Question

It doesn't allow flash clients to make stream's screenshot (with BitmapData.draw)

Hello,

I got serious issue while using adobe flash media server (I have media server streaming license). It doesn't allow flash clients to make stream's screenshot (with BitmapData.draw) because this is restricted from server side by default. I found that this trouble can be resolved my updating main.asc file but it seems like replacing main.far with mine main.asc causing error. Could you please help me with resolving this issue because it's extremely important  to allow this screens making for user.

I used CentOS 5.3 and FMS 4.0.1 r2009 (instaled in /opt/adobe/fms include Apache 2.2). All video is stored in a directory  /opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/media and I put the main.asc file in the directory /opt/adobe/fms/applications/vod/ from the directory  /opt/adobe/fms/samples/applications/vod.

    Before i dwell further into this - can you let me know which Server edition are you using - Streaming Or Interactive? You can check this via Admin Console,

    Admin Console -> Manage Servers -> License tab (you should see which edition you are using)

    I think that in case you won't be able to do anything on server-side script. The way you would have to go is Access Plug-in way - you would have to create access adaptor which would set videoSampleAccess to directory you want and also set videoSampleAccessLock to true so that server-side script does not override it.
