Super Newbie trying to stream external video to FMS

Okay, I'm totally new and in the absolute dark here. I have installed FMS on a server in the TV station in which I work. I am trying to figure out how to stream video from Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder on an outside computer, back into the FMS at our station. I have no idea what the FMS URL is that I need to plug in to the Flash Media Live Encoder in order to reach the FMS back at our station.
Do I need to have something housed on an ftp site? We have a website and I can put whatever I need to there if that is indeed what I need to do. Not sure what the heck I'm doing here, but I'd LOVE to figure it out. I know it's not a lot to go on, buty any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

How to stream external video thru iTunes?

Hey Apple community!
So I've got a bit of a question. Is there a way to stream an internet video (such as from youtube) thru iTunes onto my computer? What I'm saying, for example, is I wanna watch a video on YouTube, but I wanna watch it in an iTunes movie window. The reason being that I absolutely love the fact that iTunes allows you to play your movies and what-not over every other window on the screen if you want. I use this feature every day as I use my computer for video editing purposes (among others) but oftentimes I have to look up a tutorial video on how to do something. It would be immensly helpful if I could keep the tutorial video over my other windows (thru iTunes, unless theres another way to do this) so it's easier to follow along.
Thanks for the help!

Maybe try a YouTube downloader.. no way to stream that I know of.

HT201343 I am trying to stream a video from U-tube on to my TV using my apply T.V. The airplay icon appears on my i-tunes but not on u-tube. It does stream on to my T.V using i-tunes so I take it it does have airplay, but does not appear n display menu. H

Airplay works on I-tunes but not on sites where you might want to stream, such as U-tube. It does not appear on my display menu settings, but as i-tunes as the icon I am thinking the computer must have the capability. Can anyone help, how to I turn airplay on so I can stream using my apple TV. I am sure as I-tune is working I have everything set up right.

Mirroring requires OSX 10.8 or higher.
Just use the YouTube app on the ATV.

I seem to be getting error messages when trying to stream videos

Why am I getting a message that says "this operation could not be completed" when trying to stream a video?

Print to vide/External video not working in FCP, PLEASE HELP

I have the FCP HD 4.5 and am having difficulty communicating to my Panasonic PV-800. Capture is great, but when trying to view external video or print to video, the default blue screen of my cameras vtr mode is distorted and no video comes through. I have refreshed AV devices and have check all frames in the external video menus. When i pause the playback, the still frame appears on my camera, then if i resume playback, the video does not come through, but only distorts the blue screen. I made sure the settings were correct and even found an apple site that told me to copy two plugins from the FCP CD, and i did that. I also did the quicktime fix where u delete the reciepts and download the latest version of Quicktime, still same videoless situation.
I feel like i've tried everything. Please if anyone can help, i gotta get something printed to video soon!

after doing everything it was:
Shutdown everything, power up connected camera, power up external drive, power up computer, launch fcp, and it worked. I dunno if the restart was a part of the process of one of my other things that i did or whatever. Maybe that's just how my computer reacts. Anyways, hope that helps anyone frustrated.

Captivate 4 : How to stream a video with smil file ?

I am trying to stream a video hosted on Highwinds CDN. Highwinds provides a web link for every uploaded flv file and does not accept calling the video directly with an rtmp link.
I have tried to insert flash video using these settings :
Video Type : Flash Video Streaming Service
URL : http://hwcdn.net/xxxxx/fms/captivate-swf-to-flv-Cam4-5fps.smil
When I press detect size, green circle keeps running and cannot get the dimensions.
Also when I publish the project (AS3 or AS2), video player on the slide does not show up, no video play.
I have been able to stream above file with smil web link using jw player, so there is no problem with the file and streaming service (highwinds).
I guess I am doing something wrong with Captivate 4 or Captivate 4 does not handle smil files ?
What may be a a solution to stream flv video using smil files ?
Regards,
Semih

Hi there
As you have seen, Captivate 4 introduces a total change in functionality with respect to the way the menu works. Now, all you may do is link to different slides. So this means you have to think a bit outside the box.
One way to achieve what you are wanting is to create a slide that has as its only purpose, Opening a URL. You assign this action using a new field in the Slide properties. On Slide Enter. Then you point your TOC entry to this slide. Of course this also means you will need to consider what happens after the slide that opens the URL is visited. So you will need to exercise some creativity here.
Cheers... Rick

Stream live video - use http or rtmp protocols from player code?

I'm trying to stream live video for the first time. I've installed FMIS 3.5 without Apache 2.2. I'm confused on the RTMP/HTTP protocol usage,
I can only have port 80 opened on our FMIS 3.5 box.
1. I've created a new directory under "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5\applications" called "livedev" as my publishing point.
2. Question:
     Do I need to copy main.asc, Application.xml, allowedHTMLdomains.txt, allowedSWFdomains.txt to this directory as well?
3. Question:
     Using FMLE 3 - FMS URL parameter which protocol do I need to use, does it matter 'http' or 'rtmp'? - http://localhost/livedev or rtmp://localhost/livedev
     Does RMTP use port 80.
4. Question:
     In my Flash Player code. I dragged an instance of FLVPlayback component, what URL do I need for the 'Source' parameter?
     Which protocol do I need to use, does it matter 'http' or 'rtmp'? - "http://localhost/livedev/livestream" or "rtmp://localhost/livedev/livestream"
Thanks,
Dave

A:
2. You don't need to copy main.asc unless you have logic in there that you want on your new application. It's a text file so you can open and read it, get familiar. allowedDomains is up to your security policy, but if you want it to apply to that application then yes. Finally the Application.xml in there is an override of the default one in the server's conf directory - so you only need to include it if you plan on overriding settings from the default.
3. Chosing which type dictates whether or not you're doing HTTP (not streaming) or RTMP (streaming) however you've added a complication that you're only allowed to use port 80 - which RTMP does not by default. FMLE doesn't support HTTP push to FMS, so the FMS URI must be fomr form of RTMP* so you're left with some good choices
Use RTMP over port 80 like so rtmp://myServerName:80/appName/ <- notice the coded port number
Use RTMPT which automatically uses port 80 and will get around most proxies that demand HTTP traffic - however there's more performance overhead than RTMP (think maybe 25% more overhead for a wild guess on my part)
I dunno the answer for your FLVPlayback component but I'm going to take a guess that the issue is about the same here and you should use the same parameter that you're using for your RTMP ingest. At worst I'm pretty sure that it will work and that's not so bad.

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from an external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. While setting up my new MAC the external hard drive was dropped and I have been told by an outside source they could not retrieve the files. It had 4 years of photos and videos on it. I remembered that I had downloaded some of the videos from the external hard drive (before it was broke) to Adobe Organizer 13 when I installed the Adobe 13 on my MACOS X 10.9.5. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open these videos?
Any input is greatly appreciated!! I am sick over losing the videos and had a little hope on Adobe Organizer until I was unable to open them. I am thinking it is due to my external hard drive not being plugged in. I thought when I transferred from the external hard drive to Adobe 13 that it would be there without the external hard drive needing to be attached but maybe I did something wrong.
Thanks again for any help!!!!

It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

I subscribe to Acorn TV. I am unable to stream their videos. I have no problem with Hulu, iTunes, Netflix. I have spoken with Acorn and have tried Firefox, Chrome and Safari, but nothing works. I am using a MacBook OS 10.6.8 and Firefox 3.6.12

I am a premium subscriber to AcornTV. I have been unable to stream video on my home MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8) using Firefox 3.6.12. I can easily stream Hulu, iTunes, Netflix, etc, but NOT AcornTV. I have tried the AcornTV player on Safari, Chrome and Firefox, nothing works. I use Time Warner High Speed internet at home, and they claim the problem is on Acorn's end, which Acorn denies. The biggest frustration is that I CAN stream Acorn videos on my office iMac desktop, using the same OS and same version of Firefox (we have our own server at work, though).

I'm watching it right now on Firexfox, but it's on a Dell, not a Mac. Have you tired watching it on a Chrome or IE browser instead of Firefox? And does it work on those browsers?
You should continue to follow up with Acorn TV - email [email protected] and you will get help, from the CTO, if necessary. Also, they now have a diagnostic page built that can analyze your computer and it will give them more information about your system. So, if you haven't tried in two months, it might be worth trying again.

When trying to stream video I am getting this error message "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (st) isn't associated with any program." How do I fix this?

Protocol error usually indicates that the very leftmost part of the URL is not recognized.
So http://, ftp://, rtsp://, usually work.
ableton:// would need to be added by some software somewhere...
Can you get instructions from the vendor? Does these posts seem relevant:

Hi. I am trying to record a video on my iPad 2 but hoping to use an external condenser microphone via my Lexicon Lambda interface. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Trying to record a video on the default iPad 2 video app, but not using the iPad 2 internal microphone. I would like to use an external condenser microphone via my Lexicon Lambda interface. Is this possible?

Try a restart.
If that doesn't fix the problem, shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application unistaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

Linking to external video in Captivate 7

I develop video-based training. Each slide includes mostly video. I've been successfully embedding f4v videos into Captivate projects for some time but video quality and file size issues make it necessary to begin linking to videos on external servers.
I've tried a number of options without success.
I create a video event, choose the url option, and add the url from the uploaded video. The only usable server choice is the Adobe Media Streaming Service. I've tested the videos on different servers including Amazon since the troubleshooting advice alerted me that only Adobe partners servers will be recognized. The project previews and the progress bar moves as if the video is playing but only the background file is visible. I tried all the preview options - no luck.
I decided to try the YouTube widget. I uploaded test videos to YouTube, inserted the Interaction widget and added the url, etc. This option results in a successful preview only when I choose the html 5 output in web browser option. Captivate will successfully publish the project but I get "Java Script Error unable to acquire LMS, API content, may not play properly" messages.
The published file performs like all of the unsuccessful previews. The file loads and acts as if the videos are playing in that the progress bar moves but there is no video, just the slide background image. I tried different output settings like just SWF, just html5, both SWF and html5, different versions of the flash player, etc. I also added the output folder to the Flash Global Security settings in case it was a permissions issue.
I'm working on a mac so I emailed a zipped file to my PC and tried to open in Internet Explorer to see if the file might play on a different system or browser - same outcome - no luck.
Making external video work is critical to my work and use of Captivate so I'm hoping there's something I'm missing or misunderstanding about what I need to do.
Any help or advice will be appreciated.

I'm continuing to have problems with the YouTube widget. My client sent me YouTube links and when I copied and pasted the new links into the Captivate file and the published and uploaded the file, the links didn't work.
To review, I uploaded video files to YouTube and used the interactions widget to insert the linked videos. The videos which I uploaded can be previewed in html5 in web browser but not in any other way. When I publish this file and view the file on my system on my browser (Safari) the file opens but the videos do not play. However, when I upload to my ftp site and open the file from there, the linked YouTube videos play.
So this led me to believe that I have a file that will work at least in html5 output. But when I replace the original YouTube links that I uploaded with new links provided by my client the videos preview in html5 in web browser mode but do not play on my system or when uploaded to my ftp site. All of the videos (mine and my clients) play in YouTube and preview in html5 mode.
Additionally, when I ouput the html5 file, the quiz doesn't work properly. The radio buttons don't appear on screen so when answers are selected the user has no way of knowing their selections have been accepted. Oddly, the quiz is registering answers since when you submit there is a brief flash during which you can see the buttons but they quickly disappear and results are tallied accurately at the end. But the quiz is unusable without user feedback for selections. You can view this performance beginning on the sixth slide (the beginning of the quiz).

Are html5 output files compatible with Learning Management Systems? Is there a way to use the YouTube widget in SWF output files?

Frozen when view on external video monitor HELP

Hi everyone, I have just finished my biggest project in 3 months. Thankx for all your helps & I love the MULTICAM feature very much.
Now i'm on the second project. This project was shot on DigiBeta PAL.
To make it short: does anyone has a frozen picture as they play it out to the external video monitor for the uncompress 10bit file?
3months ago when I digitized in as uncompress 10bit , fcp play out to external monitor FINE, including the multicam feature.
However, since I need to work with 10cam at the same time, I have to capture in as DV (my source was DVCAM) so fcp can play all 10cam in multiclip mode. everything went perfect.
TOday, I capture my sources both NTSC & PAL, they can only play in the mac monitor but not the external video monitor. feeding out to external monitor make the clips freeze. the picture is frozen but the audio still playing.
My drives are fast enough since we had been working with these MEDEA drives for years.
thank you so much.

thankx for all your helps but I had tried all those before I post the question. I'm no newbie. It must be FCP's bug. I trashed the pref & select 8bit instead of 10bit for viewing, & it play ok for single clip. On multiclip, it shutter alittle bit. Maybe I need to reinstall fcp. Don't know yet.
thankx
JP
