Question

One way live audio-video streaming

Hi

First of all I want to be honest that I am a beginner with FMS2, actually I must have missed much not using it so far. So, excuse me, I am sure you will find my problem very easy to solve.
Having a little experience with Flash I tried to do the following: I have 2 PC's in LAN. One of them has camera and microphone. I want to stream audio and video to the other computer - I only need 1-way live streaming audio-video connection.
I have read some docs about streaming with FMS2 but I couldn't find out which of the PC's should have FMS2 (and Web server) - the one with camera and microphone or the other. And if the camera and microphone are on the server how audio and viveo should be captured and streamed to the client?

I really need your help. Any idea would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

    Thank you friends!

    Actually I managed to sort out the problem. And the problem was that I had not used before FMS at all. After I have read more documentation I established the connection using 2 PC-s (one to publish and one to plaY) and the 3-rd for FMServer and Web Server.
    By the way there was a little confusion about local and network access of .swf files, but now it is okay.

    Now I have a new challenge - to record published stream to files, for example about 30 minutes long. I want to record and store all them continuously - having all the records for 3 days for example. I am not sure now how to do that but I am working on it.

    Anyway, thank you for your assistance!

    it doesnt matter whwere you have fms installed ... that only depends when you create your application ..
    If you have the server on the one that doesnt have a camera .. you will have to tell your application that you create for the one that has a camera .. to connect to your server .. ( protocol is RMTP so you will have "rmtp://192.168.1.1/applicfolder" )
    If you have the server on the one that has a camera .. you will just specify "rmtp://applicfolder" and that will just mean that is local ...
    Hope this helps ... if i wasnt right .. well i least i tryed :D

    Should be "rmtp:/applicfolder" for local resources. Note the single slash instead of the double slash after the ":'.
