Question

LCCS functionality with flash media server 4

Hi,

I'm now using the LCCS account in my application to create p2p audio/video connections and screen sharing. Audio/video streaming is working well. However screen sharing uses RTMP protocol which means that all the data goes through the server. Due to network speed (and big distance from user1 -> LCCS server -> user2) screen sharing isn't very enjoyable and efficient because of delays. Now I wonder how to implement my own Flash Server, that users can authenticate to, publish p2p streams, and share their screens via my private server. I Assume that I need Flash Media Server 4 Enterprise (Am I wrong? Maybe some lower version applies), but what next. I completely don't know how to bite it. How to implement connecting/authenticating/routing/making connections to my own server?

Best Regards

Peter.

    What is your use case which you trying to address - you want something which needs to be tied with Livecycle or you need independent video solution. And if its latter - what all you need in your video solution - if you want p2p in your independent video solution which is based on flash - then you will have to go for Enterprise edition.

    Thank for your reply,

    I need p2p video/audio streaming, p2p message sending, and maybe video streaming (from server). I'm aware that I need Enterprise edition of FMS, but the vanilla install of FMS (developer edition) does not come with much documentation/tutorials on implementing p2p connections.
