NetStream.Publish.BadName

Is there a setting I can change so my FME tries to connect after a longer period? As it seems this occurs when FME disconnects from my FMS and then tries to reconnect however on the FMS it still believes FME is connected and so returns the 'Bad Name' erorr.

Ideally I would like FME to keep trying to reconnect and publish the stream.

    Please do post here: http://forums.adobe.com/community/flash/flash_media_live_encoder?view=discussions - if we can configure the timer value to increase the time period of retry.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your interest on FME and FMS.

    FMLE tries and reconnects as long as it is connected. For example, when the server is down (or restarting), all the time till it is up, FMLE tries to reconnect, infinitely.

    But, this is different from , when the connection is still on, and the streams are getting dropped or disconnected. In this case, there cannot be any method to retry the same name for BadName not to appear.

    Even this behavior is specific to the server side scripts that we write, are you using the default live app ? This app has the check for streams with same name. If you have a blank application, i do not expect this would be much of a problem.

    Hope the information is useful.

    Thank you !
