/videosource). The thumbnails load and the player skin loads but the videos do not load when I click on the thumbnails. I've read the earlier post about this same issue. I followed the advice from that post and reloaded the 'main.asc' file from my Flash 8 program files but the video still does not play. Here is a link to the site so you can see the problem: http://media.us.elsevierhealth.com/videosource/VideoSource1.swf My FMS is 'media.us.elsevierhealth.com' I believe my code is correct and I believe the paths I've created are correct. If someone could review my code and check the path info I would appreciate it. Here is the code from 'VideoSource1.as' **************************************

Hello, I'm currently writing an application which going to broadcast LIVE video from about 30-40 broadcaster. The application is going to use FMS v2 as the streaming server. Each broadcaster has about 96Kbps Upload connection to the internet. the system will have 1000-5000 users (that will watch the streaming). The user can watch only 1 stream at a time. I understand that the default codec that is used in live broadcasting is Sorenson. I heard that there is a newer codec that is called Vp6. The client is getting a 530px x 530px window. Now: 1. is there a way i can use Vp6 to optimize the video? 2. How can i optimize the video to get the best video expirience? 3. Is the 96kbps enough for that video size (530x530 px)? I'll be glad to get any tip that will help me optimize my video. Thanks.

Hi. I built a dynamic FLV player using XML playlists but using progressive downloads. I've been trying to migrate it to a Flash Media Server 2.01 solution, but after I did, "NetStream.Play.Stop" no longer seems to be happening properly. Question 1: When I put the .FLV files to play in the "\streams\_definst_" of the application directory of the Flash Media Server installation, does that automatically turn it into streaming FLV and no longer progressive FLV? Question 2: What's the best way to detect or to signal my app that the streaming FLV has completed playing? Also, "NetStream.Play.Complete" never seems to occur, even if the stream has completed playing. Thanks!

I've been looking thru all the doc's but I can't seem to find a single thing about whether Flash Media Server can actually support multicast.

Call to serveside function returns "NetConnection.Call.Failed Failed to execute method". I read livedoc thousands times and have no clue. Since main.asc loads another asc for components and this asc is uneditable, I have to make this server-side func using Client.prototype. Any tips from you fms developers who have gone thru this would be much appreciated!!! My codes look like this: Client-side: this.nc("deleteFiles", new Res(), fileID); Server-side: load("uneditable.asc"); Client.prototype.deleteFiles = function(fileID){ ...// codes to delete files on server };

How do I loop a video to play continuously without embedding it? Can I do this using Media Components linked to an external video? Didn't see any settings in components properties. Thanks!
