Question

Streaming from multiple servers

Hello,

I have a server in Israel with Flash Streaming server installed.
If I'll buy another server and host it in the US, what do I need to do in order to broadcast from it also.

1. Do I have to broadcast twice from the source or can I broadcast to one server and it will pass the stream to the other?
2. Do I need to purchase another FMS license?


Thanks.

    Hello again,

    First, thank you for all of your responses.

    Second, I'm looking for someone that will build our needed system.

    Anyone who would like to send us a price proposal is more than welcomed to PM me here  [or any other way] for more details.

    Thanks,

    Liad.

    Hey,
    thanks for your answers.

    Assuming I'll buy FMIS, where can I get some info about programming the needed apps for our system [FMS+AS]?

    You said you have Flash Streaming Server - do you mean FMSS. If yes, I am sorry you will have to broadcast to both servers from your source. There is no way you can republish from server itself as you have no control to do that on FMSS - you cant write your own apps and also cant modify live and vod apps. Now if you meant FMIS, then there are two ways you can achieve it:
    1. Like how JayCharles suggested, you can use remote play and play stream from your US server.
    2. Better way would be to use Multi-point publish, once you get stream published at your Isreal server, just get hold of it in application.onPublish handler and use new NetStream class on Server-side to republish it to our US server. However note that Multi-point publish is available only from FMS 3.0 release.

    1. You don't need to publish twice. You can set up an application on the server in the US, and have that application subscribe to the stream on the server in Israel (or vice versa).

    2. Yes. you need to purchase an FMS license for each server in order to be in compliance with the EULA.
