How do I use Adobe Media Server 5 on Amazon Web Services?

Adobe Media Server 5 on Amazon Web Services was suggested to my project manager as a way to deal with some of the video we have to host at work, but after signing up and poking around, I'm wondering: how do you actually use it? Is it something that requires the Media Server software, or is there a web interface through AWS? I follow the links, and they tell me it's already active for my account - but I still see no way to use it.
Thanks in advance for help on this seemingly remedial question!

Hi,
Please have a look at the document and let me know if it helps you get started: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/adobemediaserver/amazonec2/adobemediaserve r_5.0_amazonec2.pdf
Thanks,

Streaming interactive swf files using Adobe Media server

Hi!,
I have some swf files which are interactive. Is it possible to stream them using adobe media server via http or rtmp? Will the resulting stream be interactive? I have to play this streams on android devices. If not possible, is there any other way?
I'm using 5.0.3 version of Media server. Our Android devices are Jellybean and ICS.

This kind of question really has a much better chance to get a good answer if asked in the product-specific forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_media_server

Record every received Stream using Adobe Media Server

We have a platform implementing CometChat product, this producto has Audio Video Chat, using RTMP stream, we rent Influxis.com service because they offered to record each streaming from CometChat AVChat, we want to know if its possible to achieve this using Adobe Media Server, because CometChat request a lot of money to record them, so, we need to know if this is possible just buying the Adobe Media Server, because we have our own Virtual Server, so we can Install it there and use it, but we want to know if there is something that need tos do CometChat, because that things will cost a lot for us.
Please, any help would be great, its really Urgent, our site its in use now, and we need to record every stream because our site manages children interactivity, so, because of security this its really urgent.
Thanks in advance.

We are using the Azure server for our web services. Server is generating an error "Unable to connect to the remote server". What is this error means

Hello,
Did you means that you use the Windows Azure Virtual Machine DNS name as the server name in the Reporting Server Web Services URL?
For example:
Report server:http://uebi.cloudapp.net/reportserver
Report manager:http://uebi.cloudapp.net/reports
If you want to connect to Report Manager on the virtual machine from a remote computer, you should create a virtual machine TCP Endpoint and open the port in the virtual machine’s firewall. By default, the report server listens for HTTP requests
on port 80.

How to create playlist on amazon using adobe media server

Hello All ,
I have created ec2 instance on Amazon and completed the On-demand streaming with Flash Media Playback and configure fms and now I am able to play my video by using my public DNS . 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.

Timecode/TimeStamp in RTMP live streaming using Adobe Media Server and FMLE

HI There,
Am trying to stream a video on to Adobe media server(using RTMP) through FMLE and play it on my web site using JWPlayer. i could stream the video successfully, but know i want to get the timestamp/timecode on the stream. does Adobe media server and FMLE support this kind of use-case ? if not is there any other way to achieve the same. any comments/suggestion/pointers appreciated .
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Deepak

If you're talking about nonstop, continuous streaming, your subscribing client will need to close and reconnect the stream every couple of days, as the server will run out of timestamps for the stream.

How do I edit the permissions that Adobe Media Server creates directories with?

OS: CentOS 6.6 AWS-provided AMI found here
I'm using Adobe Media Server 5.0.7.
I have my application set up so that when a user records a video to the server, it goes into its own directory.
If this directory does not exist, it is created automatically by AMS. The problem is that this new directory is created with a permission level that prevents my other app from reading and accessing objects inside of it.
How can I tell AMS to create directories with a permissions level that I specify?

I was reading up about nellymoser on Wikipedia (the most reliable source!) and it seems like Adobe has problems with the licensing for nellymoser. They apparently tried to release a standalone converter, but the licence agreement that was inherited with the codec didn't allow it.
So maybe it's just a rock in a hard place situation. Really too bad, if this is the case, that a company can own something but not be able to allow their customers to use it fully.

Some Adobe Media Server questions

Hello,
I need to setup Adobe Media server for my production environment and I have some questions.I need to have online media library (video on demand) available for end users as clips embedded in my site. My questions are:
- What kind of source files are supported (source format, video/audio codec etc).
- I also need dynamic video quality (user internet connection quality sholud be detected and video quality adjusted automatically). In addition, video should be transcoded and user should be able to choose video quality (and resolution) by hand. FlowPlayer is preffered player to be embedded to my site and it should be set up as client for adobe media server. What is the best way to implement this scenario? I can't find any step by step guide how to setup this (including dynamic quality adjustment). Any help
- Live streams. The same as vod. I assume I will need Flash Media Encoder to encode stream from input source, so client will need to setup bitrate and other parameters? How to setup dynamic quality for clients - will server transcode stream again? How to setup this? I can't find any guide step by step, can you help me?
- Video chat. How can I setup this using Adobe Media Server? Is this possible to make video chat via Adobe Media Server using flash applications like FSChat?

This is possible but will require some coding skills, an exampe can be found here.

Adobe Media Server HELP!

What is the minimum server hardware specifications for RAM, CPU and hard drive speeds (capacity I know) for streaming content to the web in 1080p using Adobe Media Server?

[Moved the discussion to Media Server Forum]

Vhost configuration for Adobe Media Server running under linux.

Please help me with Vhost configuration for Adobe Media Server running under linux.
I was running a media sharing website for which I wanted to use Adobe Media Server.
To use, AMS, I disabled the already installed Apache server and installed AMS along with the built in Apache server. I could successfully install AMS and could login to AMS Admin Console through my IP number.
My existing website, www.mydomain.com is having its contents located at:
/home/mydomain/public_html
(Directory created under the old version of Apache not bundled with AMS)
Users will be uploading their videos, which will get transcoded and will be delivered to the website visitors in the existing scenario.
To use this website with AMS, this is what I did:
I created a folder for my domain, www.mydomain.com as below
/opt/adobe/ams/conf/_defaultRoot_/www.mydomain.com
Copied Application.xml and Vhost.xml from /opt/adobe/ams/conf/_defaultRoot_/ and pasted them in /opt/adobe/ams/conf/_defaultRoot_/www.mydomain.com
In the Application.xml file there are 2 entries:
<Alias name="mydomain.com"></Alias>
<AppsDir>${/home/mydomain/public_html}</AppsDir>
Please help me with further steps to be completed:
Do I need to create a separate VirtualHost entry in the Apache installed with AMS?
If yes, can I specify already existing document root for my website (/home/mydomain/public_html) or do I need to create a separate folder under webroot/Apache ?
If yes to point 2 above, then do I need to copy all the existing contents from /home/mydomain/public_html to the newly created folder ?
I hope, I can serve all my static contents like html pages and php and media like video/audio. In that case do I need create alias to my Media/Alias folder or AMS will automatically start streaming when a video/audio is requested ?
What other steps do i need to complete?
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

TS4055 How do I use my MacBook Air to access the Amazon Web Service?

How do I use my MacBook Air to access AWS (Amazon web Service)? The information provided to me by Apple Care seems to be about allowing outside access to my MacBook.

Sorry, but does this relate to Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Macs, in some way? If so, how are you using ARD in relation to Amazon's services?

How to connect to Akamai using RTMP SDK (Adobe Media Server Connector for C++)?

We need to stream live video to Akamai using RTMP. But, we are trying to connect using ADOBE RTMP SDK (Adobe Media Server Connector for C++ 2.0.1), but have no idea regarding how to connect to Akamai using the SDK. How to make the SDK respond to the server challenges for password etc. If this can't be done using the RTMP SDK, we can use plain C++ for the purpose. But for that too, we don't have any idea regarding the steps involved to make it work. If anyone has any idea on how to connect to Akamai using the RTMP SDK or using plain C++ (a sample code will be very helpful), please help us out. If you can suggest any C/C++/.NET library too which will help us achieve it, we are ready to do so. Thanks in advance.

hi,
I am sorry I can not help you. Could you do me a favor? I know you are using Adobe RTMP SDK.I want to know how to get it.
I tried to contact adobe at [email protected] but it seems to be an invalid email address.if you know efficient way,
please tell me.Thank you very much.

How to pass an image from the mobile application to the Adobe Media Server?

The image is taken as photo from the CameraUI in the Client Side(AIR Mobile Application) and saved as a .jpg file in the mobile. I passed the image byte array values from the client to the server. How to convert that byte array to a file in the Adobe Media server?

This is very similar to the problem here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/655314
processByteArray = function(byteArrayAsPlainObject){
     // byteArrayAsPlainObject is an object serialized from a ByteArray but without functions
     // we need to get a ByteArray that we can call functions on
     var usableByteArray = new ByteArray();
     byteArrayAsPlainObject.position = 0; // make sure we start from the beginning
     ByteArray.prototype.readBytes.call(byteArrayAsPlainObject, usableByteArray);
     // now usableByteArray contains what was in the original argument, but we can actually use it on the server side
