Question
User Auth. for Live Streaming with Media Encoder 2.5 and FMSS
Hi,
i am currently thinking of buying the Flash Media STREAMING Server (~995 $) and in order to see if this is the right choice, i also take a look at the Wowza Media Server for comparison.
I want to support Live Streaming from Events with Flash Media Encoder 2.5 and for this i'll need a user authentification for giving access to special publishing Users only. Wowza Media Server supports a User Authentification by parsing the connecting URL, witch is delivered by the Media Encoder on starting a Connection, and therefor grants or denies access to the publishing function. Only Users with the right Access Persmissions, which is written trough a password and the onPublish Comand in the url, can publish Live Streams. Everyone can watch the Live Stream, if no restriction to the onConnect Command was made.
The Problem in this case is, i will need seperate Application folders for every user who should be able to start a live stream. This would be a horrible effort...

Is there a similar way to support authorisation for starting publishing a LiveStream to the Flash Media Streaming Server, or do i need the Flash Media Interactive Server?
How can i restrict access to users, who should not be able to start a live stream on my FMSS?
Thx for your help,
Tobi
