Check out these FMS2 videos clips...this will help put things into perspective. This is a good starting point and should address some of your questions.

Hello Donavan,

Thanks, thanks... the video is very good. I need something simple. Imagine that i have some videos that i want to put in my site in order to other people see them by streming. The same thing that the you tube do. I don't know how to put this videos. What do i need? Where in my server i put the video? Have i to use .asc files necessarily? How do i create the flv movie and swf? Have i to put some especial parameter in order to comunicate to my server? Can you send me a example to me? The .swf, .asc and a movie in order to put in my server and see how this work?

Thanks Donavan,

I`m glad to see that there are people in the worl able to help the others,

Hello Mauricio -

There is probably several ways to do this, but being sort of new with FMS2 too, I'll give you the way that I'm currently using it. Both my Web server and FMS2 are on the same computer.

You FMS2 installation created a /fms/ directory.

for FLV files - /fms/applications/ and then I've created sub directories under here for each FLV file. So, for example, the full directory path for one of my FLV files /fms/applications/lemurs/streams/_definst_/lemurs.flv

The "main.asc" file needs to go here too - /fms/applications/lemurs/main.asc (for the example above).

for SWF files - put these on your Web server side.

When you make your SWF files you will reference your FLV 'source' (in 'parameters tab' in Flash) as "rtmp:/lemurs/lemurs.flv" - again, if your Web server and FMS2 is on the same computer. You can also do "rtmp://UR.IP.AD.RES/lemurs/lemurs.flv" - for example, "rtmp:/192.168.1.1/lemurs/lemurs.flv"

I hope this helps some.

Thanks Donavan,

But i'm a little confuse yet. When you said that i have to put flv files in the .../streams/_definst_/..., why this directory? It need to be this name necessarily? I need little aboout flash. I'm a system administrator. The only thing that i did was install the FMS in the company`s server. I don`t know how to create a application in order to see if all is running well. Do you have a msn or yahoo messenger? I would like to talk more with you. I think that you can help me!!

Thanks Donavan,

Mauricio Barreto
