Currently, We are engaging in realtime streaming service with FMS4.

However, Comparing with the unreal streaming server, FMS4’s delaying time is bit longer according to the testing results.

So, Could you please provide me any setting methods or relevant manual for configuration to minimize the delaying time?

Thanks for your support.

best regards,

    Hi,

    Are you using FMS 4 for serving live streams or on demand video(recorded content)?

    Could you please elaborate a little bit more?

    Hi,

    I use FMS 3.5 and i have same problem.....the delay of live video from the studio to clients is big, 10 seconds if i restart the server. After one day of staying on, the delay reaches 1 minute or 2.

    The FMS is connected to 1 Gibabyte internet fiber, and the stream is VP6, 500kbps video and 128kbps audio, 720x576 resolution. Server Quad 3.0Ghz, 4 Gb Ram.

    Please help me to minimize the delay. What i must write in application.xml from live folder?????? Is there a command.

    I don't want to make buffer, i want the clients to receive live stream, if the stream is buffering i want to play it jumping that sequence, to maintain the live aspect,not to delay it if the clients doesn't have a good internet conection.

    Let's suppose i have 1 FMS, 1 Media Encoder, and 2 computers with flash player on the same Switch ( Local area Network). I've made some tests and the delay i get is minimum 5 seconds.   How can i reduce it????    Ping value to server is 1ms!

    Please help me!

    Thank's
