Great tutorial on Flash Media Playback

If you're looking for a great tutorial on Flash Media Playback, check out Greg Hamer's DevNet article here.
Thanks!

The purpose of that product is to embed in HTML. If you're using AIR and use a StageWebView (which displays a native browser/HTML) then yes you could. Otherwise the purpose is specifically NOT to require Flash Professional. It's a fallback player, which means it attempts to use HTML5/MP4 as a best practice. If it senses no mp4 support it falls back to a flash player/SWF. The very nature of it overall is a copy and paste media player to use if you don't have Flash Pro.
It's based on OSMF, which is a player you can use inside Flash Pro:

  • Flash Media Playback configurator swf file size

    Hello,
    I just start using the Flash Media Playback configurator : http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp/ and I am very surprised that the size of the swf file is less than 2KB. The swf file used is http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf
    How did you compile it to make it so small ? It is based on OSMF ?
    Usually the swf file's size of a flash video player based on OSMF seems to be greater. For example the swf file used on page http://www.osmf.org/ (http://www.osmf.org/strobe1_0/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf) is about 193KB or on page http://osmf.org/dev/1.6gm/setup.html (http://osmf.org/dev/1.6gm/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf) is about 422KB.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the quick reply Gelu. I emptied the cache of my web browser and had a look at all http requests (with Charles proxy and Firebug) sent when loading the page http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp/. The only .swf loaded I can see is http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback.swf.
    Is there another cache involved ?
    Thanks,

  • Flash Media Playback - Compatible with Flash Pro?

    Hi all, I recently came across the Flash Media Playback player, (http://www.adobe.com/products/flash-media-playback.html) and it seems like a great solution for streaming video on a website. However, I'm wondering if we can somehow use the Flash Media Playback streaming service inside of Flash Professional. The FMP only outputs html code, so I'm not sure how or if this could be used in Flash, but is seem like something that should be possible.
    Any ideas? Thanks!

    Thanks Janaki but how can I add a new application? I tried to do it using Flash Media Administration Console but it doesn't work
    Hi Salma,
    To add an application to FMS follow the below steps
    1. Create a folder "my_app" under "$InstallRoot\applications" directory.
    2. For simple server side code... add "main.asc" file inside "$InstallRoot\applications\my_app" directory which has the content like
    application.onConnect = function(clientObj){
         trace('onConnect function");
         return true;
    3. To add streams to the application, creates 'streams' folder inside "$InstallRoot\applications\my_app" directory, within that create '_definst_' folder and then place your FMS supported streams within the directory. So your streams for the 'my_app' application will be at "$InstallRoot\applications\my_app\streams\_definst_\mystream.flv".
    You can connect to this application using the url "rtmp://your_server_name/my_app". To play the stream mystream.flv using video player, use the url "rtmp://your_server_name/my_app/mystream.flv".
    Regards,
    Janaki L

  • No audio streaming RTMP from Red5 to Flash Media Playback

    I am streaming RTMP from a Red5 server and viewing with Flash Media Playback. The video is fine but there is no audio. The audio from the same stream comes through when I try playing it with the FlashRTMPPlayer Demo that is included with Wowza so I know that the audio is in the stream. Is there any debugging information I can look for or any other configuration settings I need to try?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Such behavior can be an indication that you are infected.<br />
    In such a case you can use another computer to download the program and save the file to an USB stick.<br />
    Be sure to download the latest databases.

  • Flash Media Playback Utility download broken

    The Flash Media Playback tool is advertised here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash-media-playback.html  But the download link has been hijacked to go to an open source download site that has nothing to do with the Flash Media Playback utility.  How can I get the Flash Media Playback tool?

  • Can't seem to stream (RTMP) an FLV file in Flash Media Playback from the Amazon Cloud

    I seem to be having trouble streaming any FLV file using RTMP from the Amazon Cloud.  Other file formats (i.e., MP4, F4V) seem to work just fine.
    I tried using your Flash Media Playback demo page and still had the same problem:
    http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp/
    Without publicly displaying the actual connection path here, this is what I am using for the Video Source (URL):
    rtmp://xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.cloudfront.net/cfx/st/_definst_/MyVideo.flv
    If I change the "MyVideo.flv" to "mp4:MyVideo.f4v", for example, then it works.  But when I try to reference any FLV file that I have located on the Amazon Cloud then it just shows continuous buffering.
    The FLV files that I am trying to use with both the Strobe and Flash Media Playback(s) all stream just fine when I connect to them via other Flash based applications/players that I have.
    Do you have any suggestions?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello,
    The link to the previous post does not seem to apply or help in this case.  Please let me know if I am wrong.
    I am merely trying to stream any FLV file using your Flash Media Playback demo page.  What am I missing here?
    Thanks again.

  • Welcome to Flash Media Playback!

    Welcome to the Flash Media Playback User Forum!
    We are pleased to announce the inaugural release of Flash Media Playback (FMP).  FMP is Adobe’s turnkey player built on the Open Source Media Framework (OSMF).  It is hosted on Adobe’s servers so that anyone who wants to embed video on their website can use it to play their video by simply referencing it in the website’s HTML.  All you need is the URL for your video content and your desired dimensions for your video player window, and you can have video playing on your site in no time.  You can enter in these values into the FMP configurator, press the “Preview” button, and it will generate the embed code you need to copy and paste into your webpage’s HTML.
    FMP is a fully featured player.  Features include:
    - Support for RTMP and HTTP dynamic streaming
    - Support for Flash Access 2.0
    - Default chrome that can be customized
    - Ability to display a play button overlay, poster frame, and animated buffering indicator
    For more information on Flash Media Playback, please visit the FMP product pages on Adobe.com.
    We are really excited about FMP, and we would love to hear your feedback!
    Warm regards,

  • About Licence of  Flash media playback

    I am using the flash media server with HTTP Origin Module for development.Is this open source or It has any licence issues.Please clearify me on this.

    I'm not too sure what you're asking, but I will attempt to assist.
    If you asking about the Adobe Flash Media Playback, it is not Open Source, but  is free and is hosted on Adobe's server clusters. If you want the Open Source Media Framework (OSMF) version, you need Strobe Media Playback, which can be found here.
    If you're referring to the Adobe Flash Media Server licensing, it is not Open Source, and a license for whichever version you need must be purchased from an authorized Adobe Reseller. The trial version is known as the Adobe Flash Media Development Server and has no time limit for installation, but there are limitations on available features. A list of features in all FMS products and limitations within the Adobe Flash Media Development Server can be found in the feature matrix in the FMS 4.5 White Paper, located here.
    Lastly, it is most important to note that your post is in the wrong forum. For future reference, if you have FMS related questions, they should be posted here:

  • Flash Media Playback?

    Does Adobe expect us to use FMP to play videos off AMS? If so, is there an easy solution for closed captioning?
    All the videos on Adobe.com have a CC button, but it appears to not be standard on FMP. Why is that?
