Hi Everyone,
I am new to FMS and thought that this would be the best place to start with some questions I have.

1.How do I connect to the Admin Console through a static ip remotely as I will not have access to the machine locally?
2.I want to stream live audio and do audio on demand, how do I do this?
3.How to I embed a music player in a webpage that can stream live audio or the audio on demand?

Thanks in advance

Rocky

    1.How do I connect to the Admin Console through a static ip remotely as I will not have access to the machine locally?

    Admin console is just an swf application, so you either can host it and access it via your web server or you can just copy the application at your end(locally on your machine). Now how do you use it - its simple - just enter your FMS Server address and admin credentials and you should be logged in console. (only thing you need to make sure that port 1111 is open and is not blocked - however we recommend that you don't open the port 1111 and access to admin server should be only made within your firewall)

    2.I want to stream live audio and do audio on demand, how do I do this?

    Again its very simple:-

    For live, just publish audio only content using any publisher like FMLE to "live" application. Subscribe to stream published using "live" mode i.e. ns.play("filename",-1,-1,true) : -1 signifies live mode

    For VOD, just place your audio only content in VOD application. Subscribe to audio file using "recorded" mode i.e. ns.play("filename",0,-1,true) : 0 signifies recorded mode of play

    3.How to I embed a music player in a webpage that can stream live audio or the audio on demand?

    Using <EMBED> tag you can embed your own player inside the html page.
