I am new to this Adobe Media Server stuff, my question is:  Is there a way you can restrict access to viewing a live video stream stricting by a specific IP address.  I see where you can block domains and stuff like that, only specific individual IP addresses are allowed to see the stream--thank you all for any assistance.

    You may write Auth plug-in .. Here is more help:

    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flashmediaserver/3.0/hpdocs/help.html?content=01_adaptors_19.html

    FMS comes with the default sample auth plug-in in samples\plugins\auth folder..

    You need to set the bAuthorisation flag in the sample code on E_PLAY event.. When you get E_PLAY event, you may check for the client.ip .. if it matches what you want.. you may set bAuthorised to true else false..

    Once done, build the plug-in..and deply .so or .dll in the modules/auth folder ..

    Restart the FMS and your done..

    The Adobe plug-in only works for the Adobe Live Encoder, a person can use another Encoder and connect and stream live unauthorized content correct?

    Please let me know, I am still facing this same security hole.

    thanks

    When you set the Auth_plugin and set the username & password no matter what encoder they use if they dont provide the username and password they wont be able to connect.
