Question

RTMP streams over RTMFP NetConnection

Hi,

Let's say user A connected to the FMS server with an RTMFP NetConnection, and user B connected to the server with an RTMP connection.

If I want to connect them together, would it be better if I also connect A to an RTMP NetConnection to the server?

    How are you thinking to connect them together?

    Hi Amit,

    Right now on my application, some people connect to the server with an RTMFP connection, and some with an RTMP connection.

    If A is connected to the server with RTMFP, and B with RTMP, then if I connect them together (video/audio streams), it will be an RTMP connection.

    It works well, but we don't create an RTMP connection to the server for A, the RTMFP seems to work, but I'm wondering if it can bring issue, because some people told me that A would also need an RTMP nc to the server but it doesn't seem to be true... Could it cause any error or make anything go wrong?

    Thanks

    an RTMFP NetConnection can do everything an RTMP one can do, plus more.  what you're doing should work just fine.

    client A can also take advantage of some RTMFP modes (like partial reliability) in some circumstances, which can reduce the latency with the communication to B, even though B is connected via RTMP.
