This is probably a real newbie question but how do you get stats out of the media server? is it only available through the log files? any ideas?

Many thanks in advance

    Hi,

    Depends on what kind of stats you need. Apart from log files FMS provides you a host of Admin APIs which you can use to get the server statistics. You can find a description of Admin APIs in FMS documentation. In case you need data like when a particular stream was played, etc., you can use the access logs. You can also configure what events and what fields to log in Logger.xml present in FMS install folder/conf. You can always use a file parser to parse these logs and get the data out of it in let's say XML format. Please revert back for more clarifications.

    Thanks,

    Abhishek
