I need advice on creating streaming video applications in FMIS

Hello all,
I have gone through Tom Green's helpful tutorials on streaming from the vod folder (FMS Developer) and using his application to stream from the applications folder (FMIS).
What I need to know now, is what to do to create a player for use on my video page. Just when I think I have this figured out a little more, I end up stymied.
For example, I just downloaded and read through the 22-page intro to the RealEyes REOPS player. This isn't the first time I have researched this player, but every time I start reading up on it, it feels as though it's making sense, then the treatment drifts straight into software engineer-speak and I'm left thinking this will be impossible to grasp.
I researched Strobe. Yet another exceedingly-difficult bit of information to understand when you're a beginner. Ultimately leaving me staring at the screen wondering what I just read.
I have a full, licensed copy of FMIS running on my web server and I want to stream video from it. I really don't care if the player is flashy or not...I want the viewer to enjoy the video, that's what is important. I don't need closed captioning, I just want a full-screen capable player. Something basic that will play SH and h.264 clips. If one player can't be made to do both, I'll need one for each.
I'm self-taught PHP and database design, self-taught web designer, I have tackled big projects before and I am undaunted by this one...I JUST need some idea where to go.
For instance, when forst prompted to read Tom Green's tutorials, they made no sense to me. It took helpful posts from all of you on this forum to get me to the 'aha!' moments that allowed me to appreciate Tom's tutorials. I need that 'aha!' with regards to buildign applications. The one Tom uses in his Part 3, Beginner's guide to using ActionScript 3.0 with Flash Media Server 3.5 tutorial is cool, but it's not a player. I know enough to change the RTMP path and video filename to make this thing stream my files from my server, but there's another gap in what I want to do and what I need to know to head in that direction.
Any and all input will be absolutely appreciated.
Sincerely,
wordman

  • Need help in creating a web application that runs on a stand alone sys.

    I am planning a small java web application complete with database. I need to know if there are any ways to deploy that application on a stand alone system and that if there is any way to make an executable for that application so that the user need not go through the process of deploying the app and starting the server whenever he restarts the system. Can anyone help me in this regard? Thanks in advance.

    Hi Alex,
    Since I had a Gmail test servlet kicking around, I ran it on the latest V3 nightly build.
    On the first run, I encountered the following nested exceptions:
    javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: smtp.gmail.com, port: 465
    --> java.net.SocketException: java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Error constructing implementation (algorithm: Default, provider: SunJSSE, class: com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.DefaultSSLContextImpl)
        --> java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Error constructing implementation (algorithm: Default, provider: SunJSSE, class: com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.DefaultSSLContextImpl)
            --> java.security.UnrecoverableKeyException: Password must not be nullThe UnrecoverableKeyException is a manifestation of [https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=6938|https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=6938]
    I worked around this by adding the following JVM config options to domain.xml
    <jvm-options>-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=changeit</jvm-options>
    <jvm-options>-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit</jvm-options> (Note: the default master password is "changeit")
    These lines are placed in /domain/configs/config/java-config of domain.xml for the particular server config you're using. There's only one server config in the default domain.xml shipped with V3. Then restart the server.
    I retested the code on both port 465 and 587, with and without the above config changes. Without the change, they both fail the same way, and with the change, they both work. Let me know if this helps.

  • Need advice on creating buttons in email please

    I am looking to send an email to a group of friends with an invitation attached that I have created in Pages.
    The invite is written in MadGab form so ideally I would like to place a button underneath that says "Uncle" that can have the invitation animate to the standard 'for dummies' version. 
    If that is asking too much, the button could just email me back asking for translation.  (It would be cool if I could have an autoreply to those messages with some sassy note like 'the idiot assistance office is currently closed but we will respond to your request when we feel like it')
    Can anyone give me some advice?  I am sadly one of those people that knows enough to be danger to herself and others but not enough to know how to do this without hours more browsing for help. 
    (Sorry if this is the wrong forum, btw...!)
    For fun, here is the invite:

  • Need advice on creating 2nd account for child

    Hi,
    I have an iTunes account on my single user Mac that I've been using for years. My son just got an iPod and I want to set up an account for him to be able to download music, movies, apps etc for his use. Is this possible with only a single user account system or do I need to set up a login account for him too? I want to be able to set limits for him too like dollar limits per month, movie rating limits (PG) etc. I see where I can set rating limits for my account but I don't see how those will change when he uses the system.
    Any advice will be appreciated.

    I would suggest you set him up his own user account in Mac OS X. That will be a lot less fuss, and you can use the Parental Controls in Mac OS X and iTunes in his account to control what he can access without having to limit your own use.
    To give him a dollar limit in the iTunes Store, set him up his own iTunes Store account and either buy him prepaid iTunes cards or gift certificates or set him up an allowance. For more information on these options, see:

  • Need Advice on Creating Multi-Language Menus

    Hello Friends,
    I am working on a documentary project that will contain three languages: English, Spanish, German, and Portuguese. There are two spoken-language audio tracks (English and Spanish) and four subtitle tracks (one for each of the above languages).
    The producer wants four sets of menus as well - something I see as potentially daunting. The disc’s initial menu would ask you to choose a language, and then once that choice is made all subsequent menus would appear in that same language.
    That task is easy enough so far, but with four different sets of menus, what happens when the viewer plays the movie, then presses the "menu" button. How does the DVD know which language menu to return to?
    I assume that something might possibly be done with scripting, but I'm new to this aspect of DVD authoring, so any design advice you could give would be much appreciated. Thanks very much!
    - Jordan
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)   2GB "Crucial" Memory

    It is a scripting issue.
    When you select the language on the first menu, make each button go to a script which sets a unique value ionto a GPRM and then sets the audio for the user. When returning to a menu, make the menu button go to a script which reads the value in the GPRM (or uses the audio setting in the player - SPRM1) to go back to the correct set of menus.
    In setting the language from the main menu, use a script like this (assuming the buttons are ordered English, Spanish, German, Portuguese):
    mov GPRM0, SPRM8
    div GPRM0, 1024
    Set System Stream Au(1(English)
    Jump English menu If (GPRM0 = 1)
    Set System Stream Au(1(Spanish)
    Jump Spanish menu If (GPRM0 = 2)
    Set System Stream Au(1(German)
    Jump German Menu If (GPRM0 = 3)
    Set System Stream Au(1(Portuguese)
    Jump Portuguese menu If (GPRM0 = 4)
    This reads the button value the user selected and sets a value accordingly and at the same time sets the correct audio stream. Now, when setting the return to a menu you can use the same value and set up a script like this:
    Jump English menu If (GPRM0 = 1)
    Jump Spanish menu If (GPRM0 = 2)
    Jump German Menu If (GPRM0 = 3)
    Jump Portuguese menu If (GPRM0 = 4)
    You can extend these scripts to get back to the last button on any particular menu as well. These two scripts will be enough to set the audio and get you back to the right menu. If you are using subs as well then it is going to be a case of adding in the relevant lines to activate the correct subtitle... good luck!

  • I need advice on creating SubVIs

    Hi all,
    My code is getting bulky and I have created SubVIs to handle certain tasks. Here is what the code does: take in multiple data file paths from the user, and generate
    data summary tables, and lots of plots (table and plot formats controlled by property nodes) and place objects (tables and formats) on different tabs of a control tab on the FP.
    Here is what I need help with:
    1. Is it a good idea to feed file paths to inputs of a SubVI? The code reads 2D numeric data from data files using Read from Spreadsheet File.vi.
    2. Should I make the input of my SubVI the actual 2D data input instead of file path?
    3. Does it make sense to have graphs, charts, etc. in a SubVI? This is how I have them right now (also feeding references to these plots into the SubVI), but someone suggested that I shouldn't do that.
    For my plots, the legend, X-axis label, and Y-axis lable are read automatically from the file name and updated through property nodes, which is why my SubVI takes in file paths.
    Does it make sense to generate a cluster of properties and feed that into my SubVI?
    Any other thoughts?

    Sure, i do that all the time.
    2. Should I make the input of my SubVI the actual 2D data input instead of file path?
    Why not, make a 2nd sub-vi which uses the data inputs inside the #1 subvi.
    3. Does it make sense to have graphs, charts, etc. in a SubVI? This is how I have them right now (also feeding references to these plots into the SubVI), but someone suggested that I shouldn't do that.
    This is 2 different issues. Having graphs inside a sub-vi is ok for debugging purposes, if never shown they should have no effect later on. Feeding references is a way to update graphs in another VI (presumably main), but i'd recommend returning the data array to main and simply feed the graph there instead.
    For my plots, the legend, X-axis label, and Y-axis lable are read automatically from the file name and updated through property nodes, which is why my SubVI takes in file paths.
    Does it make sense to generate a cluster of properties and feed that into my SubVI?
    3 string inputs are fine. You'll also need the graph ref. I'd make a state or event in the main of it instead.
    Any other thoughts?

  • Need Advice fr/ Graphic Designers/Video Editors about Glossy Screens

    Would like to hear some advice from industry professionals working in Graphic Design and Video Editing about working on a Glossy Screen MBP.
    No offense, but please do not share speculative responses (these forums are notorious for that) I just want people who actually own a glossy screen MBP.
    Many thanks,
    O.

    I do not have a glossy screen MBP (just a matte one), but I had a glossy Toshiba prior to this. I do a lot of 3D, and I definitely prefer the matte to the glossy. The shiny screen gives me headaches after about an hour, and has no major benefits that Apple says they do (except look all shiny and new).
    I'll never buy a glossy lcd again.

  • HELP!! i need advice how to put video to my ipod??

    Anyone help, just got my new ipod & i'm having trouble putting video's on it, i can put them in the video library in itunes but they wont transfer over to the ipod?? any ideas as i'm getting miffed ........

    iPod only support 2 codecs, mpeg4 and h.264, both have to be encased in .m4v .mp4 or .mov files. If your files are not in one of these formats you'll have to convert them and they have to be under the maximum resolution for the format you chose. Videora seems to be the converter of choice for windows users.

I must have accidentally changed something on the settings. (b/c I burned a video once before with FCE and it played in widescreen format). For some crazy reason this video will not play in widescreen and I cannot figure out what I've done wrong. I hate to start the project over, b/c I've spent so much time on it already.
    Hoping it's simple......Can anyone help me?
    Thank you!

  • Need advice on choosing a video card.

    I am in the process of assembling a newer PC for editing & rendering footage primarily from Nikon dslrs.  I have a 5960X chip, Gigabyte GA-99 MB with 24 GB RAM and 512 GB SSD for C: drive.  At NAB I talked with Adobe, Nvidia & AMD reps and I'm still confused on choosing a video card within reasonable cost and the BEST performance!  My choices so far are the AMD 8100 for ~1000$ & Nvidia 2000 for ~350$, 4000 for ~790$, 4200 for ~890$ and can't afford the 6000.  Of my choices which would be the better choice (or your suggestions)?

    None of them. The only sensible choices would be the nVidia GTX 970 or 980.
    See Tweakers Page
    The AMD is twice the price of the 980 and delivers half the performance. The Quadro K4200 is also overpriced and performs no better than the old GTX 660Ti for around € 275.
    Better increase memory to 32 or 64 GB. 24 causes slow performance because of not using the quad channel architecture.
