Adobe Media Server and Multiple Storage Drives

We are running Adobe Media Server 5.  We have had one disk location for all media files up until now, but we are outgrowing our storage and need to begin having multiple volumes. 
We need a way to specify that some files live on another drive.  We are at a college, and we want to have all of our nursing video on one volume by itself to free up disk space.
for example, we have always had everything in http:\\domain\vod\nursing or http:\\domain\vod\username.  We need to move http:\\domain\vod\nursing to e:\webroot\vod\nursing, but have everything else continue to work.  It's on the same server. 
We have been on the phone for hours with Adobe support and have gotten nowhere. 
We have tried adding a new application with the virtual directory set to e:\webroot\vod\nursing,
declaring variables in ams.ini, changing the httpd.conf file, etc.  We have not had any luck. 
Everything always points back to this document: 
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/configadmin/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2925 e64-7fc7.html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d119f2926bcf-7fea
We haven't had any luck with following those directions, and adobe support essentially told us they had never heard of this use case? 
Any advice would be helpful. 
Thanks!
Joni

I talked to our support team and asked them to coordinate with you....And setting up virtual directory should be easy stuff.

  • Timecode/TimeStamp in RTMP live streaming using Adobe Media Server and FMLE

    HI There,
    Am trying to stream a video on to Adobe media server(using RTMP) through FMLE and play it on my web site using JWPlayer. i could stream the video successfully, but know i want to get the timestamp/timecode on the stream. does Adobe media server and FMLE support this kind of use-case ? if not is there any other way to achieve the same. any comments/suggestion/pointers appreciated .
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards
    Deepak

    If you're talking about nonstop, continuous streaming, your subscribing client will need to close and reconnect the stream every couple of days, as the server will run out of timestamps for the stream.

  • Questions on the capabilities of the Adobe media server and system requirements

    Hello
    We need to send multiple video streams on different computers and screens in our organization. To do this, we need a dedicated server with the following functionality:
    - transmit up to ten (or even more) HD and FullHD streams simultaneously
    - manage playlists in real time without relaunching stream every time after adding items to the playlist
    - imposing of any text and video effects
    - use a variety of sources: a folder with pictures for the slideshow, video and audio files, video capture devices, video streaming from other resources
    Is Adobe media server suitable for our tasks?
    What are the system requirements (I do not mean minimum requierements)?
    If we buy adobe media server, will it be enough? Or we will have to buy additional software products to provide all the necessary functionality?
    Thank you.

    1 and 2 is possible
    3 is not
    4 AMS is not an encoder and does not encode or create streams.You have to use other software for that.Adobe FMLE is for live streaming...Use third part software like manycam(a virtual webcam on your machine) to generate video sources out of slide shows.

  • QTSS/Adobe Media Server and Hardware Optimization

    HI all,
    I am trying to make an informed choice between deploying either QTSS (free and on Mac) or Adobe Media Server (about $20,000 and on Linux). In our application we will have about 700 simultaneous connections to our service. About 400 of these users will be viewing one of four live video feeds (from presenters at an expo). The remaining users will hold one-to one video chats through our site. We have direct fiber bandwidth of 100megs and our video streams are held to 320x240 at 15fps. I have extensive Mac experience and currently use XServe for our other web service. I have three main questions.
    1) Does anyone have suggestions/experience on the use of QTSS instead of Adobe Media Server in this size application?
    2) If QTSS is used, how many servers and what configurations would you recommend for balancing this size workload?
    3) What load balancing hardware would be appropriate for this project if multiple servers are needed?
    I really appreciate any help that might be offered. Thanks

    The new auth plugin still doesn't work against Wirecast/FM 1.0 agents. The only way I was able to block these agents was through the main.asc file you put in your application. On the function application.onConnect insert this
    if( (p_client.agent.search("Wirecast")!=-1) || (p_client.agent.search("FM 1")!=-1) )
            trace (p_client.agent + " FM 1.0/Wirecast agent detected ...rejecting connection from "+p_client.ip);
            return false;
    How do you require WireCast agents to be forced to enter a password?
    Where/how do you put this action script, does anyone have any examples?

  • Adobe Media Server and the Authentication Add-In

    The Authentication Add-In (used to authenticate Adobe Live Media Encoders connecting to FMS) will not install with Adobe Media Server because it looks for Flash Media Server and does not recognise Adobe Media Server.
    Is there a workaround or a new version of the Authentication Add-In?

  • Proxy between Flash Media Live Encoder and Adobe Media Server

    ciao,
    I encode from a pc with Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder to a server with Adobe Media Server. And this configuration works well.
    The actual configuration is:
    1) computer A (es: 192.168.1.5 - gw 192.168.1.254) point to computer B
    with FMS url: rtmp://COMPUTER_B_WAN_IP/live and StreamName
    test?user=useruser&password=userpassword
    2) computer B (es: 210.22.11.134) with Adobe Media Server
    But now I need to encode from Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder (computer A) to a pc (computer P) and then redirect the rtmp stream to the Adobe Media Server (computer B). Those 3 computers have different lan configurations. If I use rtmpsuck (http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/) on computer P, can I use it like proxy to redirect the computer A rtmp flow to computer B?
    I suppose:
    1) computer A (es: 192.168.1.5 - gw 192.168.1.254) point to computer P with FMS url: rtmp://COMPUTER_P_WAN_IP/live and StreamName test?user=useruser&password=userpassword
    2) on computer P (es: 10.10.10.8 - gw 10.10.10.254) I install
    rtmpsuck, I open port 1935 on his firewall and I configure iptables
    like: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 1935 -j DNAT
    --to-destination COMPUTER_B_WAN_IP:1935
    3) on computer B I do nothing.
    Now I have 3 questions:
    1- Can it works?
    2- On computer P (the proxy) I must install rtmpsuck and rtmpsrv or I can install only rtmpsuck? I don't necessary need to record the stream
    3- Is there another way to do this? Is there another software to redirect the stream?
    Thankyou
    M.

    Please update us when FMLE OSX is deployed.  BTW, I get that the server market is dominated by LINUX/WINDOWS and this is a FMS add on. But, my shops creative workflow is Mac based for obvious reasons.  Encoding is part of our editing workflow and thus needs to be mac based.  Throw us a bone please.

  • How do I Host my Adobe Media server Online to friends and family?

      I got hamachi for now but when i get on laptop it connects to the site but said it cant connect to the Network to watch videos i added.
    When i installed the media server it did ask which ip to bind to and i chose hamachi as i want to test befor i put online but even when i did that i can only run my content on host pc and not client pc.   How do i change that and right now i am not able to portforward, Are there any work arounds for that?
    I dont get the instructions for the Documentation for setting ip's and access,   Can anyone help me?
    Almost forgot,   I am running Adobe Media server 5 but believe it is the Extended version, dont remember. Not sure if there are any differances between the two.

    Your only option is to install the version they provide thru the link I provided.  My only thought is to see if a search of the forums using the search option and the search terms "CS2 disk 2" yields any useful information...  what I found might prove helpful.  If not, try the search yourself for more possibilities.  It appears you need to get all of the files into the same folder before installing.  Here is a link to the discussion I found....

  • Possible to install and configure adobe media server with existing apache

    Hi All,
    I am wondering if you know whether or not there would be an issue installing AMS Pro on a server that is already running a Moodle installation (2.4) with Apache 2.2?
    If I opt to install AMS without installing apache, can I manually configure the exiting apache to enable iOS support, etc?
    Any information is most appreciated!
    Cheers,

    You better post this question in the correct forum: Adobe Media Server maybe the moderator can move it.

    If you're using IIS and not Apache, try adding the MIME type into IIS.
    File name extension:    .f4m
    MIME Type:    application/f4m+xml
    This should allow the multiple bitrate RTMP option to work. The other four options on the admin console screen require Apache to be installed.
