Media Server (read-only)

I have followed several tutorials and done several tests on our live stream but although multibitrate streams work for HDS delivery in and outside our firewall having no luck delivering HLS delivery to IOS devices (iPhone 5S) neither inside or outside our organisation. I have set all the following :H.264, AAC audio at 44.1KHz Stereo 128kbitProfile: Main          Level:3.1          Keyframe Frequency: 4 seconds3 bitrates :150kbps at 320x240500 at 320x240700 at 320x240encoding to our server rtmp:[server ip]/livepkgrstream : livestream%i?adbe-live-event=liveeventI have set the synchronisation parameter in FMLE to trueOn the AMS server I have created two manifest files for the for f4m and m3u8 with the 3 streams as shown in several online documents using the built in tool in AMS 5.All port settings are the standard ones set on installation. I have also created a crossdomain.xml file again as explained

I typically use .f4v files for my on demand playback media files, however I converted a .mov to a .flv file...  How do I create a .f4m and .m3u8 manifest file that plays .flv files?  Below is the code I normally use for the .f4m and .m3u8 files.  This works great with .f4v files.  I also included my player code.  What am I doing wrong?  The only difference is I'm using a .flv that I didn't use the f4vpp cleaner on..  That shouldn't give me the parse error I'm getting.022714.f4m is the name of my .f4m Flash manifest file.  Below are the contents.<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">  <baseURL>http://IPaddress/hds-vod/</baseURL>  <media href="02-27-14-640-480.f4v.f4m" bitrate="1000"/>  <media href="02-27-14-320-240.f4v.f4m" bitrate="450"/>  </manifest>022714.m3u8 is the name of my HTML 5 manifest.  Below are the contents.#EXTM3U#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=1000000http

Hello,We're using FMIS 4.5 exclusively for recording streams from webcams via RTMP. We don't have a lot of load currently, maybe a couple hundred videos being recorded every day. Every 1 or 2 days the FMS starts logging "The FLV segment cache is full" and refuses to record anymore until a restart. I've adjusted the cache setting to the max for Linux:SERVER.FLVCACHE_MAXSIZE=3000I suspect that it's putting everything recorded into the cache, and refuses to record anymore when the cache is full. Why is it doing this? The files are written to disk, why won't the data be evicted from the cache? Am I misunderstanding what's happening?Thanks for your help.

I have this application that connects to an AMS instance over RTMP and, using NetStream.publish, I stream a video to the server for storage and playback.99% of the time this works, but every so often, a video will be saved with a size of 15KB or less. These videos are corrupted and cannot be played back.Then, suddenly, none of the videos would stream properly, and they all kept coming out with a size of 1KB. I had to restart the server, and the issue cleared up. All users could get Net.Connection.Success events, so they could connect to the server just fine, they just couldn't stream their videos to the server.Why does this happen? How can I stop it?I'm working with Adobe Media Server 5.3This seems to be my issue: http://forums.adobe.com/message/6199891

Hi,I'm using a recent version of CamTwist and the newest Flash Media Live Encoder on OS X Mavericks. FMLE does not find the CamTwist video device and tells me there is none on startup. This isn't right because the CamTwist device is found correctly by all other apps (Skype etc.).So what's wrong here and how do I fix this?

Using licensed FMIS v4.5.1 r484 x64.RTMPT stops working every once in a few days. Restarting FMS fixes the issue. When the problem occurs both RTMP and RTMPT connections generate the following error in master.00.log:Failed to signal process condition: errno(43)Despite the error RTMP works but RTMPT does not. There seems to be quite a bit of memory released after restarting FMS:Before restart:             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cachedMem:      16426572   13315052    3111520          0     267948    9108452-/+ buffers/cache:    3938652   12487920Swap:     10217332        &nb

I can't seem to find any books to purchase on Adobe Media Server 5 or even tutorials, is there a reason for this? Is AMS gone by the wayside?

Hi all,We are using FMS 4.5 to provide f4m & m3u8 live streaming and VOD to user via http.How can i check the number of concurrent user connected to the live and VOD?Many thanks!

Hello. We are considering doing HTTP video streaming on our intranet. We have approximately 500 employees and would want to be able to stream approximately 10 - 50 one-way connections at one time. What version of Adobe Media Server would you recommend to support this?After reading more about streaming, we would probably want to support the progressive download method.

Dear All, We are currently using Media Server 3.5, I am wondering if it will be end of support very soon? If so, please advise the date?Many thanks. Best, Jay

I installed Adobe media Server free edition for test some capabilities. I have an issue when i try to log in the admin server by the browser. I can see the htm page in the browser but the login it is not correct. I have all the settings from conf ams.ini checked.I tried to test the port connection and i saw that 1935 and 1111 ports hace connection rejected when i telnet the machine. I configure iptables, save and restart on the centos machine, but the connection is still rejected. That is a VPS virtual private server, but i confused with the information that round for there.Have i set some parameter for start to use the ams on the centos 6 vps?Thank you very much.Enrique

What is the functionality I need to bootstrap a node in a group?  I want to find a random member to bootstrap with. But I don't know how to approach this. Anyhelp would be appreciated! Thanks.

THERE is NO solution to the fact that Flash Live Encoder can not recognize camtwist. I open up the camtwist first so my camera is all set up, then I put in my streaming code to the Encoder and everything works properly untill I can only see my Facetime built in Camera, when I should be seing more than one video device.. I want to record my desktop and stream it.. Is Camtwist not a good program? Any other suggestions or solutions!? Please LET ME KNOW QUICK! FIX FLME..... Thanks. (Yes I have the newest version)- Morgan

I encountered a peculiar issue with FMIS 4.5 that you may know how to resolve.As you know it is possible to configure RTMP VoD caching with FMIS in Vhost.xml config file when a node is configured as a proxy:<CacheDir enabled="true" useAppName="false">        <Path>/tmp/</Path>        <MaxSize>10</MaxSize></CacheDir>In this folder FMIS creates "buckets" (i.e. directories) with chunks of data, as it’s clearly stated in FMIS documentation.Is there _any_ way to modify this behavior?What I need exactly is a way to flatten this structure, or even add a prefix:/cache/app_name/bucket/chunk  --> /cache/app_name=bucket=chunk/cache/app_name/bucket/chunk  --> /cache/prefix=app_name=bucket=chunkAny information would be highly appreciated.Thank you.An extract from documentation regarding caching:Streams that are played via an edge server can optionally be cached on that edge serv

I am creating flex mobile application , that allows people to connect using a android camera and microphone,then recording video from android camera to Flash Media Server(FMS) 5 starter using adobe flex but when I play the recorded live video from FMS it's missing some frames. I have set the camera.fps to 30 but when I trace out the currentFPS for camera  30 and  netStream's currentFPS  returns low value, usually falls between 2 and 5 (high 1280X720),15 and 20(medium 640x480),25 and 30(low 320X240).where netStream is the object of the flash.net.NetStream class

I just purchased a Mac Pro Book and install adobe's FMLE app.  It does not recognize (DETECT) the Built in camera.  It works with an external camera.  And I have verified that the isight does work with the installed apps, Facetime and Iphoto.  Any suggestions?

Is it possible to store the username and password for an Adobe Media Server authentication plugin in the Porfile.xml file used by the Live Media Encoder?Alternatively is it possible to pass the login details as parameters in the stream name?

          We are using the FMS 4.0 streaming , I use Flash Media encoder to push to Livestream, but our video  hang sometime, and need to refresh the video. how to troubleshoot the live video hang issues, please help me. Thanks.

Hi,I have an application in which we use application.onDisconnect when a user logs out. In all browsers, we can see in the FMS admin console that the user has indeed been disconnected, except when the user uses Chrome. It can take minutes before the application.onDisconnect is fired.Known issue? Any work around?Thank you

FMS 4.5 on centOS 6.2Issue - error in stream either encoder issue or packet loss (rtmp sent to server to livepkgr HTTP streaming out, using f4m for flash machines and m3u8 for iOS) causes FMS to ramp up memory until 100%usage causing the server to crash.  why is this happening????? need help pronto! Thanks!

We are running FMS 4.5.7 with standard livepkgr application for live RTMP and HLS streaming (HDS module disabled). For some reason after about 30 minutes httpd process starts using more and more system memory and in about a minute or so it crashes the server because it drains memory completely. It doesn't matter how many users are connected to the stream. What I noticed is that if there is no HLS users (or HLS is disabled) everything is fine, however it is enough to connect at least one HLS user to the server after 30 minutes and the memory usage starts rising. If the user connects into 0-30 minute window it works.I have tried to play with stream recording options in Event.xml for that stream but it didn't help. I have tried to record into one file and into segments.Our server has 32GB of RAM.We have modified Apache configuration file to Sandbox HLS streams at instance level, but it should not be a problem, shouldn't it?<Location /hls-live>    HLSHttpStreamingEnabl

With the AMS Standard license I'm curious about the following: How many viewers can watch our event if we configure the bitrate 195kbps?Maximum Connections/streams for Broadcasting different event at the same time?Does AMS Standard limit The bandwith for streaming?What is the maximum connections you can have between ALL streams?Thank you in advance
