Hello everybody,i am trying to improve the conditional access procedure for our VOD service and i can't find any way howto get the VOD filepath requested by the client inside server side action script application (and use it to apply the business rules).Taking an example, here is what i need:- client is requesting service rtmpe://fms.vodservice.com/vodapp for file mp4:/vodlocation/my_requested_file.mp4- inside main.asc, prefferably in application.onConnect i would like to use the requested filepath "mp4:/vodlocation/my_requested_file.mp4" asinput for conditional access procedure.Is this possible ? And how ?Thank you in advance!

I would like to write a server side actionscript application that secures individual files.  It seems like there is a chance to accept or deny a connection during the onConnection function, but I don't see a place to accept or deny a play request on a particular file.Is this available in server side actionscript?

Hi, I have a server side actionscript application working for RTMP, and I would like to reuse this code for HTTP connections.Is this possible?

Hi,I have built an OSMF player that allows users to seek to where they were when resuming, but also to scrub back to the beginning.EG: A stream is 1 minute long.User starts play at 25 seconds.User can scrub back to 5 seconds or forward to 55 seconds.This works perfectly with RTMP - TimeTrait reports correctly and video displays correctly.EG: Start at 25 seconds, TimeTrait reports: duration = 60, current position = 25 and displaying video is 25.Seek to 5 seconds rewinds to current duration = 60, position = 5, displaying video is 5.But...With HTTP streams...Start at 25 seconds. TimeTrait reports: duration = 60, current position = 25 and displaying video is 50.Seek to 5 seconds rewinds to before the start of the stream and gives me a media complete... end of stream.Start at 30 seconds, TimeTrait reports duration = 60, current position = 30 and displaying video is 60 so gives me a media complete... end of stream.It is pretty clear that what is happening is that HTTP stream seeking is reset

We are using livepkgr to capture audio with AMS Standard running on a linux server. When we close an audio capture session with:   nsPublish.attachAudio(null);   nsPublish.close();it takes some time for the server to finish writing all the captured audio to an .FLV file. My question is how to detect the completion of this process. This is important to know because we want to move the FLV file to a more permanent storage as soon as it is complete.Thank you very much!

Am I able to import Mp3 files with this tool?

I've found documentation on line that suggests it is possible to set up a Hot Failover version of Adobe Media Server in a Disaster Recovery Environment.  It seems there might be a fee involved to make this happen.  Can anyone help me with the process to make hot failover a reality?

Hi AMG community,Recently I read in http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/legal/licenses-terms/pdf/AdobeMediaServer_5.0.pdf, that"there is a limitation of twenty five (25) "Concurrent Connections" when using SIP;"1) What does "Concurrent Connections" means above?2) Is it possible for 1000 AMS application instances to concurrently connect to AMG leg service?  What is the limit and is it configurable?3) How many concurrent audio/video streams can a leg hold?Thanks,Sahil.

Hello,I have developed a video transmission and viewing application . I am facing a problem of one way video latency of about 6 seconds.Adobe says that the latency can be reduced to about 3 seconds one way. I have set up the buffertime for transmitter about 3 seconds.Please can  anyone suggest me how to reduce the latency from 6 seconds to about 3 seconds ??I have no issues regarding the bandwidth , but can anyone suggest the proper optimization technique for CPU and memory usage .What should be the ideal configuration for minimum latency.  Currently my audio and video  transmission one way is 6 sec and hence 2 way for both is 12 -14 sec.Kindly guide me how to resolve the problem.Thanks,Chinmay Chitale

We just migrated our service to FMS 4.5.  Since our new server is in production, we started having the following error message in the core.log files:The FLV segment cache is fullThere is very little information about this problem on the web.  The only information found is to increase the value of parameter SERVER.FLVCACHE_MAXSIZE in the fms.ini file.  We tried this:SERVER.FLVCACHE_MAXSIZE=2000Increased the cache size only delayed the problem from a few hours to 1 day.  It seems that FMS 4.5 is filling up the cache without cleaning anything.  Note that we are doing a very high number of video recordings.  The only way to solve the issue is to restart the FMS service.One week ago, we were running FMS 3.5.7 on Windows 2003 and we never had this issue.  FMS was running with 500Mb of cache and was working fine for years.  This bugs has appeared since we moved to the FMS 4.5 on a Windows 2008 server.Coincidentally, Adobe released the 4.5.3 patch that i

Hey everybody,First time posting so take it easy on me if I step out of boundaries or thread protocol... no malicious intention or laziness intended.  I'm banging my head against the wall on this.Running the default install of Adobe Media Server 5 Standard on a Windows Server 2008 box.  We've been streaming VOD fine using Flash (.flv) over rtmp for years.  Our VOD storage location is a large SAN connected to the server via fiber and mounted permanently as E:\  The content streams fine.  BTW:  We chose the SAN location when we ran out of local storage on the server itself.  I moved all of the VOD content to the SAN.    I specified virtual directory mapping to E:\media in the Application.xml file and everything is great.Skip ahead to today, we want to stream .mp4 over HTTP instead of .flv over RTMP.  I've searched and searched for the correct location and proper syntax to create a virtual directory mapping in httpd.conf in the Apache

Hi there,Is it possible to have my old FMS 3.5 on the same server as I have Wowza 3.6 installed?The server is windows Server 2012 R2.I have installed the FMS, but it does not start up after installation, and the bat-files cannot start/stop the service either. It doesn't make a difference if I go to Services to start them up manually, the sample files still doesn't work.Any suggestions?Thanks in advanceHC

Dear support staff,Can AMS 5.x co-exist with FMS 4.5 on the same server?Because i need to keep FMS 4.5 for some demo purpose but also need to test AMS for further planning reference.Thanks.

Adobe Media Server 5.0.3 * LoadVars classCan you use this LoadVars class to send a HTTP POST with form data, so as to upload content to Amazon Web Services S3?If not, is there any other way you can do this with the scripting API?

I see that Adobe provides a WebService class to use with Server-Side ActionScript for consuming SOAP services.  I'd like to perform more basic HTTP calls.  It looks like this is potentially possible using XML.send(), but this is limited to POST and sending XML only.Is there a generic way to make HTTP calls?  I tried using XmlHttpRequest but it appears this isn't included with FMS.

Why not enter the Flash Media Playback setup website？My Live & Vod Flash Service can't run.Is Flash Media Playback termination of services?

How can I upload a recorded video file from Adobe FMS running on Amazon EC2 to Amazon S3 bucket after the file is created from RTMP stream?I can't mount an S3 bucket with a write access, since "It is not technically possible to record files to the S3 bucket". http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/amazonec2/WS6fc2df2b6d2ce2431afba23c12c3967d3ca-7ff1.html#WS0432746db30523c21e63e3d12c9b337c0c-8000I can't use Amazon CloudFront for streaming, since it does not support custom origins with Streaming distributions.Currently I have one FMS running on a Amazon EC2 (Adobe AMI) instance with EBS to store the content and the application is on another Amazon EC2 instance.The whole idea is to use Amazon Elastic Load Balancing and CloudFront. FMS would be used only for creating the user contributed video content from RTMP stream.I'm hoping there are others who have solved this issue.

With a recently acquired AMS 5 Professional we have had good results encoding video to it using a Teradek Vidiu hardware box.The only limitation encountered with this Vidiu device is that it does not provide multiple bit rates out of it. As a result we need to select the lowest common denominator that we are confident our viewers will be able to consume.Is anyone using a similar form factor product for encoding that provides for multiple bit rates? I'm hoping to stay within $2000 to $3000 price range.For portability reasons not interested in the Flash Media Encoder right now.Thanks.

'd like to take a file on an Adobe Media Server and upload it to S3 preferably by using the Server-Side Actionscript API.I've found that the LoadVars class can do HTTP requests, to some extent.The LoadVars.send() says:"All enumerable variables in the myLoadVars object are concatenated into a string that is posted to the URL by using the HTTP POST method."I'm not sure of what, exactly, this means, or where it puts this string, but I'm guessing it inserts it into the url as a querystring. I don't think S3 accepts objects like this.Is it possible to accomplish what I want to do with the server-side scripting language?The most important thing, besides getting the file on S3, is to get some sort of a notification that it's done so that I can tell my Flash client that it has been uploaded. This means that the API needs to be be aware of, or discover that the file has been uploaded.I'm experimenting with this: var lv = new LoadVars(); lv.onHTTPStatus = function(httpStatus) { this.httpStatus

Hi,I am looking for some recommendation and guidance on how to ban AMS from using SSlV3 in with RTMPS clients. I know about that there's a configuration in Adaptor.xml called"SSLCipherSuite" which should be able to somehow prevent a specific protocol, but the Adobe documentation recommends contacting with Adobe before changing that configuration.So I was wondering if Adobe has any official recommendation to prevent RTMPS client from using SSLV3. Could someone please point me to the right direction?Thanks-Irtiza
