Question

Returning Values from Admin API / Connecting to FMS without Flash?

Hi,

I am trying to connect to an FMS application without flash (no SWF). To the best of my knowledge,the only way to accomplish this is thru the admin APIs, is that correct?

If so, how do I return meaningful values from the admin API? I can call functions and stuff using the broadcastMsg API call but I can't seem to get back any values. All that is returned is a useless "Success" type message. I have tried using shared objects and the getSharedObjects API call, but the call doesn't return any info on the contents of the shared objects, just their names and some info on their persistance.

Can anyone help me out? Is there another way of accomplishing my goal outside of the Admin API? If not how do I return meaningful variables from the Admin API? Is there a way to hack or extend the admin API? The documentation is very scant, please help!

Thanks

DW

    Hi,

    You can use Admin APIs monitor and administer Flash Media Server . Can you explain your requirement as to what you want to achieve, I mean what values you want to recieve from Admin APIs, so that I can help you use the correct API.

    Thanks,
