Im using fms 4.5(windows machine) for a live video streaming application. The application is done in flex 3 and it is about capturing a camera input in the presenter side (windows machine ) and the live video will be streamed to the viewer using the fms. There is no problem if the viewer is using windows machine. But if the viewer is using ipad the video is not dispalying as it wont support flash player. Is there any way to stream a live video from fms 4.5(windows machine) to ipad device?

Thanks in advance,

Aras

    Yes.. You can use Http live streaming in FMS.. Go through http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSd391de4d9c7bd609-52e437a812a3725dfa0-8000.html ..

    But since you are using a flex application, it may not have a right audio codec support to capture the video. Playing video on ipad requires the H264+AAC. You will have to capture video into H264 format from your application.

    Thanks Nitin for your reply.I successfully done live video streaming from fms 4.5 to ipad device. But there is one more issue as the streaming from fms to ipad seems to have a delay of 8 -10 seconds. Should i change any codings or server configurations. Is there any solution to overcome the streaming delay issue?

    The 8 - 10 seconds delay is common for all streaming videos form fms to ipad or is it possible to reduce the streaming delay to 2 or 3 seconds?

    Also, is it possible to do live video streaming from fms server to android device?
