Is mp3 support going ot be added to Flash Media Encoder?

Hi everyone,
I work at CNET in the Entertainment division and we recently
launched a full on Flash video player
Example:
http://www.gamespot.com/video/918428/6172011/fallout-3-official-trailer-1
On the side for the past few months we have been testing
On2's Live Flash encoder and Adobe's Flash Media Encoder with
Akamai. Because of features lacking (like de-interlace) in On2's
encode, we have no choice but to use Adobe's encoder.
While there are something I wish would be added like full on
multi-thread support (considering On2VP6 is so CPU intensive),
though that's more of an On2 thing (maybe Adobe can pressure them
since Dual-Core/Quad-Core systems are the norm these days and the
On2VP6 does little to utilize it), one thing that has really urked
us is the choice for the Nellymoser codec to be the only option for
audio in the Flash Media Encoder (and On 2's).
We want to migrate from webcasting in Windows Media to Flash,
but our audience feedback has been horrible with the Flash live
streaming because of the terrible audio codec we are forced to use.
Which leads me to my question --- is there going to be any
updates in the near future to allow us to use mp3 as the audio
codec? We have several machines on order just to handle Flash Live
streaming using Adobe's software and going by user feedback, we
simply cannot do it...so we are gonna have to be forced to have
Windows Media player within our Flash which is going to kill the
user experience.
Anyhow, just hoping to hear a good answer. Have the same
question into On2's support....

I recently read on one of the listservs (not sure which one
it was... maybe the flashcomguru.com list?) that the next version
of FME will use hardware acceleration, so that should alleviate
some of the processor load. Of course, this is third party info I'm
passing along, so take it with a grain of salt.
About MP3, I'm not so sure I'd hold my breath on that one.
Problem is, FME is a free product, so I don't know if Adobe will
see value in shelling out the cash for the licensing required to
support mp3 encoding (money that will never be directly recovered).
They already have the licensing for ASAO, and as I understand
things, that ASAO license is the reason you can only use FME if you
own FMS or have an active account with one of their partner CDN's
Incidentally, this is a user-end forum, and I don't see a
strong presence from the Adobe employees around here (some, but not
a whole lot). If you were using FMS (rather than a CDN) I'd suggest
contacting Adobe support directly, but I've heard that support
requests from non-purchasers tend to fall to the bottom of the pile
indefinitely.

  • AE not adding files to Media Encoder

    Hello,
    My After Effects CC is not adding files to the Media Encoder. I can render using the add to render queue option, but when I try to Add to Media Encoder, it will open Media Encoder but it doesn't add the file the the queue list.
    I've updated AE and Media encoder and that didn't fix it. Running on Mac Yosemite 10.10.2  Does anyone have any suggestion?
    Thanks for your help

    See the known issue here about Adobe Media Encoder taking a very long time to open the first time on Mac OSX v10.10 (Yosemite):
    After Effects with Mac OSX v10.10 (Yosemite)
    Based on this, my suggestion is to open Adobe Media Encoder once, give it plenty of time to start because of this Mac OS bug, and then try again. My guess is that it'll work fine after that.

  • FME & mp3 Support

    Hello,
    I am looking for a version of Flash Media Encoder that will
    allow me to utilize the mp3 audio aspect instead of NellyMoser.
    Where can I get my hands on a version that does this. I will
    willing to drop $100 into the paypal account of whomever leads me
    in the right direction to get this working. We need this ASAP as we

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS4 Suddenly Adding Black Bars To L & R

    I think I may be going crazy.
    Every video I have ever shot has been cropped to 720x340 in After Effects then exported as an uncompressed Quicktime movie file at 720x340.  For the last year I have done this process exactly the same everytime.
    On my website (www.stevenbogda.com) videos are either 360x170 or 480x226 FLV files, both variations of the original 720x340 Quicktime file.  I would just bring a 720x340 file into Adobe Media Encoder CS4, adjust the dimensions and bitrate and export and it would work perfectly.  Now all of the sudden, when I bring anything I shot and exported recently into AME CS4 to get it ready to go on my website, it adds BLACK BARS to the left and right side of my video (refer to image 2).
    I thought it was just a visual problem in AME CS4 until I exported it as the FLV file that I planned on doing, just to find that the actual FLV file is in fact the dimensions I wanted, EXCEPT it has black bars on the right and the left...
    I immediately blamed it on After Effects and started re exporting uncompressed Quicktime files with different settings and managed to get AME to work properly but it was random.  Some videos were exported with "settings 1" and worked in AME but other videos with the same settings didn't work.
    I went to my hard drive where I store my master Quicktime files that were used to make the videos on my site and brought some into AME CS4 and they acted the same way that the new videos I made do, with black bars on the left and right.  These videos worked the way I wanted them to in AME CS4 last month, but now suddenly are doing what my more recent files do and I have no idea why.
    I found out that by lowering the width of the video (refer to image 3) the black bars would dissapear slowly, but then the video would be a smaller width that it should be.  I really think I am just missing something, or set some setting wrong by accident because this never used to happen and now is happening with files that once worked correctly.
    Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated because I am spending way too much time re exporting uncompressed files just to find out they don't work.
    Thank you,
    Steven

    Stan,
    I was using the on2VP6 codec at data rates from 275k to 400k with good results. -- with the new CS$ endcoder i am used h.264 at 500k to 700k, video quality looks good but the graphic overlays look like alised crap. In the encoder settings the edges of the graphics get jaged when I make the field order progresive...
    I am starting with DV NTSC video at 720x480.
    I am going to go back to my old work flow and test it. The settings are a bit different from premiere pro 1.5 to CS4 -- in 1.5 i could export out an unconpressed .mov with square px and then bring that large file to flash media encoder to create the .flv

  • Playing mp3 over RTMP (Flash Media Server)

    I've got some mp3 files that are served from a Flash Media Server.  I want to write a Flex application to play them.  Do I need to use NetConnection/NetStream or can I do it with just the Sound class?  I've got a sample app that can connect to the stream with NetConnection/NetStream but I don't know how to connect the netstream data to something that will actually play the sound.

  • Flash Media Live Encoder alpha channel (chroma keying) support

    Hi,
    When trying to encode live strem with alpha channel (32 bit) using the latest Flash Media Live Encoder (FMLE) I have got no alpha chammel coming out from the encoder heading the FMS.
    Is the new FMLE supports alpha channel encoding?
    Thx.

    Hi,
    Right now FMLE does not support Alpha channel. Its Video encoeder encodes data from YV12 format.
    Even latest release of FMLE is not supporting alpha channel. If you want this to be implemented then you can add this as Enhancement bug in Adobe site for Flash media encoder product.

  • CS4 license marooned on my dead / inaccessible computer. Online Support goes in circles. Can't elevate to human by phone, or by chat. Chat link grayed-out for me. Now what?

    Hello:
    I attempted to follow instructions given by a previous answer that addresses the same problem I have, but without success: Deactivation, cant reach computer it was activated on and Adobe "support" goes in circles and ends up in forum where Adobe cannot deactivate for me
    Following Contact Customer Care did not lead me to chat option that I could spot. I'm sorry if I missed a link that is obvious to everyone but me. Maybe I just need that link pointed out to me more vigorously.
    By the way, this link, What are my contact options? has a chat option, but it is grayed out (at least for me) so that's a dead end.
    So, please explain to me (like I'm a bewildered child) how to get to chat support. I am unable to fill in logical gaps by myself. :-/
    Thank you SO much. :-)
    That's it for my question. The rest is just a boring account of how I struggled to get here. Which I include just in case an Adobe Staff Member would find my customer-experience worth noting.
    I reached Shivangi Moitra (Adobe) [email protected] by sending feedback about the dead-end support loop that I encountered by following the steps here, at www.adobe.com/getsupport. Incidentally, I gave her a detailed description of my deactivation problem too. Shivangi responded by directing me to use the same link that goes in circles! To wit: "The first step for contacting us will be to start online [at www.adobe.com/getsupport]." Of course you notice that this is yet another dead-end circle in the customer support system.
    If my email to Shivangi is a useful reference then here you go!
    I am unable to get online or phone support from Adobe. I need to deactivate CS4 from a dead computer. Adobe online help is defective because it puts the user into an endless loop making it impossible for me to find a solution, and impossible to get support. Please remedy the defect and please call or email me to manually update Adobe's activation database. (Phone and email address redacted.)
    I own a copy of CS4 that is marooned on dead computer. Consequently, I can not deactivate that copy. I know that a single license for Adobe CS4 only lets me install the application on two computers, of which I can only use the application on one computer at a time.
    I need Adobe to manually deactivate my earliest CS4 installation from its servers so that I can activate CS4 again when my new computer dies so that my work flow is not interrupted by the unavoidable (meaning eventual) breakdown of my next computer.

    Is the .sh install facility going to be added to Solaris 11 since the IPS is not ready?

    I don't know what ".sh install facility" means.
    I don't what you mean when you say "IPS is not ready".
    Can you explain in more detail?
    As far as I know IPS will definitely be the packaging system for Solaris 11.
    ------------- Edit ----------------
    Ooops, I thought you were talking about Solaris 11, but you are probably talking
    about the Studio installer. Adding a .sh-based installer on Solaris 11 is technically
    possible. I'm not really in a position to say for sure if it will be done or not.
    We are actively working on making SS12.2 available in IPS, but it's not there yet.

  • H264 and mp3 support in VLC needed ? streaming.ffmpeg

    I have found that I need to VLC (video-lan-client) with mp3 support so I used the cvs version of ffmpeg in the  AUR packages but this doesn't seem to support H264 video.
    How do I add H264 support to the PKGBUILD so I can have both. ?
    Any help greatly appreciated I can stream H264 with current version of ffmpeg but no audio
    Then with the ffmpeg-cvs no audio or video.
    This is the same if I am streaming or playing locally.
    Cliff

    You'll need to install GPAC in order to build ffmpeg with H264 support. I don't believe it compiles properly without it. I couldn't find gpac in any of the repositories or AUR so your best best would be to write a pkgbuild yourself or make a request for  someone in the AUR request forum to do it for you.
