User ID in Flash Media Server log files?

We may be using Flash Media Server in an intranet only scenario. All users will be watching the videos from Windows boxes. Our users who are creating the videos want to track usage by user ID. Does the server log the client's user ID? Is that what c-client-id is? If c-client-id is used to store Windows user name do I need to turn on AD/windows authentication to get that info? I see that IP address is stored, but it would be simpler if the user Id were in the log file.

Hi,
c-client-id field denotes the unique client-id assigned by FMS to a connecting client. This id is valid from the time "connect" event is received in the access.00.log to the time "disconnect" event is received. It is not the Windows user-id.
You would have to track the usage based on the c-ip field.
Thanks

Why Flash Media Server

Hi All,
As it stands currently, I'm developing online teaching applications that faculty can use in their classes, as well as encoding and uploading videos to our Windows Servers. For database management, I'm coding server side scripts in PHP, and dumping everything into MySQL. Then embedding all the content into Moodle (which is hosted by a 3rd party).
I'm looking at a Flash Server Solution for a couple of reasons:
1) Delivering Streaming video instead of Progressive Download
2) Allowing instructors to encode and upload their own videos (similar to YouTube) without having to go through my office
3) Providing extra copyright security - in order to use some copyright videos, we have to ensure that only the students who are enrolled in specific classes can access the data. As it stands now, a smart student with the right URL can download anything we have up on our Windows servers.
Some Questions and concerns:
1) I don't know Cold Fusion. Will I have to rewrite all my scripts for that? Can Flash Media Server run PHP?
2) This is probably a really stupid one, but... Is Flash Server it's own platform, or does it have to run on a Windows or Linux box?
3) Does it need its own dedicated machine? Can you run a virtual server with Flash Server?
4) Which of the different flavors of Flash Server are best?
5) What kind of hardware specs are we looking at? We have 20,000 students and maybe a few thousand at any one time would have to access
Sorry about all the dumb questions. I'm mostly an app developer, but am in the position of having to make this decision, and then defend the decision if I decide to puruse a Flash server solution.
Thanks for your help.

Hi riquigley,
Following are quick answers on a few of your questions. Hopefully other folks will add their thoughts and also answer the questions I have skipped over.
4) Which of the different flavors of Flash Server are best?
-- FOR STRAIGHT VIDEO STREAMING USE Flash Media Streaming Server. THE PRICE POINT IS LOWER THAN Flash Media Interactive Server (aka FMIS. FMIS IS ONLY NEEDED FOR INTERACTIVE APPLICATIONS, E.G. MULTIUSER, CHAT, ETC.)
-- COMPARE EDITIONS PAGE HERE:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/compare/
2) ... does it have to run on a Windows or Linux box?
-- YES. FMS IS A SERVICE THAT RUNS ON AN OS. WINDOWS AND RED HAT LINUX ARE SUPPORT. FULL REQUIREMENTS HERE:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediastreaming/systemreqs/
3) Does it need its own dedicated machine? Can you run a virtual server with Flash Server?
-- DEDICATED MACHINE *NOT* REQUIRED.
-- HOSTED SOLUTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TOO. HOSTED SOLUTIONS MAY OFFER: A) BETTER QUALITY; B) LOWER TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP; C) QUICKER START TO LAUNCH.
-- SEE LIST OF HOSTING PARTNERS, AKA CDNs (Content Delivery Networks) HERE:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/fvss/
1) I don't know Cold Fusion. Will I have to rewrite all my scripts for that? Can Flash Media Server run PHP?
-- COLDFUSION NOT REQUIRED. EITHER PHP OR COLDFUSION CAN BE USED TO MANAGE METADATA (INCLUDING SQL DATABASE INTERACTION).
-- PHP AND COLDFUSION HANDLE ALL HTTP REQUESTS AND RETURN DYNAMICALLY GENERATED PAGES TO THE USERS' BROWSERS.
-- FLASH MEDIA SERVER HANDLES ALL RTMP REQUESTS. DYNAMICALLY GENERATED PAGES FROM PHP WILL INCLUDE THE RTMP URLs THAT THE FLASH/FLEX SWFs USE IN THE BROWSER TO REQUEST THE RTMP STREAMS FROM THE FLASH MEDIA SERVERS.

Asynchronous NetStream / Flash Media Server

Hello,
this is my first experience with audio streaming and I am also fairly new to FMS. I am very grateful for any help
In my application two or more people can talk to each other (for example like in Skype). I use NetStream objects for it, that means for x users = x netStream objects for each user (1 for publishing the own stream to Flash Media Server, x - 1 for playing the other users' streams from Flash Media Server).
SOMETIMES they suddenly become asynchronous. That means: suddenly it takes some time (for example: 5 seconds) until a stream reaches a user (like in a bad mobile phone connection), so that they have to "wait" for each other.
What are the reasons for that? I am sure it has something to do with the bandwidth? And: what can I do about it?
Thank you very much in advance!
Kind regards,
Mike

Hi kanr ,
I tried this code on my FMS 4.0 server.
application.onAppStart = function() {
var entry = new LoadVars();
entry.SessionID="fffd9f3d-4712-4fd4-b6bb-c56ea9a30fba";
entry.filename="test.flv";
entry.type="video/x-flv";
var resp = new LoadVars();
resp.onData = function(data) {
trace("onData" );
resp.onHTTPStatus = function(status) {
trace("status: "+status);
entry.sendAndLoad("http://localhost:8134/cgi-bin/test.pl",resp,"POST");
I do get the HTTP Status as expected i.e 200 in onHTTPStatus. Are you trying something different from this that is not working. If required, you can provide me more details on [email protected]
Thanks,
Abhishek

Flash Media Server & 123FlashChat

Hi All,
I've setup a chat room using 123FlashChat with webcams
enabled. Once in the chat room users can activate their webcams and
everyone can see each other and I can see the connections in the
Flash Media Server admin console. Any advice / assistance
appreciated on the following:
a) How do I record the sessions
b) How do I lock sessions down so they are only one-to-one?
Many thanks

The thing about FMS is that it doesn't do anything on it's
own. In order to get your application to record, it needs to be
programmed to record (there is no "magic switch" anywhere that will
start recording for you.)
So, you'll need to either reprogram the 123FlashChat
application to support recording, or build a new application that
does what you need it to. Based on what you wrote above, my advice
would be to build (or contract a programmer to build) an
application that suits your specific needs.

How to get list of logged-in users from Flash Media Server in a Flash programm? (Or login/logout notifications)

Hi there,
I'm Very sorry for asking this. I guess it's a very basic problem, but I'm very new to Flash and Flash media Server and I need a very fast answer...
Currently I'm working on a Director project using a flash program which connects to Flash Media Server (I guess version 3, it's quite old). Unfortunately they forgot to make a flash method to send the actual userlist (or a notification when someone logged in or out) to Director. AND, unfortunately, they lost the source code of that flash programm, so I cannot look into it or alter it *sigh*.
Now I want to do a new flash programm which covers the old one, letting all known methods "pass trough" and building an additional method to gain the user list (or login/out notification).
How do I get the login information from Flash Media Server? (Would be good if you could provide an idea already for flash code... as I said I'm a tard at flash till now)
Thank you so much. And I hope you understand my situation asking here...
Jana

hparmar : yes, that's what I feared... I hoped it would be possible to tell the server from which application I do need the login information. What a mess.
Dimo Hristov: thanks for your offer! I already tried decompiling the flash program with the shareware version of Trillix Decompiler. It only decompiled the UI (in a terrible way) but no source code at all. It was the shareware version where I can decompile 2 or 3 programms to test the software. Are you sure the non-free version of Trilix Flash Decompiler will do..?

A User Count in a Flash Media Server Application

hello guys, first of all, sorry for my english...
i am making a flash media server application and i want users to see that how many users are currently connected to this application...
i have searched on google for 2 days and i couldnt find a good tutorial for AS3.
i have looked at fmsguru and some other tutorial websites but those wasn't enough for me to succes...
what i am trying to make is; a text area or dynamic text (i dont know which is most suitable for this purpose) which shows the numbers of connected user and i want it change immediately when a user connects or disconnects...
i know there is an array as "application.clients" and i know i should use "application.clients.length" in "main.asc" file to find the number of connected users BUT i can't get this number to the text area or dynamic text in my "swf file".
PLEASE help me by explaining a simple application which uses a "main.asc" file, an "action script" file and a "swf" file. and how to get the number of "application.clients.length", how to send (or call or get) it to the "action script" file, how to show this number in a text field or dynamic text...
i will be very appreciated if someone explain in AS3 and make me success...
thanks for reading...

well here you don't even need the button just tell your textfield to update everytime the server calls after a connection or disconnection. Do you know how to write actionscript at all? Because you would be well advised not to attempt media server stuff unless you know how to do the basics. Maybe you could start out with some client only applications.
import mx.controls.TextArea;
import mx.controls.Button;
import mx.utils.Delegate;
class SimpleChat_call extends MovieClip {
private var myTextArea:TextArea;
private var myButton:Button;
private var _nc:NetConnection;
private var _chatSO:SharedObject;
private function onLoad() {
myButton.addEventListener("click", Delegate.create(this, onUserCount));
public function connect( rtmpString:String) {
_nc = new NetConnection();
_nc.owner = this;
_nc.onStatus = function ( info ) {
if(info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success") {
trace("connected successfully");
this.owner.connectSO( this );
_nc.receiveUsercount = function (count) {
var myTextArea = this.owner.myTextArea;
myTextArea.text = count;
_nc.connect(rtmpString);
private function connectSO( nc ) {
_chatSO.connect( nc );
you didn't even try what i suggested did you because it would have worked without changing the client

Can I use user names and password of Microsoft Office Outlook for hyperion

I'm new to Hyperion. Can anyone tell that can I use "user names" and "passwords" of Microsoft Office Outlook for login into hyperion applications.
I'm not talking about single sign on, but want to use same user names and passwords as that in Outlook.
ANy suggestions?

That depends on how your Outlook authentication is configured.
Hyperion is generally configured to authenticate against a network directory (NTLM, MSAD or LDAP). I'm not an Outlook expert, but my Outlook user ID and password is almost always my MSAD id and password (I change clients regularly, and it's almost always the same situation). So it's also usually the same as my Hyperion ID and password.
Ask your Outlook administrator whether it uses (or syncs with) MSAD, NTLM or LDAP. If the answer is yes, then you're in good shape because Hyperion can use these as well.
Hope this helps,
- Jake

BP: can't edit "user name" field in section "employee data"

Transaction - BP, tab - identification, Change in BP role - employee.
why i can't edit "user name" field in section "employee data"?
Field is unchangeable only for one in a ~800 BPs.

Earlier it is possible to change the User ID field.
Guess that this might be ur prb
If this BP is used somewhere else I mean in some transaction/CRMD_ORDER/Support message,so it might be not possible to change this now....becuase the log will become incosistent.
for e.g. if in ticket XXXX i have been assigned as reporter as...BP no 10
Later you are assigning this to no 10 to some other person or ID ....
Then the log of CRMD_ORDER or ticket will become inconsistent because the BP is now assigned to a different person who never worked on the same.
Actualy i have faced this query during one implementation that why we are able to change the UserID of existing BP even if it is used in some transaction/message.
Might be this is a new correction in the recent release.

Whether Sophos Antivirus can stop taking connection by Flash media server?

Hi
Our flash media server stops taking connection sometime. Any one have any idea about sophos antivirus?
Please suggest what should we do.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks SE for the reply.
But i got a message "Connection to the Server Failed. Please try to rejoin the call".
We were not getting this problem before installation of anitvirus on our client machine. Now FMS gets down or we can say not accepting connection. Even at that time(server down condition) we can't enter into managment console of FMS. Sometime it start taking connection after one hour or two hour.

Can't connect the Flash Media Server

hi ,I am a jackaroo in Flash Media Server
My OS is Windows XP ,I install the Flash Media Server in
C:\programme files\
using fms2_console.swf i can successfully connect to the
server and manage it.
I make a empty folder named 'test' in the application folder
then i deploy it in cosole.
next I write actionscript in flex to connect to the server.
but it always return 'connection failed'
in the server log ,it displays 'Sun 06:46:55 PM: Core (3964)
socket migration failed.'
I use netstat -a ,the port 1111,1935 ,11110,19350 are open.
The code I writed looks like this
NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding =
flash.net.ObjectEncoding.AMF0;
public var net_con:NetConnection;
net_con=new NetConnection();
net_con.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,connectionHandle);
net_con.connect("rtmp:/test");
private function connectionHandle(event:NetStatusEvent):void
if((event.info.code=="NetConnection.Connect.Success")||net_con.connected==true)
Alert.show("CONNECTION SUCC！！！");
else
Alert.show("CONNECTION FAILED！！！");
I don't why it cann't connect to the server
I googled it but find nothing helpful and I think you can
help me .
Very sorry for my bad english .

I think there is no problem in this code.
because In the documention flashmediaserver_developing.pdf
It's write
"Applications are run by creating application instances. When
a client connects to an
application, the client is actually connected to an
application instance. For example, a client
connects to an application named chat_app, as the following
example shows:
nc.connect(“rtmp://myDomain.com/chat_app”);"
I also tried rtmp://127.0.0.1/test ,but same result

Can Flash media server help

Hello,
We are investing on developing a solution to deliver live
streaming of webradio webTv content. I have come to hear about
Flash Media Server, reading on the adobe site didn't provide a way
for us to see how it could help in achieving this. Can anyone
explain brieftly how media server works, why would one choose it
instead of for example the xml-socket built in flash 8?
Thank you

Hello! I have the same problem! I can see the stream displayed on my site, but other people can`t see my stream! I introduced in webroot (FMS) file crossdomain.xml but nothing ! Many people have this problem !FMS is a joke !
