Hi:

Anybody knows how to get the encoding of a media (PAL, NTSC)? (I´m using Adobe flash media server)

Thanks

Correct answer SE_0208

Would be possible getting frame rate of the video? I need to know if a video has framerate 24 or 29,97 (or know if it´s PAL or NTSC)

Thanks

I dont know whether you can know whether particular stream uses NTSC or PAL - i suppose its responbility of encoder to embed that data into metadata of stream. However i know most encoder would embed framerate in metadata of stream - i know FMLE does that. You just need to get hold of metadata object of stream file in onMetadata and extract value for this "videoframerate" property.

You want to know it runtime or something - something like via code or metadata or any offline tool would do for you?

I will explain my question. I´m doing a web player using flex. It´s a simple player and I´m showing the timecode of the media. I get this timecode using the method nsPlay.timetedial (var nsPlay:NetStream). This method give me the timecode in seconds but I have another method to tranform (HH:MM:SS:FF). In this transformation I need the encoding to calculate the frames for using it (24, 30, ...).

Thanks

Sorry for my english.
