Strobe Media Playback, how to check if playing stream is live (from dynamic plugin)

Can someone guide me how to check if stream is live or not? I check Media Player class, but cannot find anything related.
Edit:
I now check it be flash variable streamType = "live", but id there is better way will be good,

Hello,
I'm not sure there is a good solution to your problem on Windows Phone 8.1 (WP8.1). I think your problem is due to the background audio subsystem in WP8.1 doesn't use Zune for playback but instead has a new media manager service that controls what
background audio task is currently playing. If you are writing a Runtime app you can us the
BackgroundMediaPlayer to get this information but this object does not have the concept of a music queue.
Here is more information on background audio for Runtime apps:

Strobe Media Playback and streamType='dvr' not playing "live"

Hello,
We're currently using Strobe Media Playback to play a DVR stream.
These are the parameter options we're passing:
var parameterNames = pqs.params(false);
            var parameters =
               {    src:"<?php echo $_GET['src']; ?>"
                ,    autoPlay: true
                ,    sreamType: "dvr"
                ,    controlBarAutoHide: true
                ,     highQualityThreshold: "640"
                ,    dvrSnapToLiveClockOffset: "5"
                ,   javascriptCallbackFunction: "onJavaScriptBridgeCreated"
The seekbar shows Live / <time>, but it always starts from the beginning of the stream. If you move the seekbar all the way to the right, It starts playing live.
Why is it doing this? if I take out the <dvrInfo> tag in the f4m file, and set streamType: "live", it starts from the live point.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks

How to check whether a stream a live or recorded video in FMS?

I don't find such API to indicate whether a stream is live or not.
Anyone knows how to judge this,either by client side or server side actionscript?

According to the definition of stream.time, I don't think we can distinguish a live stream from a recorded stream by that.
Stream.time
myStream.time
Read-only; the number of seconds the stream has been playing. This value is the timestamp of the latest frame that flowed out of the stream.
That said,in both cases,myStream.time will keep increasing.

I am using strobe media playback but i want to add new button for subtitle in control bar,Can anybody tell me how can i do it.

Hi,

subtitile and how many language you want to add. i.e. text files or xml
files.

Online Code Walk-Through Wednesday on How To Build an OSMF Player Strobe Media Playback

Wednesday November 17 at 12:00 noon PDT the OSMF User Group is hosting an online code walk-through of the open source Strobe Media Playback video player codebase.
The code walk-through will be lead by Andrian Cucu who is Adobe's Project Leader on the Flash and Strobe Media Playback video player project.
To join, just go to the following link at the meeting time to join the OSMF User Group's Connect room:
http://experts.na3.acrobat.com/osmf/
For further details and to RSVP see the following link:
http://osmf.groups.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=post.display&postid=30846
** ALL ARE WELCOME! **
** PLEASE FORWARD THIS MEETING NOTICE TO ALL WHO YOU THINK MAY BE INTERESTED! **

The player supports both standard and advanced delivery methods, including progressive download, RTMP streaming,
RTMP dynamic streaming, HTTP streaming, HTTP dynamic streaming, and live streaming. Flash Media Playback
1.5 and Strobe Media Playback 1.5 also provide support for RTMFP multicast content delivery.
While RTMP(x) streaming are FMS content delivery technologies, the player can also be used with other FMS compatible streaming servers, such as Wowza or Red5.
In the case you do not need the use of FMS streaming functionality, progressive download is always an alternative (what this means is that all you need is a video that can be served by a webserver like apache, nginx, lightypd, etc).
As for how the player can be used, these links are allways a good place to start and get a better idea of what it is all about:

How to stream with the player strobe media playback videos using http dynamic streaming?

Hi..
please could i have some help about the player strobe media playback?
i would like to know how to stream with the player strobe media playback videos using http dynamic streaming.
I have already installed the server,i put my own video in the video on demand folder.i downloaded the player but i don't know how to stream that video with the adobe protocol dynamic streaming.

http://osmf.org/configurator/fmp/
Use this configurator, and use the same code it generates with your strobemediaplayback.swf
Also make sure the domain where strobemediaplayback.swf is being called from and resides, is in your /webroot/crossdomain.xml file, or it will not work.

How To Change Mouse Cursor Icon To Hand And Click Middle Of Player To Pause In Strobe Media Playback

Hello,
Thank you for providing a platform where uses can pose questions to Adobe employees. This certainly helps us all cut right through it.
Similar to YouTube's player (as well as many others), I was wondering if it is currently possible for users to enable functionality on Strobe Media Playback to change the mouse cursor to a hand/point cursor upon hovering over Strobe Media Playback's buttons (such as pause, the volume controls and that initial large centered middle play button),
And, whether or not it is currently possible to enable functionality to pause/play videos merely by clicking the middle of the video screen (within the normal view mode as well as the full screen mode). Again, with YouTube, Vimeo, JW Player, and many others, such functionality is currently built-in by default.
I look forward to any advice you are able to provide. Thanks again for providing this discussion platform for users.
- C.R.

Hi, thank you for your suggestions and for the interest in our player.
The full area click issue is an older one, tracked at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ST-156 . Unfortunately, it will not be fixed in this release.
The hand cursor issue is now tracked at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ST-331 - thanks for suggesting it!

Questions about SMP (Strobe Media Playback)

Hi all,
Sorry if I am posting this in a wrong forum. I did not know where else to put this.
I want to know:
Is it a web based player that can be embedded in a web browser or is it a desktop application?
How many domains can SMP be played on?
Does SMP support bandwidth detection?
Regards,
digital mystic

Encryption techniques for strobe media playback

What are the best techniques to protect content’s being played via strobe media playback..
User should be able only to view the video’s.
There should be no option for video download, even if user has installed real player.
Because by installing real player, it provides download option.
Thanks

Strobe Media Playback - calculating playback position from server

Need assistance on changing the seek position of a streaming video from Wowza Media 2.23 using Strobe Media Playback.
Have browser playback working OK but need to be able to position play derived from an array which gives a timing line value from the original video.
It will allow a user to locate an event within a video rather than playing the whole video.
The application is running on a Windows 2008 R2 Server using ASPNet 4.0.
Thanks for any ideas / suggestions.

However, the page is saying:
We are having problems with playback. We apologize for the inconvenience.
My links do not appear to be broken, I have checked them with Firebug / View Source. Has the javascript changed for Strobe 1.5?

Okay, I think I have it *partly* figured out. If I use the link from the example it works:
http://players.edgesuite.net/videos/big_buck_bunny/bbb_448x252.mp4
Does the video have to be online for it to work?
