Something causes video to skip with FMS if we are starting our player after we started a stream with

Hi, I'm playing live stream supporting FMLE from FMS. There is no problem with playing if we are starting at first the player and then we are starting the stream with FMLE. The video skipping problem is occurs only if we are starting first the stream with FMLE and than our player.
The versions: FMLE 3.0.1.5963, FMIS 4.0.0, Flash Player 10.1.53.64, and codec h.264
Is this a bug in FMS/FMLE or I'm doing something wrong?
Regards, kissk

Ideally order of publish and play should not matter - i mean whichever way it should work fine. When you say video skipping problem what do you exactly mean - you mean you get only audio, also are you playing live or DVR stream?

Firstly I updated my ipad into ios7 and after watching the video by Apple, iWork, pages and numbers are free for download after updating iOS 7. How can I download iWork pages and number for free?

stevejobsfan is correct; iwork for ios is free only for new purchases of new ios devices. A good work around (if you have wifi connectivity) is going to the icloud website on your ipad, and working on your document.
A word of caution (the real reason I am responding to your post). If you do a lot of 'formatting' of a document on iwork for mac, and then save it in icloud; you will probably loose most of the formatting you have done (this will be true if you oppen the document in iwork for ios; also) It happened to me, and I did not duplicate the document before saving it to icloud; I lost at least an hours worth of work.

ITunes songs cause video to skip in iMovie

Hi, this is a new problem I never used to have. ANY iTunes songs I've ever bought and downloaded, when imported into iMovie to provide music for my video, cause the video images to skip. I think because it's ACC protected music, but come on! I paid for it, can't I use it in my movies? Can I change my songs to MP3s, and if so, how? would that solve the problem if I re-imported them in that format?
It never used to do this to me. It used to import music files fine.
Thanks for any help.

In addition to Bengt's solution, if you don't want to take the time to make a CD and import it back into iTunes, you can use Wiretap Pro(free version) to record whatever music or sound you want. It creates an audio file (AIFF) that can easily be put into iMovie. It is great if you just want to have a portion of a song in your movie clip. I have also used it to add sound to a still photo inserted into the video. I find it faster and easier than 'extracting audio.' This neat little app also avoids any audio glitch using 'pasteover.' I record just what I want and save it to the desktop, then just drag it directly into my iMovie's audio track.
You can find more information and download it here WireTap Pro

I would like to be able to start typing a URL directly (with no need to clear the field first) after opening a new tab with my homepage...

I've just installed the newest desktop version of the Firefox browser because my Opera doesn't feel very well these days. I'm trying to become friends with Firefox, and that's why I've changed the new tab settings in order to have my offline homepage loaded every time I open a new tab. There is an inconvenience — when I press Ctrl+T, the cursor appears at the end of the URL. It means that when I start typing, the letters show in the address bar after the URL of my homepage, so what I need is to clear the field first.
Is there a way to get rid of this? (If it helpes, I'm currently using Windows 7.)
I would appreciate if I could just press Ctrl+T, type a URL, and press Enter when I want to go to a website different from my homepage. Thank you for your replies!

Then you can use (Ctrl+L and) Ctrl+A to select all the text in the location bar or Shift+Home/End.

WLAN disconnect after 20 minutes of streaming with AirTunes

Hi,
I’m using the AirTunes-Feature to stream my music form my computer to my amplifier. I’m working with a Lenovo (IBM) Thinkpad T61 with Windows XP SP2.
The streaming works well for about 20 minutes. After that my WLAN network-interface disconnects form the WLAN. I have to use the windows repair function to get iz restarted.
I’ve already disabled all energy-saving settings, updated the WLAN driver and disabled the firewall but the problem still remains. Maybe this problem isn’t really related to iTunes, but perhaps someone in this forum has an idea anyway...
Thanks a lot and best regards from Hamburg,
Dirk

If it's every 20 minutes, that sounds like some kind of timer setting.
So look for any kind of setting that is 20 minutes?

HT2492 I can't stop the widgets appearing with every click of the mouse! Even after re starting!!

Please help

Which Mac are you using?
System Preferences/Expose & Spaces/Expose/Dashboard - check your mouse settings. I am using a Macbook Pro and my mouse setting is "Mouse Button 3."

Unable to synch or stream with Windows Vista

I got my Apple TV box yesterday and it was a great experience to setup the box with my Wi-Fi and TV. Also to pair it with iTunes was super easy. Unfortunately Apple TV wont synch or stream with my two PC who both running Vista. Anybody similar issues?

This seems to be a really common problem with Vista. I have been trying for weeks to get it to work; sometimes it syncs a little, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it appears in the Devices list, sometimes it doesn't and sometimes it appears for a few seconds and then disappears. I find that, if I disable the Ipod Service and the ItunesHelper service and then restarts Itunes, I get a better, albeit still unreliable, connection but still rarely will it sync.
Tried it with Windows Firewall on, off and all points in between in terms of opening the requisite ports. Tried it with iTunes 7.2 and still no better. Tried resetting the Apple TV numerous times at various stages of this marathon.
What I have NOT tried yet is to completely remove iTunes 7.1.1 AND Quicktime and then reinstall everything and that will be tonight's exercise.
I am currently connecting and syncing quite happily from my girlfriend's Toshiba laptop so there is definitely no problem with the Apple TV.
I will post the results of my iTunes reinstallation attempt once I have it.
Has anyone got a working Vista implementation that we can discuss?

Making P2P Video Chat with FMS

Hi, I'm trying to make a P2P video chat application with Flash Builder 4.5 and Flash Media Server 4.5.
First, I've tried a simple sample application using Cirrus(Stratus). It worked very well!
NetConnection -> NetGroup -> 2 NetStreams -> netstream play and publish -> last, netgroup post
The sample was all OK.
But now, I've changed the server url to my flash media development server.
rtmfp://p2p.rtmfp.net/XXXXXXXXXXXXXX -> rtmfp://my-fms/application
Here is my application trace log about NetStatusEvent:
[object NetConnection] NetConnection.Connect.Success
[object NetConnection] NetGroup.Connect.Success
[object NetStream] NetStream.Play.Reset
[object NetStream] NetStream.Play.Start
[object NetStream] NetStream.Publish.Start
[object NetConnection] NetStream.Connect.Success
[object NetConnection] NetStream.Connect.Success
I couldn't get events about NetGroup and NetStream any more!!!!
When using Stratus, It worked well...
I am not familiar with FMS.. did I skip something in FMS setting?

Hi,
Thanks for trying RTMFP.
When you made your own application on the development server, did you make any server side scripting on this application or is this a blank application ? The point here is that, for P2P, the Cirrus server has a server script that takes care of bootstrapping one client to the other, which in your case (after moving to your server) is not happening. You need to probably add the scripting for bootstrapping one client to the other.
The following resources can help :
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSa4cb07693d1238 84520b86f312a354ba36d-7ffe.html#WSa4cb07693d123884520b86f312a354ba36d- 7ff9
I think I have a similar problem. I am using FMS 4.0 and I can't receive any NetGroup event except NetGroup.Connect.Success. There is no events as NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect or NetGroup.Posting.Notify. I made a discussion (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4429330#4429330) and one of the Adobe employees wrote that I don't need to write any bootstrapping (any server side code):
Chandan_Abhishek worte:
You don't have to implement any server side code. Just keep a blank app on the server and make two client side apps.
Can please someone explain, do I have to write any server side code or not? Do I have to bootstrap clients or not?

Choppy Video/Audio with FMS 2

Hello,
My internet group and I have been trying to get the bugs
worked out of our system so our Flash Media Server (version 2.0)
will work correctly. The latest issue under our load test was
choppy video and audio. The load test was to see if our network and
hardware could handle 15 concurrent connections and of course
something caused the test to fail. Our network and server engineers
say their stuff all checked out only used 20% of network bandwidth
at the most. The server barely hit 5% CPU usage. It has been
suggested a few different times to incorporate a buffer. I don't
really want to do this, because it seems to be a patch on a problem
somewhere. Plus, I also read that buffers in streaming video are
somewhat irrelevant because as soon as the user seeks forward or
backward the buffer is dumped, which would put me right back in the
boat with choppy video again until the server is able to establish
another buffer while streaming the video.
Here is some info on the video we used for test:
- 400kb per second
- On2 VP6 Codec
- Frames per second (same as source) (video was ripped from
dvd quality quicktime file.)
- 96kbps audio
- 720 x 480 video size (The reason we went so large on the
video is because we wanted to test a “worse case
scenario” if a video that size were ever requested we would
know if it was possible.)
- Running on Windows 2003 server and FMS v2.0
Here are my questions:
1. Shouldn't the FMS stream a video of this size to 15
concurrent connections without experiencing any kind of lagging or
choppy video?
2. Should I incorporate a buffer into the video to smooth
over the choppy places?
Thank you for your help!
Eric

Good to know...I have to admit that it is a little difficult
to find good tutorials on this kind of stuff. I've spent the past 3
hours trying to find a tutorial on how to get the "dual buffer"
technique with FLVPlayback since FLVPlayback seems to be the option
that Adobe steers most people to use. Maybe because that's the
easiest way to get video up and running for new comers (like myself
to flash video) like the Spry stuff in Dreamweaver. I've never used
the Spry stuff because I hear it's bulk, plus I already know how to
create most of that stuff with only what I need. It sounds like Net
Stream is the way to go, but will require more work to get the end
result I want.
Obviously, I don't know much about the whole streaming video
stuff, but I guess I'll be considered an expert if I can ever get
this FMS utilized properly and my Net Stream up and running. My
understanding when we bought this server was that it was pretty
much plug'n play and the FMS ensured smooth video playing with no
problems. I didn't know I had to do all this...
Thanks again fmslove!

You can't use iMovie to create a video DVD - for that you need iDVD:
Why is there no iDVD on my new Mac? How do I get it and how do I install it?
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3673
To burn a DVD with iDVD from the latest version of iMovie, you have to export the movie using the Export button and select 480p as the size. Open iDVD and start a new project, then drag that exported movie file into the iDVD menu window, avoiding any drop zones you see.

Something causing a tiny jitter/slowdown in video playback...

I have tried MPlayer, totem movie player, vlc, xine, you name it-- every somewhere between 20-40 seconds in a .avi/.mpg, there's a tiny little few frames dropped, it's the briefest thing but it happens many times through a half-hour or hour episode or two hour movie
I have looked at my running processes, I even played video right at log in with zero startup apps, am using fluxbox. I can't figure this out. I have a P4 3.4ee, 1.2gb ram, 7600 gs 512mb card, 2 x 320gb sata drives, can't be the hardware I am confident as it plays back perfectly otherwise.
It seems it's just something causing it to lose a few frames or something at these random intervals?? I'm completely out of ideas, I've been testing with so many different video files for the last couple of days, finally thought I'd post before I found the solution, but alas I cannot
EDIT: I just tried the "xv" video output in Xine player and watched a tv episode (.avi), I noticed that it is almost every 1 minute that it does this little tiny frame drop/jitter. Could it be some process doing something at 1 minute intervals? I have an empty cron.

Well it's amazing, the simplest answer is usually right, albeit the one most often overlooked! (At least by me;))
I had a random, Einsteinian thought to kill conky and whaddaya know, my video is playing superbly thus far I hope anyone that runs into this can reference this should they also be running conky. It normally takes up no cpu, but the flickering of it apparently randomly has the effect on the video.

Multicast video player with FMS 4.0

I am trying to create a video player in Flash Builder using the new Flash Media Server 4.0 capabilities but I am not able to. The only thread I've seen out there is regarding the P2P player which is not what I want as seen here:
http://www.swfgeek.net/2010/08/10/multicast-streaming-in-flash-player-10-1-revisited/
I want to create a custom player that can retrieve a multicast broadcast.

The QT movie opened promptly for me in Firefox 4.0. The fact that it's intermittent for you with FF indicates that it's a connection issue and not an iWeb issue. For some reason not all of the files are being loaded by FF at those times. (The server is probably being run by an Ohio State graduate )
OT
Go Blue!
Note: using Quicktime for you slide presentation will exclude all those users from the dark side who don't have Quicktime installed on their PCs. You might look into a java based method for the presentation. There are lots of them out there. With the free Jalbum you have over 100 themes/skins to choose from.

My MacBook Pro gets really hot when I open a video file of any kind and the video starts lagging and the image fades away, also with anything that starts the fan. Is extremely hot on the left upper corner. Is there something I can do about it?

Record video with FMS, but distribute progressive - with HTTP

My application is going to serve around 200K simultanios
users. I can spend some money on FMS for the purpose of recording
video using Flash only (I mean w/o additional SW on the client).
But when it comes to serving the video, the cost of FMS is beyond
what I can afford. Therefore, I was thinking to use FlashPlayer/FMS
to record Audio/Video using the built-in Camera class in the Flash
Player and move the encoded file that's been store on FMS, to an
HTTP server. My viewers will play, in their Flash Player, simple
progressive video off of HTTP server (instead of streaming video
off of FMS).
Is it doable? What server-side SW is required to move the
recorded video to another HTTP server?
Any piece of info would be appreciated.

When you open iMovie look at the switch under the screen. You will see a camera on the left of the switch and scissors on left. Flip the switch to the camera and the built in camera should come on. Then on the screen it will say record with isight. That starts the record.

Rendering causes video to de-sync with audio

So, I'm a fan of making lets play videos. I got everything all recorded with my face cam and a separate audio track to put over that. I synced up the tracks so that they both match up and I have the better audio for my voice instead of what my camera picked up. So, the audio is perfectly synced up with the video. However, If I use any of the render settings like Render In to Out, it causes the video clip (just from my camera, game play footage is just fine) to become de-synced with both audio files. The original clip and the one recorded with my mic. Even stranger. Both audio tracks line up perfectly with each other, the video clip just seems to have moved and I cannot figure out why. I also think that rendering during export works perfectly fine without any kind of distortion (not that I have tested it to make sure). Any theories as to why the program is acting like this?

glad that got to the bottom of it, yeah, you can copy a clip and then paste attributes like the last commenter said to fix the distort issue. you might also try removing the distort and basic motion attributes if you're going to your native codec and haven't animated or blown anything up. but just for future reference, there is no special default final cut sequence setting. whenever you start out on a new one, you should double check to see what kind of sequence you've created. three ways to go about that (there are more):
1) the most basic way is in the Final Cut Pro -> Easy Setups... menu option, or if you want more options, then Final Cut Pro -> Audio/Video Settings... option. those both control the same things, but in different ways. play around in that if you're not familiar with it. but what you set there will be the "default" for new sequences that you create.
2) if you've already got a sequence in your project that you know is correct, you can duplicate that then delete all the stuff in there and start with that.
3) if you fire up a sequence, then drop a clip in that matches the native codec you want to work with, Final Cut will ask if you want to change the sequence settings to match the clip (unless you've turned that warning off). that'll ensure that you're working in the native codec of your footage, if that's what's desired.
you might want to start fresh with a new sequence after having done that and then pasting everything you've done into that as opposed to changing the sequence settings on the other one. it might work fine, but it also could have some glitchiness if you don't start with a fresh sequence. final cut is badass, but sometimes a little tempermental when you start tweaking the technical settings (even if you get it right).

Something causes video to skip with FMS if we are starting our player after we started a stream with
