Rtmp not connecting, sample video not streaming

I am developing an application in Flash that runs locally and it uses FMS 4.01, locally. I have been using adobe FMS 4.01 for months with no problem. Today I cannot connect to my server and I cannot even play the sample video on the Flash Media Server Start Screen. The sample video for the http plays after I changed the permissions for flash, but rtmp does not play. I have reinstalled the server; 3.5, 4.0 and 4.01, none of them will connect to rtmp. I receive this error on the flash media server start screen that says "the connection timed out". How do I fix this?please help!

Can you just check if your firewall is turned on and blocking 1935? Also are you trying to play RTMP using Start Screen from same machine where FMS is installed or from any other machine?

When using RTMP, only the sample files will stream?

I am using the exact same code and placing the f4v file in the same directory that the sample files are in, but if I change the name on the file it will not stream, connection error! Only plays the sample files?

Hi,
Firstly I wanted to clarify if you're gertting a connection error, i.e you're not able to make a connection to the application itself, or if you're getting an error when you try to play your stream (like Stream Not Found)?
Since you've mentioned that you're able to play sample files, I'm assuming that you're able to make connections to the application successfully.
Coming to the problem with playback of custom media, are you using the sample vod application to playback your files or are you copying the code into a different application and then using that?
If you have copied the files from vod into a custom application then the application specific virtual directory mapping for recorded streams still points to that under the vod application. So you're able to play the sample files as they are present under root_install/applications/vod/media (the default media location for vod app) but not your f4v files placed in custom_application/media directory, as it is not looking in that folder.
To point the virtual directory to a custom location, in the Application.xml of your application either change/add the following tag with the folder path :
<Application>
          <StreamManager>
                    <VirtualDirectory>
      
      <Streams>/;${VOD_COMMON_DIR}</Streams> //default. Can be removed
      <Streams>/;${VOD_DIR}</Streams>                   //default. Can be removed
      <Streams>/;path_to_your_media_folder</Streams>      //add this
                    </VirtualDirectory>
          </StreamManager>
After this Resart FMS and retry. You should now be able to play your media.
The same holds for the live application. The folder where the published streams are mapped points to the live application folder. If you have a custom application you can edit this path the same way.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Upgrade FMS2 - Streaming Server 3.5 - Video not streaming - NetConnection.Connect.Rejected

I have Flash Media Server 2 set up with a simple bandwidth detection application (with serverside code), and a videoplayer application (no serverside code). I have upgraded to Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 and have managed to successfully get video to stream using the basic examples on the startup screen both locally and from another machine. However, when I try and connect to either the bandwidth detection application, or the videoplayer I get the error message:
NetConnection.Connect.Rejected
[ Server.Reject ] : (_defaultRoot_, _defaultVHost_) : Application (**my appname**/) is not a valid signed application; loading access denied.
I saw another post in this forum saying that for custom applications you need Flash Media Interactive Server instead of Streaming Server. This worries me as I'm quite far down this route now and don't want to tell my boss that actually we need to find another £2k to make this a viable solution! But looking at the credentials of Flash Media Streaming server (http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/compare/), it seems to be that what I want to do is viable. At worst I would have thought that only the bandwidth application would be a problem as it has serverside code. But even so, the Streaming Server apparently does have bandwidth detection. How does this work then?
By having the Steaming Server am I somehow tied into Adobe video players if I want to use the streaming capabliities? Am I not able to have my own named application? Or is it simply likely that there is some setting somewhere I have missed which is causing the error.
Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm struggling to get to the root of these answers on my own.

You just need to define handlers specially onBWDone on client side to do Bandwidth detection. Just check example "Bandwidth" in documentation/samples/Bandwidth/Bandwidth.as.
Since you are using VOD, i think you can just pass "true" as second parameter when you make nc.connect call in you client side and VOD application would make call to checkBandwidth and would call onBWDone when it finishes bandwidth detection. Read more about this in Client API documentation in SSLR.pdf and Dev_Guide.pdf.
Also Adobe has come with advanced Bandwidth detection which you can do using client-side Flash Player API's - Please check this link for more info:http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashmediaserver/articles/dynstream_on_demand.html
Also you can NetStreamInfo documentation which should be present in AS3LR (check documentation folder of FMS)

IPAd does not stream video to ATV2 via Airport Extreme

I have a home wireless network based on an Airport Extreme. The network is not connected to the internet but used for streaming media from my MacBook and my IPad to an Apple TV (2nd Gen). The firmware in all components is up to date.
The IPad will not stream video to the ATV, it does stream music. The MacBook streams music & videos.
I can stream video from the IPad to an ATV on another wireless network in another place which uses a Netgear modem router.
Seems to me that there is a problem with the Airport Extreme which allows the MacBook videos through but not those from the IPad. I occasionally get the following message on the IPad "Airplay cannot play video on Apple TV" Apple support have not been able to solve the problem

Have you checked that the software on the AppleTV has been updated to the latest version?

After firefox update it will not stream video, explorer will on the same system, what is the problem?

Firefox notified me that an update was available to install and after this install was complete I could not stream video from any site. I was instructed to clear my browser cache, I did ti no avail. I updated Adobe Flash and exhausted the extent of my troubling abilities w/o causing any major system unrest. I accessed the same video steam through explorer on the same system, but firefox is a far superior browser and I like to solve this problem to avoid having to find another browser.
Please advise

I have the same problem. After the upgrade, my wifi is greyed out, and the battery won't hold a charge long. I reset all the settings, tried all the things suggested by Apple, but it didn't work. I took the phone to Verizon, but they said they can't fix it, go to Apple
I made an appointment at the Genius bar, where the staff was incredibly rude and dismissive. A representative told me that the wi-fi is broken and I would need to buy a new phone for $200, because mine is out of warranty. I'm due for an upgrade in a few months, so I'm not going to pay $200 for another 4S now. I'm also not going to buy any more Apple products. Their upgrade caused this problem, and they are not standing behind their producet.

Media Manager not playing sample video

I have tried everything in the existing threads to get this working, added a pin, ran the update, uninstall and reinstall. I can play music and see pictures, but the "new" video feature does not work. I suspect a lot of people are having this issue and was wondering if there was a fix or patch in progess.

I'm having the same problem. Some of the videos do work on my TV, the sample video for one. But a bunch of them just say session timed out when I try to click on them.

Hard Reset the iPod as below- this does not delete or erase any song or data.
After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the next step
Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
Then release the buttons

Video Audio will not stream via express

Hi - Using iTunes, I am able to stream music and podcast audio to my Apple Hi-Fi speakers via Airport Express. However, VidoeCast, TV Shows and purchased movies will not stream... am I doing something wrong? Is there a workaround?
hevans

Streaming movie audio only is quite different from streaming both audio and video. The problem comes in the prebuffering that's necessary to keep the audio from skipping, which makes the audio lag behind the video. To keep them in sync, the AirTunes protocol would have to be considerably more complex: iTunes would have to be able to advance the video ahead of the audio by a predictable amount to ensure that they don't fall out of sync. I can see Apple's point for not supporting it since the Express is intended as an audio device and was never intended for the audio associated with video.

WWHEN I CONNECT MY VIDEO CAMERA TO THE MAC, IMOVIE DOES NOT RECONIZE IT SO IT GOES STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER. I AM TRYING TO DOWNLOAD VIDEO IN IMOVIE. SOME OF THE DISC WILL GO TO IMOVIE OTHERS STRAIGHT TO DVD PLAYER

When I connect my video camera to the mini mac in order to download into imovie it goes directly to dvd player and I can't download into imovie. It does not reconize a camera being connected. This does not happen all the time. Is something wrong with the disc or the camera???

It sounds like it is mistaking the camera for a DVD disk. So my best follow-up question is to ask:
1. Who is the manufaturer of your camera
2. What is the model number of this camera.
What happens when you quit DVD player. Does iMovie still fail?

Can not stream full hd videos from iPhoto macbook library

Hello,
for some reason I can not stream full hd videos from my macbook iphoto libary to apple tv3! It streams 720p videos but full hd videos taken by my camcorder are unable to watch on my apple tv, if I want to stream it directly from iphoto on my macbook.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thank you and greetz from the Black Forrest / Germany

Hi. My camera is a Canon 600D. And yes my videos are stored in the Aperture library and they are not referenced. Even then I tried to select all the videos in Aperture and clicked 'consolidate masters' and there was a messge that said all 'none of the files are referenced',... so they didn't need consolidating.
I also tried preferences> export> external video editor > choose > iMovie. And then right click on the video to edit with imovie. Even then the video didn't show up in iMovie. It seems like the only option for me is to import the videos directly to iMovie which means there will be two versions of the same file stored in my computer eating up space.
APPLE. What are you doing?

HT201317 My iPhone is not streaming pictures to my ipad

What do I doooooooo. My iPhone is not streaming pictures to my ipad

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
If this doesn't help you may need to reset photo stream. You can do this at icloud.com by clicking on your name in the top right corner and then the advanced settings in the pop-up dialogue box that appears.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.
Photostream when enabled will only add photos from the camera roll that were taken post photostream activation. (Photostream does not currently share video)

Can control desktop via devices, but not streaming TO devices?

Just got "Remote" app, and have iTunes on my PC/desktop. I've turned on Home Sharing on both desktop iTunes and on iPad 3 and iPhone 5. I can browse iTunes just fine from devices, and control my desktop just fine from here in another room, but the music is not streaming to devices as I believe it should.
What step am I missing? In "Settings" in both remote devices, I don't see a "More" option in either "Music" or "Videos" like the online instructions say.
Suggestions?
Thanks

Hi
+"Is it possible that my computer at work only accepts incoming connections but can't connect to the outside?"+
Yes. Some network environments (typically Windows Active Directory/ISA Servers) block outbound VPN and/or VNC connections. I have known this at a number of sites I support. Especially educational sites where you may be dealing with more than one filter/proxy. Outbound connectivity may be allowed locally but may be blocked further upstream.
Has it ever worked? If it has in the past and it's not working now that may be because your home IP address (external one) has changed? Residential IP addresses are generally dynamically assigned. You may want to consider logmein instead? This makes connectivity possible via standard http ports.

Youtube App Not Streaming/Buffering.

Hello all, this is my first post, just got the ipod touch, amazing gadget!
Right, everything is working fine, i am getting a constant 100% signal from my wireless router setup all the time. However, the built in Youtube App in the ipod touch will not stream and buffer any Youtube videos at all. It will try to play the video's on Youtube, but ends up stopping all the time after about a few seconds. I have a 10mb internet connection.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks.

Hello, yes youtube works superb on my Notebook, i get a 100% signal all the time, as i do on my main pc upstairs.
Now here's the thing, i went round my cousins last night, connected to her wireless network, and youtube streamed perfectly, so then, we can assume it is my wireless router, it's working fine, but maybe needs tweaking in its settings?
Can anyone give any pointers at which area to look at?
Thanks,
C.

Apple TV syncs but does not stream- Article: TS1447 not helpful

My content does not stream from my Mirror Door computer. I have read the article listed above but System Preferences, Sharing does not offer the firewall setup posted, even though it was posted December 08.
When I first set this up it worked fine now it syncs and does not stream. I have hard rebooted the Apple TV, I have disconnected it from my current iTunes and then went through the process of re-associating it with my iTunes. All are most recent versions. Everything works fine except for the portion of streaming from my computer. I have not a clue! Any ideas? Is there a preference file I should delete?
Setup: Mirror Door connected to the new Extreme N.
*The Sharing panel does not have a Firewall option.*
This is the article:
Apple TV: Data does not sync or stream after entering passcode
Last Modified: December 02, 2008
Article: TS1447
Old Article: 305287
Symptoms
Once you have entered the passcode from the Apple TV on your Mac or PC to establish a syncing or streaming connection, the sync or steam of content may not work.
Products Affected
Apple TV
Resolution
This can result from a firewall being enabled on your Mac or PC. If you have a firewall enabled, please make the following adjustments:
On a PC
Make sure the firewall is configured to allow TCP connections on port 3689. This will allow the transfer of content for syncing and or streaming to your Apple TV. If you use Windows Firewall, see "iTunes for Windows: Music Sharing With Windows Internet Connection Firewall " for detailed steps. If you use other firewall software, check the documentation for that software on how to open port 3689.
On a Mac
Open the Sharing System Preference (choose Apple > System Preferences and then choose View > Sharing).
Click on Firewall.
In the "Allow" field make sure the "iTunes Music Sharing" check box is checked. This will allow the transfer of content for syncing and or streaming to your Apple TV.
If you use other firewall or internet protection software, check the documentation for that software on how to open TCP connections on port 3689.
Note: If you use "fast user switching" on a Mac with firewall enabled you'll need to enable additional ports to allow streaming to Apple TV. If you don't, only the first user will be able to stream to Apple TV. For one additional user enable TCP port 49152. For each additional user, open the next incremental port (49153 for three users, 49154 for four users, 49155 for five users, etc.).
Follow these steps to add the necessary ports:
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Sharing.
Click the Firewall tab.
Click New.
From the Port Name pop-up menu, choose Other.
In the TCP Port Number(s) field, type in:
491452, 49153
This example allows for a total of three users. If you need more, enter the additional number(s) as described in the note above. If you need fewer, just enter the first number.
In the Description field type in: Extra Apple TV streams
Click OK.

Click on the greyed out library and a dialogue telling you the library is unavailable will appear with an option to disconnect, I haven't actually tried this since if it does what I think it does it will delete my registration.
You may want to try the 'change library' option I mentioned before for the synced library, it may avoid you having to resync everything over.
Sync and stream are initiated from different ends, streaming doesn't work because you have changed your libraries and the tv no longer recognises them. I assume you moved your libraries over to your new mac, when you sync from itunes it uses the info from before you moved it and of course the tv is still the same tv so itunes recognises it and it will sync.
