Hello All, This is my first project using Adobe Flash Media Services. I'm still learning but I find it all very fascinating. I am attempting to build a 1 to 1 video chat application.I want to distribute peers in a rtmfp group using a single server. I have created a groupspec and giving it sme properties.I understand peers add other peers in has neigbors in a group if they know the name of a grouspec however, I am unsure about the FMS introduction flow process to establish direct communication between random peers. In the API I want a user to click on a to generate a random user can  somebody show me the code how to do that?Thanks

We are using the dvrcast application.  I've modified application.onPublish() to call onStartRecord() on the stream object so that recording automatically starts immediately.  Correspondingly it calls onStopRecord() in application.onUnpublish().  Thre problem is the code looks like this:var strm = application.getStream(streamFullName, true);strm.publish(client);strm.onStartRecord();And similarly in the onUnpublish, it's also using application.getStream(streamFullName).The problem is when the network drops between the encoder and AMS.  I've modified ExDVRStream to ensure it will always record in append mode.  This should ensure that streams recover gracefully and recording picks up where it left off.  However, there seems to be some kind of race condition because I see onStartRecord() called in the log, followed immediately by onStopRecord().  I am guessing it's calling application.getStream() to clean up the old stream of the same name, and that's why

Hi,I'm testing AMS for live broadcasting with AMSCHECK. A Flash program published a video stream at around 400Kbps. Using a Flash-based viewer, the reproduced image was fine and the AMS administration console reported the out-going bit rate was about 400Kbps per viewer (normal). Then using AMSCHECK to receive the same stream, the AMS administration console reported it was 50Kbps (of course it should have been 400Kbps). Looking at access.00.log and calculating the average streaming bitrate from the 'duration' and 'sc-stream-bytes', they corresponded to the values reported by the monitor. And changing the source configuration and increasing the stream bitrate to about 1Mbps, again AMSCHECK seemed to receive only 50Kbps. For making our stress check meaningful, we need AMSCHECK receives all the data being broadcasted. Is there any way for AMSCHECK to receive all the steam in live broadcasting?Note that we used a modified 'livepkgr' as the application.Thanks,Yoichi

I've noticed a lot of clients and employers are requesting experience with Flash Media Server. I am a Mac owner and I would like to become familiar with Flash Media Server the problem is it is not available for Mac OS X. Will Flash Media Server be available soon for Mac?

Hi everyone,I'm having issues logging in to the administration console in AMS 5 for Amazon Web Services. I've modified the ams.ini file adding the line "SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD = mypasswd" and in Users.xml file I've commented out the "Password" and used a previous configuration line found in FMS 4.0 versions:<!-- Salted Password Hash for this vhost administrator. --><!-- <Password>Salted hash of the Password goes here</Password> --><Password encrypt="false">${SERVER.ADMIN_PASSWORD}</Password>After restarting the admin service, i perform a ping test but i get the following error:<result><level>error</level><code>NetConnection.Connect.Rejected</code><description>Admin user requires valid username and password.</description><timestamp>Mon 27 Aug 2012 11:06:10 AM EDT</timestamp></result>I've tried hardcoding the password, but with no luck. I've done some research on the salted has password, but I

If we are providing 1mbps streaming to a single user, than how many viewers can see the live streaming at once via Adobe Media Server 5 or 5.1 and at what mega pixels?

I am trying to make the incomingNetStream relay to a FMS (on another machine). The incomingNetStream is in a sample code that has an incoming and an outgoing stream. I want to publish the incomingNetStream to the AMS.The RTMP Url is not apparent, so I can't think of a way of how to accomplish this.I'm fairly new to Flex, and AMS so any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

i have a video chat application with multple webcams displayed on the screen upon connection to the application.when users select the chat option to auto-display the webcams on login, AMS disconnects the client a few seconds into the connection.the client only disconnects from AMS, and stays connected to other apps on the server such as mumble.for this particular application, i disabled Queueing and AggregateMessages, and set <OutChunkSize>512</OutChunkSize> to improve the smoothness of users' webcams.AMS 5.0.1 on CentOS 5.9 did not do this.what could have changed? any tips are greatly appreciated.thanks!

I'm using AMS 5.0.1 on AWS. I would like to create my own customized AMI - I would like to configure the 'stock' AMI to my liking and then create a new AMI from that customized server.I've tried some methods that I found to try to create a new AMI but I'm running into problems. It seems that I can't create a new paid AMI from and existing one.This is the error:Machine image ami-XXXXXXXX and kernel image aki-XXXXXXXX have incompatible product codes.I tried to inject the product code using;ec2-modify-image-attribute ami-XXXXXXXX --product-code XXXXXXXXbut got this error:Client.AuthFailure: Not authorized for image:ami-XXXXXXXThis is a critical issue for me, I need to be able to automatically create AMS instances within AWS. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. Another option would be to persuade Adobe to create some slightly modified AMI's for public use?

Hi,I need to check if a publishing point is active (in terms of live video data is available/being streamed) in order to display that status on a web page. It would be nice if this could be queried using javascript or php.Any thoughts?Many thanks in advance!

Can you install flash for me going thru my computer ? a.g.a@verizon.net

How can I push HLS Live streams from a cisco media encoder to Adobe Media Server.  The cisco does the encoding, fragmenting and manifest creation.  The Adobe server just needs to serve the files to the clients.

i need to know how to size a media server for 800-1200 user

Hello,I've installed FME and FMS. On the same system I can watch the stream via samplePlayer, but when I try view the stream from a different IP I get the right page with the player, but it displays this message: "All NetConnection attempts failed null"

I just installed AMS 5 on a Windows Amazon server, and am trying to view the live stream via web browser. Can't seem to get it working. I've followed the instructions that is shown here:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/adobemediaserver/devguide/WSd391de4d9c7bd609-52e437a812a3725dfa0-8000.2.3.htmlI can successfully connect using Adobe Encoder and am streaming to it (I can see network traffic coming into the server).When I view here: http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.html?src=http://...I get "Error #2048".Can someone spare a few minutes and help me along?Thanks!

We're having trouble compiling stats using FMS 4.5 because it appears as if c-client-id field in the logs is no longer unique on a per user/connection basis. As a matter of fact the same c-client-id stamps are being recorded for different users, from different countries, connecting to different vhosts on different days. As such our stats are completely off now. The c-client-id appeared to be unique in FMSS 3.5 and FMSS 4.0. Can someone from Adobe confirm this issue?We're running FMIS 4.5 on Linux (CentOS).Thank you.

I need to be able to add the encryption key to a live channel media object in our VMS. can I manually generate this and somehow use it in the livepkgr app to deliver the DRM'd hds-live stream?I know that the common-key.bin file + the contentID are used to generate the encryption keys by the packager, but I need the resulting key for our media object in the VMS.

Hi all, I'm quite new to FMS, I hope someone can help me solve this problem, thank you.I run a FMS 4.5 for a recording service. But some of our member cannot record. The recorded flv file was only 222 bytes. below is the different between successful case and failed case of recording.Success case: onstatus event of netstream after it publish, the server returned:   clientid: qAArABAA description: 1942829/1374303941188 is now published. code: NetStream.Publish.Start level: status  clientid: qAArABAA description: Recording 1942829/1374303941188. code: NetStream.Record.Start level: statusFailed case: onstatus event of netstream after it publish, the server returned only 1 message:    clientid: qAAsABAA description: 1800194/1374303943063 is now published. code: NetStream.Publish.Start level: statusOnce more thing is that only visitor from Google Chrome got this problem, cause the header of request of failed recording case always look like:    &nb

All of a sudden, my Adobe Media Encoder CS4 is only showing the lower half of the screen in Settings mode. This is how it encodes from the .wmv file to .avi. and is therefore corrupting the file. Does anyone know why this has happened?

Android does not support flash from OS 4 and above. Is there any solution/plugin available so that user can see the flash video streaming (Streaming is sent by Adobe Media server) in andoid devices?
