Question

Live Stream changing color of stream if already connected?

Hi Guys,

I would like to implement in my videochat Application on my FMS Server the following situation:

3 Users are currently streaming their audio and video to the FMS. They can get every stream niceley from the server.

The feature I would like to implement and don't know if FMS does support this is:

If User1 is in converstion with User2 (in conversation means both see each other with audio) and now User3 wants to receive User2's stream, I want to have it send by the server not colorful but in greyscale. Is there any way that FMS is able to do this for a specific stream for users?

I was thinking of a type of requesting, and server knows wether stream is already in conversation or not. If this is true, FMS should send every other user requesting one of those streams in conversation with grey colors.

May this be possible with FMS?

    You won't be able to change the colours of the video from FMS, that has to be done on the client receiving end within the Flash Player. Use a filter for that I think.

    Thank you for this answer.

    I am developing the client side with air for mobile devices. Can you give me a hint for filters or encoding which I can integrate to my project on the client side to be able to do this? Won't be the problem for the device in general because it's only task is this application so I don't mind wasting some cpu load for prototype ;-)

    well what are your target mobile devices? Because Android is the only platform that will run flash natively without unlocking the phone and thats only for Android phones with a 1ghz or greater processor. Even then you have to build the client side application very carefully there are some add-ons for CS5 to help make this easier. You may alos create and AIR application that can connect to FMS although I can't say for sure I don't have alot of exsperience with this although I have plugin/addon for CS5 that does this. And if I remember right CS5.5 is built more specifically for mobile devices and has a HTML5 converter or somthing but HTML5 is not compatible with FMS yet. Keeping all this in mind Adobe is comeing out with a FMS beta version called Tigercat wich has much greater support for mobile devices. I wonder if this will include html5 somehow? I'll quit dirtying the post with stuff that is exciting to me. Good Day!
