Question

Performance tuning - HTML5 playback

Hi,

I am in a typical scenario.  I have hosted FMS 4.5 on Machine M1, and loading the media assets from Machine M2. The application folder containing the launch file is also on M2. I made appropriate changes in fms.ini, Application.xml and other needed places to load the media.

Now, media playback does work using this scenario.  But only an mp4 file of duration ~30 sec loads fine.  Any file greater than 30sec takes ages to load.  Also, I am the only user accessing this application.  There are not even 2 concurrent users.  Both the machines are still on Intranet.  We haven't yet exposed the setup for public access. I don't understand, what is making the media loading so slow.

How can I fine tune FMS Apache, or any other settings to make the file loading faster.

Thanks,

Komal

Hi,

Any clue on this, from anyone please? This is critical, please help here.

Just to re-iterate, an mp4 file of ~600 KB (which is ~30 sec) plays fine. But bigger files do not load in HTML5 <video> tag, using FMS Apache 2.2

thanks,

Are you using Progressive download? Can you do onething - just make you FMS Apache listen to port 80 and remove 80 from FMS ports and try your scenario and see if you see any difference.
