Question

problem with rtmpe VOD using OSMF

I am using osmf1.0 and am trying to connect to a server to do multibitratestreaming from a level3 FMS instance 3.5. The protocols osmf are rtmpe and rtmpte with 3 different ports 1935,443,80. All in all creating 6 different connections. It then goes and tries to connect to either of these connections asynchoneously (50ms separation between each attempt) which means a later attempt can succeed before an earlier one. The device I am using is an htc mobile running on android (user agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 3_0 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/528.18 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile/7A341 Safari/528.16).

The problem

Typically, all attempts will fail (NetConnection.Connect.Failed) but occationally one does succeed but only over rtmpte but no specific port.


In contrast, with Akamai it does work every single time.

I am fairly certain this is something level3 has caused but was wondering if anyone else knows what might cause this or maybe has had similar issues (and hopefully resolved it).

Please do let me know.

    I have the same issue. Trying to connect using rtmpe but no joy. Haven't tried any other cdn though. Help Please!

    Hi,

    I have got a problem in using OSMF . I am trying to play a live stream using SMIL file, url is:

    http://wowza.uk.commercialnetworkservices.net:1935/shelterisland/smil:shelterisland.smil/manifest.f4m

    The player starts playing the video, but when tries to switch to high bitrate the video seems freezed although i see video being loaded in console.

    Any suggestion will be a great help!!

    Thanks

    @Orco If it works with Akamai but not Level 3, it does sound like a Level 3 issue. Maybe someone else will chime in with a solution, though.

    @Johalkirat It looks like you're using Wowza, not Flash Media Server, so you'll probably have more success in the Wowza forum.

    Hope that helps,

    Jody
