Problems Flash Media Development Server 4.5

I have just downloaded Flash Media Development Server 4.5 on Windows. This was not an upgrade from 3.5 or 4.0 for example. My problem is when i go to start>Programs>Flash Media 4.5>Start Flash Media Server for some reason i am unable to login but when i go in my web browser i type in localhost URL i can login. Why is this? I think I installed the Flash Media Server correctly any advice would be appreciated.
Thank You in Advance

Hi,
Couple of things :
1. When you say you go to start>Programs>Flash Media 4.5>Start Flash Media Server you're unable to login, where exactly do you expect to login? This only starts your FMS server
2. When you type your localhost in the browser, then the FMS start page is loaded.
3. If you have installed in the default path then your FMS files will be installed in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 4.5. Let me know if you can find them there. If you haven't done a default installation, then check under the path you've provided during installation.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Install Flash Media Development Server on Fedora 12

Hello everyone!
I just installed Flash Media Server in my server with Red Hat Fedora 12 64bits but It does not work. When I go to http://localhost Apache's welcome page comes up instead Flash Media Server's.
I checked the log and there is not errors.
Thanks for your help.

there isn't a welcome page for flash media server you are seeing a webserver .....do you have apache installed? also did you uncheck the box that has apache bundled with FMS? I personnaly don't install the bundled version.

Flash Media Development Server Info

I'm in the process of setting this up and have a question about the limitations. It is limited to ten simultaneous streams. Do the simultaneous streams refer to users or videos? Thanks.

It's the connections limitation, not resources.

RTMP & Flash Media Streaming Server Live application

I'm running Flash Media Streaming Server and have only been serving VOD up until now. I had my network administrator open up port 1935 to the outside world during the setup process and now I can't remember if that was actually required for streaming VOD to clients. Most documentation I've read says that this port should be open, but I seem to recall reading something at one point that suggested it wasn't necessary.
I've just started messing around with publishing live streams using Flash Media Live Encoder to the Flash Media Streaming Server. I have that working without issue but was surprised to find that no authentication is required before a client running the live encoder can publish a stream to the Flash Media Streaming Server. An authentication module is available however it only works with Flash Media Interactive Server and Flash Media Development Server.
If I leave port 1935 open to the outside world, there would be nothing to stop anybody anywhere from streaming video via my server. Anyone else running a default install of Flash Media Streaming Server and with port 1935 open to the outside should see that this is true of their setup as well. I'm wondering if I can safely close port 1935 without limiting the functionality of the server or if there's some way I can require authentication prior to publishing a live stream even though I'm not on the four-and-a-half-times-more-expensive edition of the product.

Now with so many publishers being present its not that trivial to
design single module which would suffice for whole set of
publishers.And according to me blocking all publishers right away and
just allowing FMLE using this plug-in might not be best solution. So it
is best left to the onus of one who is building solution to customise
things according to his own needs.
Bear in mind that not everybody is using FMIS. Users of FMSS didn't buy this product with the expectation of having to build applications and develop plug-ins (in fact, in the case of the former they explicitly cannot do so) - they bought it so that they could have a streaming server. As far as users of FMSS are concerned, I would think, the solution has already been built - by Adobe - and it's been found to be lacking a very basic element.
As it stands, even the authentication add-in that was developed for use with FMLE clients provides no security whatsoever. It would need to be modified in such a way as to permit access only to FMLE and block other client software before it served any useful purpose.
So yes, what I think would be useful would be a change at the protocol level / on the server side. An option to prompt all clients for credentials and allow or deny them access based on their response would be useful. Otherwise server admins will have to know about each and every piece of client software that may wish to publish a stream to their server and then . . . what - make modifications to their authentication module every time a new client pops up? Yes, a central, standard authentication system (like what is employed in pretty much every other client-server system that makes provisions for the requirement of authentication) makes a lot of sense.

How to secure Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (live stream connection)

I have Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (not Interactive) running on RHEL5.5 x86_64 Linux.
All is working well, however how do I prevent unauthorized access to connecting to the live stream and streaming content?
How can I setup the server to require a user and password to stream live media to the server?
Any help would be great, I am new to this product and I have been reading some documentation but I have not found a clear cut answer on how to force a username and password to connect to the server to stream live content only.
I am using the Adobe FMS Apache install, what files need changing?
I have the following files:
/opt/adobe/fms/applications/live
total 44
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 1035 Jul 27 14:52 allowedHTMLdomains.txt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 992 Jul 27 14:52 allowedSWFdomains.txt
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 1550 Jul 27 14:52 Application.xml
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 4371 Jul 27 14:52 main.far
-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 2292 Jul 27 14:52 readme.txt
I want to lock down a person from connecting to the server on the public internet and starting a live stream?
Can this be done with a user name and password?

If you are concerned about anyone starting publishing to your stream then we have security update on this. Please upgrade to 3.5.4 and now you can use FMS Authentication Add-in (used with FMLE as publisher). If you are facing problems with publisher which are not FMLE, please enable SWF Verification so that only valid SWF's connect to your FMS.
You can find 3.5.4 update here : http://www.adobe.com/support/flashmediaserver/downloads_updaters.html
You can find FMS Authentication Add-in on FMLE Download page: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=fmle3 (when you click on Agree - it will prompt for your Adobe ID - then when you reach Download page - you will get Optional Download of Authentication Add-in)

Playback of flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server jerky.

Greetings:
Thanks for taking time to read this.
Here is our problem:
Playback of flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server jerky.
Playback ok if using Flash Player 10.0 with Flash Media Interactive Server.
1. Record live using Flash Media Interactive Server
2. Attempt to play back resulting flv using Flash Player 10.1 and Flash Media Interactive Server.
Video plays ok for a few seconds and then plays faster than as recorded -- very jerky.
Audio plays at normal rate.
OS: Windows 7 64bit (two different machines. All updates installed.)
Web browser: FireFox 3.6.10 and IE8 8.0.7600.16385
Flash version: 10.1.85.3
Tried with hardware acceleration on and off.
Note: Also had another person report the same thing on a Mac.
We had been using Flex 3, so we tried building with Flash Builder 4 – had the same problem.
This is a show stopper for us.
Tried using Wowza and everything worked.
We’re dropping FMIS and switching to Wowza.
If someone can suggest something else to try, we would appreciate it.

Hi Greg,
So if I understand correctly, your findings are:
Flash Player 10.1.85.3 + Flash Media Interactive Server = Jerky Video
Flash Player 10.0.x.x + Flash Media Interactive Server = Smooth Video
Flash Player 10.1.85.3 + Wowza = Smooth Video
And what about Flash Player 10.0.x.x + Wowza?
Also, if you could check the network traffic to confirm if it's Flash Player causing the issue or it is receiving it like that from FMIS.
Cheers

Flash media Encoding Server

I heard that Adobe has launched a new server reffered to as Flash media Encoding Server. In their website they do have explained a lot about it. But they have not mentioned whether it can be used for Live Streaming or not. Does any one know whether it can be used for Live Encoding .. anyone?? How is this server different from Flash Media Server??

Jay is correct - Flash Media Encoding Server is a companion product to Flash Media Server that will encode/transcode files to Flash friendly formats for delivery via Flash Media Server or other forms of delivery. It is not meant for live capture and encode - simply for preparing VOD files for delivery. For more about encoding for Flash and the various Adobe and products in this space for both Live and VOD - you may want to read an article I wrote on our developer center.

Login Problem Flash Media Admin Console

New to FMS, testing FMS Developers versions.
Connect and Live stream works fine using FMLE.
Problem is I'm not sure how to get logged into the Admin Console.
I'm not sure about what the "Server Name" is or the "Server Address". Is that just the IP address or the IP plus something else? How can I tell?
FMS install was done by tech at hosting company and he forwarded this info:
----------- Install Action Summary -----------
Installation directory = /opt/adobe/fms
Flash Media Server Port = 1935,80
Flash Media Admin Server Port = 1111
Apache Install = Yes
Administrative username = ******
Administrative password = ******
service owner = nobody
service user = nobody
service group = nobody
Run as daemon = Yes
Start Flash Media Server = Yes

LATEST UPDATE!!!
Just received this from the tech:
From what I understand, I think port 1111 is an internal communication port and not accessible from the outside..? From the main page, there is a console link which brings you to http://adobe.marunde-muscle.com/fms_adminConsole.htm and from there I think you have to define the parameters to begin managing the installation.
Does this mean anything? Is he/we on the right track?

Upgrade from FMS 3.5 to Flash Media Interactive Server no apps working

I sucessfully upgraded from FMS to FMIS. In the Admin it shows that the license is now Flash Media Interactive Server r405 I believe.
The live and vod services continue to work as expected.
On a separate development server I have developed a number of applications that I want to move to the new production server. Nothing connects at all on the new server. In the Admin, all the applications show as being available.
Is there something I need to do to make it work?
I don't want to post details on line but willing to share if someone can help out?
Boss really wants to make the $4000 upgrade work if you know what I mean...

Thank you. If you don't mind, I would prefer to do it here although I am
happy to post the final results for the thread. I used to work at MM
and Adobe before that so I think there is great value in one to many
support.
1. How did you upgrade - using license file or license keys - i suppose license key?
License key. Just copied and pasted into the server admin's license screen.
2. Did you restart your server after putting in the serial key? If not , please restart, for licensing changes to take place, you need to restart the server.
Yes. I did, but I did it from the admin, not the start and stop applets.
3. If you have restarted and you are facing same issue - can you check your logs and see what error messages are you getting, you can check edge.00.log,core.00.log and master.00.log.
This is from the Edge.log. I am not really sure what it says, but it
coincides with when I entered the key.

4. If I am not mistaken you have upgraded from Streaming Server to Interactive Server, am i right?
Well the name on the screen was Flash Media Server 3.5 It streams just
fine, but I get really confused with all the names of the servers frankly.
5. Also which version of FMS are you using?
3.5
Thank you so much for your help. I am trying not to have to deinstall
the server and reinstall it. If I can avoid that, please let me know.
FWIW, this is the code I used to test to see if the server was accepting
connections to an unsigned app.
package
import flash.net.NetConnection;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.text.TextField;
import flash.events.NetStatusEvent;
public class FMS3Connect extends Sprite
private var nc:NetConnection;
private var rtmpNow:String;
private var msg:String;
private var connectText:TextField;
private var posX:Number;
function FMS3Connect ()
nc=new NetConnection();
nc.addEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
rtmpNow="rtmp://www.letsgoexpo.com/connect";
trace (rtmpNow);
//rtmpNow="rtmpe:/connect";
nc.connect (rtmpNow);
private function checkConnect (event:NetStatusEvent):void
connectText=new TextField();
msg=event.info.code;
connectText.width=250;
connectText.text=msg;
addChild (connectText);
posX=connectText.stage.stageWidth;
connectText.x=100;
connectText.y=175;
Of course it has a little SWF that goes with it, but there isn't
anything there except this.
On the development server this works and shows the connect.
Thanks for your help. I will be checking mail frequently after noon
pacific. I don't know where you are located so I guess you get mail out
whenver you can.

Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5

Hey, I am thinking about making a web site that streams HD movies and videos that I have created myself. I was wonder could you use Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server 3.5 to do so I know i would have to buy a dedicated server and a fast one with a good load of bandwidth. The big question am asking is that can you base a website or content management system around the interactive server.

FMS isn't reall suiatable for serving a website or CMS. I suppose you -could- use the included Apache installation to handle your HTTP traffic, but it would require installing a database, an application server, and whatever else you would need. You'd then need to maintain the installation yourself... FMS doesn't have any sort of package manager to handle updating Apache or anything else you might want to attach to it.
I think you'd be better off using a package manager like Plesk or Cpanel, and let it take care of your httpd server and supporting services. My advice is to just use FMS for purposes that specifically call for it.

Thank you very much...

Java Client for Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server

Hello
Is it possible to connect to a Adobe Flash Media Streaming
Server by a java client?
I need to be able to receive a streamed RTMP flash-video and
implement the following functions:
- PLAY
- PAUSE
- STOP
- GO TO A SPECIFIC POSITION
I need to implement this player on a non-top-level Swing
JComponent in Java (because this is the restriction I have from
sun's wonderland, where I want to implement this player)...
How can I do that in Java? Are there any code examples
available or do you know an API or other possibilities to do that?
Thanks for you help.
Kind regards,
Peter

This is a pretty big question. Is it possible? Probably. In
theory it should. But *normally* the client is based on the flash
player. I believe the protocol is publically available if you want
to roll your own.
But if you are looking for readily available solution, there
is none that I know of.
