Help me step by step for using Flash Media Server!

Dear all!
With reference to advertisement/introduction of in website (http://www.adobe.com/ ), I am writing to you to request some things bellows:
My company would like build video streaming application on Website (and mobile in future), maybe something likes http://youtube.com . It is streaming: films, video clips with the different sizes which are stored in folder of server with high quality, powerful, secure, extendable, high-performance, highly scalable, and custom video solutions. After I went through the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 of Adobe I see that it seem usefully with the streaming video application of my company. So that, before my company purchases the Flash Media Interactive 3.5 software we would like use trial the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software with full features, unlimited the end users, and full functions in few months. And we hope you provide full Flash Media Interactive 3.5 software and guide clearly, more details and more focus for “how to use the Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 for matching with our application” during use trial. If we see this software which displays well the streaming video application and it matches with our application so that we will purchase this software immediately.
Addition, did we have the encoder (video, film) software when we purchase full Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5? Because, I know that adobe media encoder CS4 supports for encoding video/film to FLV/F4V, but it is different software and do not package with Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 software. And do you have software to encode automatically video/film like flash media live encoder? Because I think that there are some troubles to use adobe media encoder CS4 for encoding video/film such as: sequential, so slow, non-auto encoding and occupies 100% CPU performance.
Finally, adobe flash player 10 in Flash Media Interactive 3.5 has HD (+,-) feature. But I do not know to use it? Could you tell us more?
Please give me your hotmail for chatting and reply us early!
Thank for your prompt help!
Sincerely,

Hi Thao Nguyen Thi,
You could download the Flash Media Development Server for free which provides the complete feature set. The only limitation is on the number of connects (allows only 10). But you could use that to try out a scaled down deployment which might give you an idea on what factors to consider while scaling up while allowing you to try out the streaming aspects.
There is also this helpful document http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/fmis_largescale_deploy.html which gives a lot of useful information while going about the deployment.
From what you say you seem to be interested to know the deployment of Video on Demand (VOD) streams.
Thanks

Hi. It looks like your code is not finding the mp3. At least,
I can reproduce your error code by removing the mp3 from the
directory, or renaming it.
Btw, if you test with FF instead of IE, you'd see the error:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2032:
Stream Error.

hello all
Is it possible to use flash media server in show n share (non dme)live event ? i 've configured flash media server, can receive multicast streams, bu i have no idea what to write in video url fild in the live event basic setup.

Hi Temur,
You should be able to stream from a Flash Media Server.
The URL should look like this:
rtmp://xxx.yyy.com//flv:
You can do some tests from a PC to get the exact URL that would suit your environment.

I'm more or less in the same boat. I've got the admin console

I can also load the html and swf file to my xp machine that
has access to the server via our internal network. (DNS isn't

Problem with NetConnection in Flex using Flash Media Server

nc.myFunction = function():void{
error generated by the nc.myFunction line is:

I tried putting the function declaration inside the onConnect handler and inside the init function, niether will remove the error.

Can you write piece of code which you can trigger on click of button. I mean put a button on your swf file say name it "btnstopPublish" and click on it. Write below code snippet in click handler of the button and see if it works for you,
btnstopPublish.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopPublish);
function stopPublish_Play(eventObj:MouseEvent){
ns.publish(false);
ns.close();
nsPlayer.play(false);
nsPlayer.close();

I'd like to revive this topic as I just purchased an ATV. I do like it but I am becoming very familiar with the limitations of the ATV.
I used to have a Snyology NAS server but it did not serve/stream the iTunes well enough to my stereo. I have a lot of photos of my children as well as movies and wanted to see more of them so I purchased the ATV as I knew the Syno server/NAS would be bricking soon.
Once the ATV is loaded it is fine for that content. But if there is other content on other computers well, they have to stream and the content on the ATV is not accessible to anything other than the stereo or TV that the ATV is connected to. So, finally, here is my question:
Which NAS streams VERY WELL with the ATV? Correct me if I am wrong but the NAS has to have iTunes imbedded within the server; yes? Secondly, is the best solution for serving an ATV as well as having all media content accessible to all LAN computers a Mac Mini?
So which is it? Please recommend an NAS that can serve iTunes media (music, photos, video) to an Apple TV or is the best solution a Mac Mini which acts like a NAS and streams all media content to the Apple TV and ATV will stream it to HDTV through HDMI , etc.
The ATV is great with the High Def.., wide screen, Dolby 5.1, HDMI port , etc. Just need a way to have the media accessible to everyone on the LAN as well as serve/stream to an already purchased Apple TV.
Thanks for the help,

You need to place the crossdomain.xml in the webroot folder. Create a text file in the webroot folder using notepad, and call it crossdomain.xml. The text below will give you a wide open access policy, which is fine for testing.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" />
</cross-domain-policy>
For debugging HTTP streaming I recommend you get hold of something like Charles or Fiddler. These will greatly assist in pinpointing any issues.

FMS4 -Set the Flash Media Server services to Run as Administrator (FMSCore not running)

Installed fms4 x64 on windows server 2008 to try it out. When i open up task manager to check processes running, FMSCore process does not runhttp://kb2.adobe.com/cps/862/cpsid_86205.htmlI found this in the knowledge base but step3 "Run this program As Administrator" checkbox is greyed out so i cannot do anything. I have stopped and restarted service so many time, rebooted server at least twice.
Even the video that's supposed to play when you click the start screen is not playingSet the Flash Media Server services to Run as Administrator
Complete the following steps for each of the following files located in the Flash Media Server root installation folder (C:/Program Files/Adobe/Flash Media Server, by default):
FMSAdmin.exe
FMSCore.exe
FMSMaster.exe
FMSEdge.exe
Right-click the file and chooseProperties.
Select the Compatibility tab and click Change Settings For All Users.
Select Run This Program As Administrator. Click Apply, and then click OK.
Complete these steps for each Flash Media Server service.
Restart the computer.
Flash Media Server starts when the computer starts.

Hi,
Thanks for using FMS4.
When you said "
I have stopped and restarted service so many time, rebooted server at least twice. "
How did you make sure that the services are restarted ? Probably they have not yet started at all ? You need to have admin privileges to start/stop the FMS services. Please make sure you have the admin rights for the logged in user.
Open a command prompt as admin, and run the following commands :
net start fms
net start fmsadmin.

Chat extension to flash media server

Hi,
We have been using flash media server with great success. We were wondering if the is any software package which works with the server to provide text chat amongst the user. I would think that there is someone who already built the software for a price.

I am not sure if someone provides such a package. However, in case you are trying to develop such a chat system, there is a tutorial at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/first_im_app.html which should help you understand how to build such a system. Also there is one tutorial here at http://www.fmsguru.com/showtutorial.cfm?tutorialID=36 which could help you on this

How to create playlist on amazon using adobe media server

Now I want to login using Flash Media Server Administration Console. I have set username and password in fms.ini file but until I not able to login.
please help me

No sample is required ..... the data fiel is created automatically for you and is based on the structure of the design (if none is implied with a data connection). To get the data out of the form you can use a button that has this code on the click event:
xfa.host.exportData();
When th euser clicks the button a dialog will appear allowing th euser to select a location for the file. Note that it will save it as an XDP (XML Data Package) file, but it is simply XML. There are a number of parameters that you can pass to the command that will allow you to save as XML directly. You can look that up in the Help files.

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:

Flash Media Server 3 / FlashPioneer Video Chat

Just recently, I purchased and installed
'FlashPioneerVideoChat'...
I decided to use Flash Media Server 3 (developer addition)
for the local server. The problem is you can't login to the FMS
Server from the client end although all other communication aspects
work fine. When a connection is made the login starts but doesn't
open the application, it just keeps running. The Client side has
been debugged and tested so that points to the Flash Server and
whatever settings have to be made and/or code added to what file?
Could someone please point me in the right direction, Thank
you much ...

Hi, but doesn't the linux version work on a mac?
I'm a bit confused here.
I currently shoot video on a Canon mini dv camera and edit in Apple imovie.
Convert to Apple Quicktime and then import into Flash 8 video encoder.
I ftp the clips upto a flash server, from my mac and upload the playlist to my website host
using Flash 8.
Don't tell me i've now got to get one of those dreadful PC thingies to complete the loop,
surely Adobe didn't invent this wonderful piece of software so it could run from a PC?
Or did they?

Bitmapdata + Flash Media Server 3

I could not make streaming bitmapdata using Flash Media

nc.close()
nc = new NetConnection();
NetConnection.defaultObjectEncoding =
flash.net.ObjectEncoding.AMF3;
nc.addEventListener( NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, netStatus );
nc.connect("rtmp://localhost/fmsdemo/demo", "demo");
private function netStatus( event:NetStatusEvent ):void
switch( event.info.code ) {
case "NetConnection.Connect.Success":

nc.client = this;

users_so.client = this;

Hello :)
You must try to transform your BitmapData in ByteArray ...
you dispatch
your ByteArray to the server... and when you receive the
ByteArray to
the server you transform your ByteArray in BitmapData ;)
See the code source in my French article about AMF3 and
classmapping
with FMS3 :
http://www.ekameleon.net/blog/index.php?2008/01/27/92--fmis3-flash-media-interactive-serve r-3-amf3-and-classmapping
To transform un objet in ByteArray i use the code :
var buffer:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
buffer.writeObject( myObject );
And to transform the ByteArray in a new object :
var o:* = buffer.readObject();
For me this solution is a good solution to send objects with
AMF3. AMF3
support ByteArray, XML(E4X), Number, Boolean, String, Object,
Array and
class mapping (use registerClass). I don't think AMF3 support
the
BitmapData type ?
EKA+ :)

Flash media server stops accepting connection.

We have one application in which we are using flash media server 2.0.5. We dont know why it's stop taking connection occasionally at that time we can't enter into the managment console. We get a white screen. When we try to enter user name and password it's does not accpet the credentials. We are not getting anything in the log.
Port number 1935 and 1111 of the particular system where FMS has placed are working fine.
Does anybody have any idea why we are facing this problem?

That's a pretty old version, have you thought of upgrading?
There are a few reasons this could be happening. You could be reaching the limit for connections or bandwidth.
There could be a problem in your server side coding that is stalling the app.
There could be a problem with the service itself and it's maxing out on memory or CPU. I don't know why you are getting a white screen for anything, the management console has never been white for me and I suspect that it's more of a local computer problem unless it's the same computer you are running the service on..
Any more information on the license, server hardware or environment?

Help me step by step for using Flash Media Server!
