Flash Media Server 4.5 Interactive and VMWare

Can anyone speak to if FMS 4.5 Interactive is supported in a VMWare environment? If so, what are the resource requirements? I'm not getting any firm information from searching around so I'm hoping someone here can offer some insight. Thanks!

yes it is suported .... vmware environment is totally indepedent of any application related specifications.. go ahead to install it in your virtual machine .. it should work fine... make sure that you bridge the network adapters to make it accessible to your LAN or via your Static IP through WAN

Hey Kristich,
Is the server that you have created behind some NAT, etc?
If you are using an IP of the form 10.x.x.x or 172.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x then these are private IPv4 address spaces and not public IPs(which is unique), and you wont be able access them from outside.

Flash Media Server 4.5: HLS and Applications Interaction

Hi,
We are deploying FMS 4.5 on our farm and we thought that all the business rules at our FMS applications would be reused on connections from iDevices (HLS). This has not happened.
Is there any way to reuse the business rules which are on our FMS applications and access plugins to HLS content delivery? We mean business rules as geolocation authorization, hash check and lock services.

Hi,
something similiar i have discussed on this forum, here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/942073
I think you must write an iOS app for all your needs and try to solve this outside FMS - in your apache to be more concrete.
For authentication, we've tested this:
- adding basic user/pass authentication to the location hls-live (in httpd.conf)
- viewing the stream through browser via https://user:pass@name-of-the-server/..../..m3u8
(user/pass sent encrypted via https, you need a certificate on the server to do all this)
That way, only authenticated user will view the stream.
(did it for the hds-live also)
not sure if this will work with iOS app though... my best guess is - it would.
I think that nothing you have server side as a asc script for rtmp will work for http streaming, someone correct me if i'm wrong...
I REALLY hope that some next version will include anything related to HLS protection in this context.

Windows Vista and Flash Media Server Streaming Problems

My company recently started using Flash Media Server to
stream audio and video content.
My boss just installed Windows Vista Ultimate and now no
streaming content will play at all. Simple Flash animations work,
but nothing that accesses the Flash Media Server for content. I've
uninstalled and reinstalled multiple versions of the Flash Player
on his machine but nothing seems to work. I also tried the new
"Reset" feature in IE that is supposed to return it to it's
shipping state and that didn't work. I navigated to the "System 32"
folder and ran the Flash Updater EXE. I downloaded and installed
all of the available updates through "Windows Update".
I also tested Flash Objects that stream video on Adobe.com
and they don't play either. Has anyone heard of this happening or
know what I need to do to fix it? I don't know if this is a bug in
the Flash Player or with Windows Vista.

This appears to be the solution:

Integrating Flash Media Server with other formats

I would like to create a standard screen/player that can play
any of the following formats:
windows media files, all flash files, quick time files, real
player files.
So, for example, lets say I want to manipulate the screen to
be an exact aspect ratio and have the same skin, and exact same
controls as my flash files, but I don't want to work with Real
Server or a Windows Media Server to serve these files what is the
best approach to take ? i.e. a "Standardized" look and feel for all
the formats listed.
Where would I be able to get information that will help me
achieve this ?

There are two parts to this,
Flash Media Server application - both client and server side. Check out the video conference app here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/sample_apps.html.
The client side app will be a .swf file which you can develop in Flash/Flex.
Second, you will have to embed this swf file in your asp.net page that will be delivered to browsers. I am not an expert in asp.net but googled a bit and get a feeling it's possible using
tag.
Also don't forget to check this link http://renaun.com/blog/2006/10/28/139/ for video conferencing app using flex and FMS.

WAMP and Flash Media Server

I currently have WAMP(Windows, Apache,MySQL,PHP) installed as
my primary server; I do not want to change this. What I would like
to do is use Flash Media Server as my primary streaming server and
be able to host media files on it. I have been informed that if I
broadcast from the Media Server on Port 80 I will run into trouble
when I start the WAMP server (because it works on Port 80). The
resolution that I've been told is to put the Media Server on Port
:8080. What I am trying to find out is if any one here is running
the Flash Media Server as a second server using Port 8080 or is it
smarter to just assign Flash Media Server it's own port. By the
way, I am trying to set up a test environment that will replicate
what the real server and application will have to do. Any advice is
greatly appreciated. Thank You
In2mobile

what version of windows are you running?.......try shutting down fms service before making changes.......I know in windows 7 you have to right click choose properties of the folder fms.ini resides in and adjust the security settings.

Double-byte Chinese characters between Flash Media Server and WebLogic 9.2

i have installed a FMS (Flash Media Server 4.0 developer edition) and a weblogic server on linux. The two servers communicate with each other via WebService (Axis2 on Weblogic 9.2). i can send some XML message from FMS to the Weblogic server and receive message. but the returned message from the Weblogic server is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
<response>
<result>1</result>
<reports >
<test>x8054x901Ax6027x6D4Bx8BD5</test>
</reports>
</response>
</root>
the returned messages between the <test> and </test> tag can be decoded to "测试联通性" in Chinese via utf-8. why not the returned messages just show the result as :
<test>测试联通性</test>
Later i made another test: copy the war file in weblogic server to a apache-tomcat server, then the FMS send XML message to apache-tomcat and got the correct message as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<root>
<response>
<result>1</result>
<reports >
<test>测试联通性</test>
</reports>
</response>
</root>
then what is the problem with my weblogic? what shall i do to solve the problem? thank you for anyone who gives me some advice.

Demos

Hi,
Thanks for your interest in FMS and Strobe Media Player. SMP is a out of box sample player that can play streams from FMS and no coding is required for its basic functionality.
It can play RTMP and HTTP dynamic Streaming / HTTP progressive as well as multicast streams.
Download the Strobe media playback from http://www.osmf.org/strobe_mediaplayback.html , host it on a webserver and launch in a broswer.
launch either strobemediaplayback.html or setup.html to setup your own player with different settings.
Thank you !

Hi,
Are you trying to make an air app or a web application (flash) for streaming? You may want to check out the osmf framework to help you write a player for mobile platform. Check out http://www.opensourcemediaframework.com/ for more info on how you can write streaming video players using this framework. There are some good tutorials there and also you may post on the forum to get your specific queries solved.
Thanks,

Live Streaming video and Flex2(3?) + Flash Media Server?

I've seen alot of topic on how to create video sites for
clips, etc. with Flex and Flash Media Server, but how about live
streaming video, like a concert or a seminar. I can't find any
information on this at all, could anyone point me in the right
direction?

What you need is grab video/sound form camera/mic, publish it
on FMS and let the other clients play it. In a few steps:
// get camera and mic
var cam:Camera = Camera.getCamera(); // get default camera
var mic:Microphone = Microphone.getMicrophone(); // get
default mic
// if you have VideoDisplay, for monitoring
videoDisplay.attachCamera(cam);
// create new RTMP connection to FMS/your app
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
// new stream should be create *after* nc has connected, not
before
// so this is executed after the below nc.connect() succeeds
nc.attachEventListener(Event.CONNECT, function(){
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream();
ns.attachCamera(cam);
ns.attachMicrophone(mic);
ns.publish("streamname", "live"); // or "record" if you want
to live+rec
// connect to default instance of app 'appname' on your FMS
nc.connect("rtmp://fms.ip.address/appname");
If you're using Flex2 and FMS2 (the latest FMS is 3), you
might need to
cuange the connection encoding to AMF0 (which is what FMS2
uses) in order for this to work.
Hope this helps; I've written it from my head so it probably
has mistakes, but it's the general workflow; the docs in the
language reference for specific functions mentioned here will also
help.
