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

    Which version of 3.5 are you on - have you upgraded to latest 3.5.4 - if not try it out and see if that solves your problem.

    You can also try disabling AggregateMessages - you can find the tag here - Application/StreamManager/Live/Queue (Application.xml) - see if setting it to false helps
