Storing streams as files

Hello.
I am pretty much a stranger to Adobe FMS, but i hope someone can take the time to answer what i hope is a simple question:
Is there a way to save FMS streams as files, such as AVI, MPEG or MP4?
/M@s

Yes - you can save stream files. You can either save them as FLV (which supports VP6 & Sorenson Video codec, Nellymoser,Speex & mp3 as audio codec) OR F4V/MP4 (H.264,VP6,Sorenson as Video codec & NellyMoser,HE-AAC,AAC as audio codecs). There is one more format called RAW in which you can record your files. But to answer in short yes it does record in MP4 format
AVI is not supported format

Firefox 3.6 not compatible with home directories stored on AFP file server

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have discovered, at least in my situation, that Firefox 3.6 does not work with user home directories stored on AFP file servers.
My network consists of PPC 10.411 clients and a Mac OS X 10.62 server. User home directories are stored on the server, the user is logged into a "Golden Triangle" LDAP domain, where the Mac clients bind to a OSX Server and the OSX Server is a member of the Active Directory domain.
Worked perfectly fine on Firefox 3.57, now in 3.6 it will either not launch, will freeze with the beachball or will only show the Firefox window and not the main web browser.
This has happened before with a 3.0x update from a few months ago. I have posted a bug in the Bugzilla database and have outlined the bug on my personal MacPCSMB blog.

There is an update on the FireFox hosted AFP issue that I have uncovered:
When users are rolled back with Firefox 3.57 (by installing FF 3.57 over 43.6) the following issue occurs:
You launch Firefox and you get an error that states "XML scripting is not working; Firefox cannot open the window".
This basically means that the plug-ins for Firefox 3.6 are still in the user's Firefox profile directory. These new plug-ins are not compatible with Firefox 3.57. You will have to manually go into the user's home directory and remove their profile folder and extract a specific file. The issue is that the user will have to be able to have access to their bookmarks. If you delete the profile folder their bookmarks are gone, though that is simpler to do.
It looks like Mozilla significantly changed the profile folder setup in FF 3.6, so a profile rollback or deletion is necessary.
If you DO NOT have a good backup:
To solve this issue do the following. This guide assumes you have the users home directory stored on an AFP server and you have open directory logins:
1. The Firefox profile is located here according to Mozilla: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles . The Mac OS X Directory is located at /~username/library/application support/Firefox.
2. Find and COPY the places.sqlite file. This is the Firefox bookmarks and history database. This file is very important to back up.
3. Now take the user's Firefox profile and TRASH it.
4. Now either have the user launch Firefox with their Open Directory login, or change their password and login yourself. Open Firefox and then after it full loads quit the program. Copy the places.sqlite file back into the Firefox profile folder. You will have to do this manually for every user unless if you make an AppleScript to take care of this.
5. The program will now work again.
The second option is to go into Retrospect or Time Machine (or whatever backup solution you use) and restore the user's profile direct to a point in time before Firefox was updated to 3.6 and then subsequently reverted back to 3.57. How to use backup software is way beyond the scope of this blog posting.

Relatively new user of Adobe LR5 and PS CC, about a year old.
If they should be stored somewhere beside the folder that contains the originals, where and how to change the settings?
If I choose to write metadata to the original files, is that sidecar files or does the XMP file show separately?
To be honest, I usually find a video and I cannot figure this out. I have never received an answer on any of my questions by the way.

You answered a prior question from me so I wanted to reach out to you about this. I just need a step by step on how, if possible, to View LRCC on my MacBookPro when the main interface is on my iMac

Unable to stream SMIL files unless the html page, swf file and the smil ffile are on the FMS server.

When I place the .swf, smil and http files on the FMS server the SMIL stream test sample works fine
But When I move the files to my web server I get Connection error.
This is the same issue discussed in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/554107
I added a ‘base’ variable but it did not work for me.
The SMIL file has the correct path to the sample files and FMS server
<meta base="rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/" />
I am able to stream files from my html file on my webserver not the FMS server by pointing to the FMS server at rtmp://200.200.200.23/vod/mp4:sample1_1500kbps.f4v
Is this a domain security setting? If so, where do I change it?
If not How do I get FMS to stream SMIL files without installing a webserver with FMS?
Thanks,

Hi,
I think there is bug with that videoPlayer.swf which is used by index.html of webroot folder of FMS to play media files, its not able to parse smil file correctly. I used some other player and used the smil file and kept it on http server other than fms server so it was able to dynamically stream videos. So I would suggest you to create your own player which uses smil file. You can take help from the below link to create player:

Streaming of files (doc/pdf/xls)

hi,
          i try to stream a file like this:
          FileInputStream fileIn = new FileInputStream("d:\\test.doc");
          int length = fileIn.available();
          byte[] b = new byte[length];
          fileIn.read(b, 0, length);
          ServletOutputStream op = response.getOutputStream();
          response.setContentType("application/msword");
          op.write(b, 0, length);
          when I do this in WLS 5.1 SP5 ....MS-Word do open...BUT...
          there are lots of weird characters in the document....!!!
          (the same problem for pdf:s)
          Browser used is IE5.0
          (the code above works fine in another appserver i've tested)

thanks for your comment,
          but the code-snippet works fine in Orion Webapp server...
          but NOT in WLS 5.1 sp5...that is a bit strange....
          I dont think it has something to do with MS-Word as such...
          though i have noticed that WLS starts every processed page with a lot of
          empty rows..wich is sent to the cliennt...that could be interpreted
          by the Application/Word to be something else...??? or ???

How to insert a streaming audio file/link into a basic HTML page?

I am a novice webmaster managing the website for our arts organization. I am trying to build a simple table on a page of our site that will have about 30 streaming MP3 audio clips for our members to review. I'm using Amazon CloudFront and Amazon S3 to host and stream these files (using an embedded JW Player?). Can someone explain to me how to insert these media files into my Dreamweaver page in the most simple way?
Up until now, I've been just inserting downloadable MP3 files as quicktime plugins (also hosted at Amazon S3) but with 30 files that gets pretty cumbersome because they all begin to progressive download at the same time.
Thank you.

I simply want a basic playlist for MP3 files. What is the type of playlist I want in that case?
XML would work.

Analysing waveform for digital values stored in a file

i have certain digitals values obtained in a file in .txt format.
i have to obtain a waveform by giving the input as these digital values in that file.
I have programmed for array input manually.
But the waveform analysis should be made such that it do analyze automatically by taking the values stored in the file.
The values are stored as like follows-
0.00159
0.01432
0.01654
0.15432
etc
Give me a module to do this task.

Use the Read from Spreadsheet file and then just connect it to a waveform chart. This will do what you need. Post back.

Will going from Reader 3.1 to 5 cause loss of any files stored as PDF files done with 3.1?

Presently use Firefox Reader v. 3.1.4. Many files on my desk computer, operating on XP Pro, are stored in PDF files done with the 3.1.4 version. If I up date to the new 5.0 will these old files still open? Or will they be lost?
Worse case if FireFox Reader was to be removed from my computer what happens to these older files that were saved using Firefox Reader 3.1.4?
I am not experiencing any problems now, but the above questions are a concern, especially as this old computer continues to age.
Thanks very much,

Hi, thanks for the very quick reply, although it doesn't really answer my question. As for not finding a Fire Fox Reader vr. 5 you should go to this link.
http://download.cnet.com/Foxit-Reader/3000-10743_4-10313206.html
I'd appreciate any comments you have about this PDF reader in regard to my original question.
It all could be a mute point, mush like changing versions of Adobe, nothing seems to be lost or changed in the saved pdf files when changing versions in Adobe. Possibly Fire Fox 5 operates the same.

Streaming audio file over the network w JMF. How to know when the file end

Hi
I am streaming audio file over the network using JMF. I want to be able to know when a file end so I can close the streaming session.
Can some one please help
Thanks

If you put a ControllerListener on the Processor that's associated with generating the RTP stream, it'll generate an "EndOfMedia" event when the end of the file is reached.

Can QT Player play streaming .asx files from the Web?

All:
I'm trying to play some of the flash video files from this site:
http://www.adultswim.com/williams/bump_music/index.html
I'm certain the links work because those movies play fine on a PC. Yet on my Macs (a Mac Pro and a Macbook), when I click on any of them, I get a blank screen.
I have the latest Flip4Mac WMV components installed and I pretty much have everything enabled in the Quicktime MIME settings as well, but I have no luck playing these files.
Is there something else I'm missing here?
Can QT player handle streaming .asx files or do I need a different codec for that? If I do need a specific codec, where would I get it?
Or do I have get Flip4Mac WMV Pro or QT Pro to get this to work?
According to the website, the WM components I installed should be able to play .asx files (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx). FWIW, plain .wmv files play just fine locally or via streaming.
Can any of you try it and see if it works for you?
Thanks,
Ken

Doesn't work here either, even with the latest Flip4Mac beta. There are some WMV formats that just won't work on a Mac, and this may be one of them. But you can try contacting Flip4Mac's tech support and asking if they have any information on the issue.

Storing multiple DV files across CDs or DVDs via QTime

Folks,
A couple of weeks ago, I attempted to get an answer to questions I had about storing multiple DV files across multiple DVDs or CDs using Quicktime. I failed to truly get a straight forward answer in non-techno English so having now acquired more info, here - for the non-geeks - is what I've learned in regular human non-geek English:
DVD Rs and CD Rs are pretty much the same thing. You have to check to make sure the drive you have on your computer CAN indeed "write" to these disks. You do that by pulling down the "About this Mac..." in the menu with the Apple icon.
Someone in the Comp Forum on Craigslist posted a terrific list of all the permutations of these types of storage disks with the minor differences between each (ex., DVD-RW vs. DVD+RW - some older machines cannot read one of these and I don't remember which). I can't find link to that post but you can try a search on CL or post there asking that the info be REposted. They're pretty nice there.
I haven't pursued determining whether Quicktime will store the multiple DV files across multiple disks but there is no need to since iMovie will do it. Each "clip" in iMovie is the equivlanet to a DV file so you can just drag each clip onto the icon of your DVD or CD. You'll be prompted for a name, et al.
My 1.5 hours of DV footage required 3.5 DVDs to store.
Each DV file is exactly that - a discrete file of video data similar to one specific MS Word file so - there is no need for any sort of program to sequentially store the files on multiple disks or bring them over FROM multiple disks. You the human do that just like when you store multiple documents on a bunch of disks.
File formats were also confusing to me and not really clearly explained here in regular-speak. The DV cam format that you can shoot in is video uncompressed. DV (file will be called "filename.dv" when it is in DV format) is compressed and there are a whole bunch of different compressed file formats. The MPEG term thrown around refers to the way a particular file of video data is compressed - the "compression scheme" used - i.e., there's MPEG 2, MPEG 4, etc. I don't remember what the acronym MPEG means but it's easy to find that out.
I hope the above is helpful to others like myself (and I already know I'm not alone via my research over the past 2 weeks) who have had a difficult time getting straight answers in understandable language regarding all of this.
I also got solutions to my PDA problem w/Tiger which I posted on the Apple Discussion site here. Getting a solution and answers there was more painful than getting this particular DVD/CD video stuff straightened out but both experiences suggest to me ...are you listening Apple... that the old school of tech writers and HI designers at Apple need to be "reinstalled".

Yes. If the data you choose to burn will take up more than one disk, spanning is automatically chosen and the interface tells you how many disks you'll need. You have the option to "Avoid splitting files when spanning". A good precautionary option if you're worried about an important file not reading back off a disk it has to cross over to. You end up with as many normal disks as it takes. There's no need to read them back in any particular order as long as you don't let it split files.

Accesss Files Stored in Oracle Files from Forms

I am attempting to access the files that are stored in Oracle Files (oracle collaboration suite) from an Oracle Forms.
To be more specific I am would like to implement a solution to access Files from Custom Form in Oracle Application(11i).
Any suggestions/thoughts in this regard is very much appreciated.
Pavan

Hi we are on a project similar to this, basically you have two options:
a) Use Java-Importer to include the necessary classes to interact with IFS (e.g. rename, delete or get informations about documents).
b) Use a servlet to get files out-of and into IFS.
Because we had to do a lot of "loading" and we didn't want to run a round at client side to sign our forms jar files we decided to use method b).

Stream from File - Workflow Inquiry

Greetings all,
In short I am trying to stream from file. By this I mean a solution where the user views the streaming video as something like "http://stream.somesite.com" and not "http://stream.somesite.com/vod/vmp4:video1(and then video2, and then video3)"
The goal is to seamlessly update the playlist of files (remove/re-order/append) that is being streamed in the background so to the end-user it's just one continuous live stream. You could equate it to watching TV, actually.
The reason I am asking is that software like Flash media Encoder can only play from live sources like capture cards, screen capture software, or webcameras, and then software like Flash Media Streaming Server 4.0 can only play from specific files directly. While you can stream from an XML playlist, I want all the viewers to be watching from the same point and not be able to prematurely change the video.
This setup is best seen in popular site like Justin.tv and livestream. The key differences I am looking for is to stream from pre-encoded files (MP4(H264/AAC)) in an effort to keep the quality as high as possible.
Can someone help me out?
My Current Setup:
A Box running Windows server 2008 R2 with IIS7.0 installed and configured for H264 HTTP-Pseudo streaming. See:http://h264.code-shop.com/tracListening on Port 8080
Same box running Flash Media Streaming Server 4.0 with "httpproxy" set to the IIS7.0 server.Listening on Port 80 and 1392(?)(the rtmp one...)

I like the looks of the play2 command and thus the adobe extended dynamic streaming class from here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/tool_downloads/
The main goals are to give the end user seamless viewing of the playlist, to obfusicate the files themselves for security, and to control the playlist on the backend when needed. My original idea did all this by controlling everything on the server side and only letting the user see the end continuous stream.
I am looking into actionscript now, but am curious as to how it works. It's not something you can just place in the an hmtl file, like javascript or php, right?
It seems you compile actionscript into .swfs using Flash CS4 Pro, and then call them using javascript and such? Confused. :/
What methods are available for file security on the flash server? I have read an article from the JW player people here http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/48/securing-content-protect-your-video#Serv er_Side and it seems you need to implement the security on the bundled Apache 2.2. server rather than the flash server itself. The current method I am focusing on is the temporary URL generation. Something like "http://server.com/as9d86a/video1.mp4" instead of "http://server.com/path/to/real/file/video1.mp4" where the temp URL will timeout when the file finishes playing. That way only 1 file is available for the user to stream from at any one time. Then when the current video ends a new url is generated for the next video and delivered to the flash player.
In that reguard I currently have my eye on implementing mod_auth_token seen here: http://code.google.com/p/mod-auth-token/
What are people opinion on this?
Thanks for your help.

.html report stored in a file, the current report?

I would like to make an .html report previously stored in a file, the cuurent report referred to by the report reference number. Any help would be appreciated.

Stan,
To do this you need to take advantage of the "Template" terminal on the "New Report" VI. If you wire the path to your existing html file to that terminal the report will now point to that file. You can then make the additions to the report you would like. When you are all done you can then save it to a new file path, or overwrite the existing html file.
Here is a KnowledgeBase and example that discusses how to do this with a word document, but the idea is the same. Opening Existing Word/Excel Files Using the LabVIEW Office Report Generation Toolkit
I also attached a simple example. I hope these help.
