FMS4: localhost or localhost:8134 the same:

For the Stream Video (RTMP) I cannot connect; but using the PLAY VIDEO(HTTP) is fine.

RTMP show: "we are unable to connect to the content you've requested...."

Currently config enabled HTTP Proxy and allow all in/outbound connection in windows 7 firewall.

BTW, this is for the samples;  the "dynamic stream" and "interactive" are all fine.

Any idea?

Thanks!

    I installed FMS4 on my Windows 7 machine. And for me everything is working fine. Is it like just after completing the installation, when it opens index.html then sample play for rtmp is not working?

    Have you tried playing other videos using rtmp?

    Hi,

    Thanks for trying RTMP.


    For both the problems above, the following might be happening :

    1.Check the firewall settings, that might be blocking the incoming / outgoing rtmp traffic on non-localhost connections.

    2. check if the fms services are started. On windows 7, they wont be started after the installation is done automatically because of the privileges lock on Windows 7. You need to manually start them. Open a command prompt with admin privileges and run the following commands to start the processes :

    net start fms

    net start fmsadmin.

    After doing this, you should be able to make rtmp connections without any problem. Please let us know if that worked for you.

    Thank you !
