It's easy to do on publishing clients, just use:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/beta/reference/actionscript/3/flash/net/NetStream.html#videoReliableHow do we do it on the FMS? It doesn't appear to be possible according to these docs:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/ssaslr/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d11a11aff5ba-7d13SSASLR.htmlWhat is the default for the FMS for the audioReliable, dataReliable and videoReliable properties?

I working on a project where multiple camera sources need to viewed at once during the entire course of the stream.  Is this a possibility for FMS 4.5?  If not, are there any other solutions out there that can accomplish this?Thanks,ascottrosenthal

We are making an application that is basically serving students so as expected most of the clients who access are the students who are accessing behind the university firewalls. We have some issues with the RTMPT (Tunnel RTMP over Port 80) at many places. May be there are some issues with the respective firewalls of those places. Therefore out management has decided to switch to Live HTTP as that is reported to be working fine at all these places which has some issues with RTMPTHowever one of the issues that we are facing is that that we unable to monitor number of LIVE streams or Number of Clients (Students) who are connected to our stream?Is there any workaround to measure how many users are online without the involvement of RTMP/RTMPT protocols?

Hi folks!Here's one that baffles me... I broadcast a video stream from Flash Live Encoder, it all works great on the web when I have MP3 audio selected in the settings. But when I watch the HLS stream on iPhone, I have the video but no audio. Adobe's documentation says we need to select AAC audio in the Live Encoder settings, but when I do so, I end up with no video and no audio, on both the web and iPhone.Any advice on this??Thankssv

I am looking for documentation on best practices for setting up an FMIS server (platform recommendations, etc).  One specific question I have is whether Adobe recommends for or against using Microsoft virtualization technology (virtual servers).

     Why is it that your Players no longer Support either the XP, or Vista Operating Systems? There are a number of Websites on the Internet that use your Flash Player and Shockwave. I really don't want to have to be Shanghaied into Upgrading to the latest Windows Operating System.                                                                          quilcene789

We'v been trying to set up a protected vod stream pRTMP (4.5.2) following the official directions presented here:http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSa8864cc5538a7459-62090543133c7eb00c7-8000.html#WSa8864cc5538a7459f964f76133cc300593-7fffAnd it seems that the pRTMP does not kick inas the server is serving media to both player 10 and 11,which is weird since pRTMP should work only on flash player 11?how can i know that pRTMP is working actually? the documentation for it is VERY poor, 1.5 pagesand no client api or any console info what so ever.if protected content is played on normal players feedingfrom VOD, then it means the p inside RTMP is not working, right?otherwise the content should be block for clients running low flashplayer version,- could this be because we are using the common-key.binwhich is provided by default? - do we need to configure any certificated for pRTMP other then provided in the default installation?- does swf verification need be enabled? (yes
