How can I do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder which does not have firewire out/input? it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite RCA output?

I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
Thanx

I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera... is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
thanx

FMS Live Stream Timeout

Can someone please advise on how to create a timeout to a FMS
Live stream when using the FLVPlayback component in Flash. The
FLVPlayback connects to a FMS Live stream that takes a live feed
from a webcam, in order to preserve clients bandwidth, what would
be the best, most reliable way of creating a timeout and
disconnecting the live stream after a set period of say 30 minutes
to stop clients leaving the stream permanently connected - server
side on FMS (how?) or in the .swf or using code in the web page
containing the .swf object.
Many thanks.

How to play live Video Stream with Flex?

I'm trying to get Flex Builder 3 to play a live video stream with Flash Media
Server and Flash Live Media Encoder.
I'm able to stream pre-recrorded (vod) flvs in flex from flash media server.
I'm able to stream live video using Flash/FMS/Flas Live Media Encoder, but not
with Flex.
This code streams pre-recorded Video on Demand flvs, but not live streams:
If I change source to "rtmp://localhost/live/livesream.flv, I get nothing.
What am I doing wrong?
<?xml version="1.0"?>

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
    <mx:HBox>
        <mx:Label text="RTMP FMS 2.0"/>
        <mx:VideoDisplay
            autoBandWidthDetection="false"
            source="rtmp://localhost/vod/Legend.flv"/>
    </mx:HBox>
</mx:Application>
Oh and sorry for the double post. I didn't know there was a seperate FMS forum.

That worked! Thanks *very* much. Stupid of me to forget to set the live attribute to true. Also removed the .flv. BTW: what video component do you prefer?
Here's the working code:

Need license for using H.264 Video codec for live stream with FMS 3.5 series

Hi,
I am creating a live audio-Video chat application in which I use H264 video codec for live streaming. I am using Flash Media Server version 3.5.7. I read some where that H.264 Video streaming using FMS required seperate licencse. So I want to confirm , It is true that H264 video streaming required seperate license? If yes then what is the procedure to get license.
Please let me know its urgent.
Regrads,

Hi Again,
Thanks for your reply.
Here are some articles/posts which says about Royalties to use h264:
http://www.mpegla.com/Lists/MPEG%20LA%20News%20List/Attachments/226/n-10-02-02.pdf 15:27

http://www.streamingmedia.com/Articles/ReadArticle.aspx?ArticleID=65403&PageNum=3
http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/avc/Documents/AVC_TermsSummary.pdf
According to these, any product/service provider, need to pay one time fee based on # of subscribers if we are using h264 for encoding and is charging fee from its users.
About our business: We are web-conferencing solution tool provider and are using Flash Media Server version 3.5.7. I for audio/video. Please help me out if h264 is really free for us or we need to buy license to use that.
Looking forward to hear from you soon.

Fms live stream server stops sending data around 4+hrs

Hi,
I am having some issues with fms servers livestream connection. My rtmp client connects to the server ok and rtmp data flowing ok for about 4hours, in the wireshark trace I can see that the server just stops sending data roughly after 4hours. The server version is 3.5.1, and I also try it on a 4.0 server the data stops coming from the server as well after 5+hours. There are no errors or any indication of session disconneciton in the diagnostic logs. I have also looked thru the settings in applicaiton.xml and server.xml I just don't see any obviious reason for the issue. I do send rtmp Acknowledgement to server after the client receives "window size" bytes, and the client sends ping response to server. Are there any other that client needs to send back to server? It would be greatly appreciated for any pointers and help. Thanks.

Updates:
An interesting observation is that the server stops transmitting data when server-to-client bytes reaches ~4G. The number sounds too much like a system resource limitation. It is a live stream and it is not being recorded so I am not sure where is the 4G limitation coming from. FLVCACHE_MAXSIZE is for recorded stream, I think, and it is set to the default 500MB.
Also, in the access log the check point for connect-continue and play-continue keep showing status of 100, which is supposed to be "Waiting for the application to authenticate.". Is this correct? The connection is successfully connected and play command is successful as shown in the access log. swfVerification is disabled in application.xnl. what does the server waiting for in respect to authentication?
Below is the log:

Problem of republishing remote rtmp live stream with AMF

Hi, Guys
I am trying recieving one live stream from a remote rtmp server and republishing this stream in AMF.
a remote rtmp (rtmp://192.168.1.100/live/remotestream)
AMF instance(codes in application/app/main.asc) recieve and republish to another AMF instance.
I can watch with url(rtmp://192.168.1.100/live/remotestream ) in a player (ex. OSMF player).
But,no data from remote rtmp streaming can be recieved in AMF.
Here is the log:
NetConnection.Connect.Success
Sending error message: Method not found (onBWDone).
mystream.onStatus: NetStream.Publish.Start
mystream.onStatus: NetStream.Play.Reset
My codes in application/app/main.asc
application.onAppStart = function()
          mystream = Stream.get("myvideo");
          myRemoteConn = new NetConnection();
          myRemoteConn.connect("rtmp://192.168.1.100/live");
          myRemoteConn.onStatus =function(info){
           trace(info.code);
           if(info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success"){
                mystream.play("remotestream", -1, -1, true, myRemoteConn);
                //mystream.play("sample", 0, -1, true);<-----if play a local flv video file ,it works.republish fine.
          nc = new NetConnection();
          nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/demo");
          ns = new NetStream(nc);
          ns.setBufferTime(2);
    mystream.onStatus = function(sinfo)
        trace("mystream.onStatus: "+sinfo.code);
        if(sinfo.code == "NetStream.Publish.Start")
                              attach_retVal = ns.attach(mystream);
            if(attach_retVal==true){
                    ns.publish(mystream.name,"live");

On the Macintosh side there is the Camtwist app which allows you to do this and it works smoothly with FMLE. On the PC side I´m not sure but there just got to be more apps capable of this than on the mac side.

Publish Live Stream with VP6 or H264

Hi all,
        I am publishing live stream using web camera but the quality with respect to bandwidth is not good.
        I want to publish the live image using VP6 or H264 codec, how it can be done, please help.
       It is good with FMLE but trying to do in as3.
Thanx in advance.

FMLE can only publish via rtmp or rtmpt.

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

Unfortunately no, there isn't. I struggled with same issue
earlier, and we were forced to purcahse the Interactive edition. As
the 'Streaming' version only runs Adobe-signed apps, there is no
way to change things that happen within the onConnect handler.
Furthermore, guys at Adobe haven't provided any possibility for
even simple access control through configuration files for built-in
apps that come along with the Streaming Server edition.

Live Stream with Slideshow (jpg), possible?

Hi guys,
I'm wondering if the live encoder has the ability to sync images with a live stream. I'd like to store all the images in one folder and push through a call on each slide during the presentation for the image to appear on screen. Obviously it'll never be 100% live but a little delay isn't a problem.
Accordent currently do this with PresenterPlus but i'm in search of a flash version which seems to be Live Encoder minus the slideshow.
Thanks in advance,
Blake

Live streaming with multiple remote cameras?

look up lts security, i found it as a easy, high quality, low cost, and great solution

I didn't see any discussions on SpiceWorks that covered this question. I'm involved in live streaming of my church's services, and we got hit by lightening 2 weeks ago. We had 3 cameras which were able to be remotely controlled by 1 Telemetrics box, and which sent video feed into a digital video mixer. Well, one of the cameras and the remote control box have died, so we are looking to replace the setup with better equipment. I'm able to run the equipment, and even troubleshoot it to an extent, but have no idea what's even out there. Does anyone have any recommendations on a setup for at least 3 remotely controllable (pan/tilt/zoom) HD cameras? The remote control could be either hardware or software based. I have no idea how much the church could budget for a new system, so a range of low-high cost options would be ideal for me to...

Unable to play Level3 live stream with OSMF v1.0

Hi,
I'm trying to play a live stream hosted by level3. When adding the mp4: prefix to my rtmp stream url I am able to connect but get a mediaError:
"Failed to play (stream ID: 1)".
parallelElement.addChild(mediaFactory.createMediaElement(new URLResource(config.rtmpUrl)));
rtmpUrl: rtmp://link-to-level3-server.net/app/mp4:name/streamname/live
I've tested the same stream in flowplayer and jwplayer; both work like a charm. I've noticed that Level3 is listed as a planned CDN provider on the osmf page. Do I have to wait for the level3 plugin to be released or am I missing someting here?

I just found this post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2782150#2782150
Adding a streamingURLResource like below doesn't give any mediaErrors.
var resource:StreamingURLResource = new StreamingURLResource(config.rtmpUrl);
resource.urlIncludesFMSApplicationInstance = true;
parallelElement.addChild(new VideoElement(resource));
I have to test it when I'm back at the office but it seems promising.
Keep you posted!

Why is a recorded stream getting delete when a live stream with the same name is received?

i have an application that plays prerecorded streams. The streamnames are loaded from a xml file an put into an array on the server side. The streams were changed with an Interval.
Thats all works fine.
i want that as soon as a livestreams with the same name as a prerecorded stream in the array is received the livestream is played in the playlist.
I know if i use the starttime -2 in the stream.play-method that the livestream is played instead of the prerecorded stream. But if i use this, the prerecorded streams in the streamfolder getting deleted.
the sequence of my code:
var StreamArray = new Array();
var location_xml = new XML();
var xmlfileObj = new File("Location_list.xml");
location_xml.onLoad = function( success ) {
if(location_xml.loaded == true) {
if (location_xml.firstChild.hasChildNodes()) {
for (var aNode = location_xml.firstChild.firstChild; aNode != null; aNode=aNode.nextSibling) {
if (aNode.nodeType == 1) {
StreamArray[aNode.attributes.id] = aNode.attributes.name ;
location_xml.load(xmlfileObj);
my xml doc:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<location>
<loc id="0" name="home1" />
<loc id="1" name="home2" />
<loc id="2" name="home3" />
<loc id="3" name="home4" />
</location>
Also it would be very helpfully if i could set the names of the prerecorded streams with the name-attribute.
For example:
for(var i = 0; i < StreamArray.length; i++) {
StreamArray[i].name = StreamArray[i];
because i also only can get the livestreams(detected on the application.onPublish-function) with streamObj.name.
many many many thanks for any replies or solutions,
Arvit

Hey Ronald Everett,
Thanks for the question. Are these CD’s that you purchased or created yourself? If it is the latter, Gracenote media database information will not appear. For more information on Gracenote, see this resource:
