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)

Quicktime Streaming Server - qtss - service does not start in Server Admin.

Hi,
We're currently trying to configure a video/audio streaming server, but we've fallen at the first hurdle and the QuickTime Streaming service will not start (I am trying to enable it via Server Admin). Can anyone think of any possible reasons for this?
Many thanks,
Dave

It's probably not hugely relevant but are you trying to start it remotely or locally on the server? I know Server Admin can get a bit laggy and not always do what it should when starting services. Also can you check in the logs for the service (Quicktime Streaming>Logs>Error Log) to see if there's anything in there which gives and indication. Paste the output here if you need anymore help with that.

Adobe Flash Player video not streaming correctly (since 10/14/11)

Hello!
I'm a full-time, daily user of Flash Player as I got rid of my TV and started depending on websites to watch live TV streaming, full episodes or videos. I've never had any issues with FP working properly until about midnight, FP video streaming is pausing/buffering every 2-3 seconds. I have already spent hours making sure my notebook (which is 3 weeks old) did not have any software updates, pc performance issues, and also ran full scans for any possible viruses through McAfee and Windows Defender which completed sucessfully. Additional maintenance including uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe FP 11, made sure all browser ad-ons were disabled, disabled automatic software to run at start-up, checked for any "failed" updates in history and fixed (1) failed update in Windows, deleted browsing history and cookies, uninstalled any unimportant software such as Bing, checked memory usage, troubleshoot issues in control panel and disabled display hardware acceleration in adoble FP settings per instructions read in online support. I do pay for IT Service through my ISP which was my last attempt to fix this issue, however, I was hoping to get any advise from you first because I did see that there is a note in your website that Adobe is performing maintenance updates at this time, and I'm hoping this might be the reason afterall. I appriciate your rapid responsse to any advise or help before I continue to diagnose any performance isses further with my IT. Thank you so much!!!!

Windows Defender is not an anti-virus program in the traditional sense, it simply sweeps the hard drive for a limited number of known malware and will not interfere with any other installed anti-virus software such as McAfee.
I seriously doubt that the anti-virus software has anything to do with these Flash Player problems at all, but regardless my advice would be to uninstall McAfee and download Microsoft Security Essentials direct from the Microsoft website - this is a full, free, anti-virus suite which also makes Windows Defender obsolete (it will probably remove Windows Defender for you automatically).
There seems to have been a lot of problems for a lot of people with Flash Player 11, if removing McAfee didn't solve your problem then I would advise uninstalling Flash Player 11 (there is a Flash Player uninstaller available on the Adobe website - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html) and going back to a previous Flash Player version to see if that cures your problem. I am in the process of doing the same thing myself as since updating to 11 my streaming video has been messed up, I can think of no other explanation than shoddy coding / testing in Flash Player 11. The Flash Player 10.3 installer is available here - http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html#fp10.3 and here - http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/142/tn_14266.html

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?

My video not streaming via Skype

Hi, I have an Intel iMac, my friend has a new MacBook. When we Skype, I see him, but he can't see me.
My built in iSight camera does not come on automatically when I call, so I choose Skype>Preferences>Video. Then the green light next to the camera comes on and I see my image. He can't see me at this point (I think that is intended - video does not seem to stream out when the preferences window is open). But when I close the preferences window I believe that my camera should stay ON and my friend should then see my image. What actually happens is that the camera turns off when I close the preferences window - so he still cannot see me.
Any ideas anyone?

Experiencing stop and go of utube videos not streaming

I view utube videos on my ipad and the videos are downloading and video view is intermittent

Chances are it's your internet connection. Wifi only transfers data so fast. See if you can pause the video and let it 'catch up' so to speak and then try to watch.

Have AMD & Realtek audio enabled, should I uninstall one? you tube & other video not streaming...

HP 2000 notebook pc windows 8, no error message, I have 2 devices for audio Realtek & AMD, should I uninstall one?

Hi,
No, you shouldn't uninstall either of them.
One is for the notebook speakers (realtek) and one (AMD) is for the HDMI out port which sends video and audio thru the HDMI cable to an HDTV or monitor.

Ufter Upgrade to Firefox 7.0 I did not get a connection anymore. With Firefox 5 it did work fine !

You offerd me an Update from Version 5 to Firefox Version 7.
I have processed this Update.
Then no more Connection to Internet

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
See:
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Server+not+found
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firewalls
The default of the pref network.http.max-connections has been increased from 30 to 256 in Firefox 6+ versions.
Decrease the value of the pref <b>network.http.max-connections</b> from 255 to a more modest setting like 30 as used in Firefox 3 versions.

Clip Notes streaming export causes Reader media clip error

MacPro HDV captured into PPCS4, export OK to Adobe Clip Notes streaming, uploads .mov file to my FTP site OK. The .mov clip plays fine locally in QT. When I open the clip notes pdf in Acrobat 9 Reader for Mac or Acrobat 8 Pro on Vista, both give the same error on opening: Javascript window - error reading media clip. The clip does not load into the pdf, and I can not get error information to debug.
Answer: I need QT streaming server. The Clip Notes streaming is true streaming, not progressive-download or pseudo-streaming. I did not see this in the Premiere CS4 documentation.

I'm using Vista 64.
I was having the same problem with the transport controls not showing up.
I set AcroRd32.exe to run in XP mode and that fixed the problem with the embedded movie file.
Transport controls show up.
Thanks.
I hoped that would also fix the QT streaming problem.
However, if I select "Streaming" and upload it to my server then when the Clip Notes tries to play the file it says "
This happened also before I set AcroRd32 to XP mode.
No problem with "Clip Notes Windows Media" format. It uploads and plays fine.
The .mov file is on the server. I can play it fine in a browser.
Any ideas why Adobe Reader won't play a streaming .mov file in Clip Notes, but will play a streaming .wmv file?
You really need to use QT so you can scrub the timeline.
.wmv files don't let you scrub!
Adobe why haven't you after all these years made Clip Notes use flash?
If you did it would truly be cross-platform.
Thanks.

Streaming Live Video using Flash Media Encoder/Flash Media Streaming Server

We currently get a video feed from local cable channel that gets streamed live to our internet website. It gets encoded first on our Windows 2003 server running Windows Media Encoder and then gets published on another Windows 2003 server running Windows Media Services. We are trying to replace these two servers with another solution and the two things driving this project are:
1. These two servers are coming to an end of life cycle so we need to replace the hardware and upgrade the OS.
2. They currently only support Windows compatible file formats. Just like other organizations out there, iPAD users are popping up and they want to view these video streaming from their iPAD.
That's why we are looking at Adobe Flash Media Encoder3 and Flash Media Streaming Server 4.5. My questions for the experts out there are:
1. Can Adobe Flash Media Encoder and Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server can replace our current solution?
2. Do we need both Flash Media Encoder and Flash Media Streaming Server or can Flash Media Streaming Server also can encode video feed?
3. Can Flash Media Encoder and Flash Media Streaming Server can run on the same server?
4. Our Windows Media Services server also has few on-demand publishing points along with a live video streaming. Can above mentioned Adobe products support having live streaming publishing point along with on-demand video publishing points?
5. Does Adobe Flash Media Encoder only support Flash and Quicktime or does it also support .wmv?
I called the sales to find the answers to these questions but he basically read the features listed on the Adobe product website and couldn't really answer these questions.
Any help in find the answers to these questions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks you.

FYI - I was able to do it by using the "onFI" handler of the embedded NetStream object.
myVideo.addEventListener(fl.video.VideoEvent.STATE_CHANGE, onVideoStateChange);
function onVideoStateChange(evt:fl.video.VideoEvent)
// trace("State = " + evt.state);
if ( evt.state == "playing" )
if (!ns)
ns = myVideo.getVideoPlayer(evt.vp).netStream;
ns.client.onFI = onFIHandler;
function onFIHandler(infoObj:Object):void
var ts:String = infoObj.st;
trace("system time: " + ts);
ExternalInterface.call("updateTimeStamp", ts);

QuickTime Streaming Server

I've been looking to stream my webcam online and I understand how to do so.. The only thing that is puzzling me is that I can't find the QuickTime Streaming Server program or what not. All I need to do is set up my server and I'll understand the rest.. How do I get to the server setup?

Well I'm planning on putting the webcam on my webpage.. It's just that I'm using www.freewebs.com which is a free webspace and doesn't provide me w/ a server. I was planning on using QuickTime Broadcaster but it seems to require that I have a server enitialised.

UDP Stream -- SDP File w/ QuickTime Streaming Server?

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to help a client who's getting into some more advanced QuickTime stuff than I'm famillair with, and I could sure use some help figuring out a solution for him. Instead of trying to rephrase his question myself, I'll just copy his email to me below:
Question about QTSS. I have played around with Darwin Streaming Server quite a bit but there is one thing I want it to do that it can't. My question is this. Will Quicktime Streaming Server take an unannounced UDP stream that is directed to it and automatically create a SDP file so I can then relay the stream to people. With DSS I have to make a SDP file myself which I don't know how to do yet.
What I'm doing is using an Axis Network camera, sending video out UDP unannounced. I'm doing this so if a network connection goes down the camera will still be sending out video and when the connection comes back up the video will make it through to the server again.
So once it's on QTSS I want to pull 3 different streams of this feed (via the SDP file), one with no modification, the other 2 VLC will request the stream and transcode them and drop the transcoded stream into another QTSS. This second QTSS would be the server for the 2 transcoded streams.
Thanks,
Any ideas? If QTSS can't do exactly what he has in mind, is there another feature that would be similar? Again, any help you might provide would be very appreciated,
Huxley Dunsany

I thought I'd bump this message just on the off chance anyone who might have an answer missed it the first time around. Heck, if you've even got a good suggestion as to a better forum to ask it on, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks, and best wishes,
Huxley

Upgrade from Windows Server 2003 to 2008

Hi Experts,
We are currently running SAP BPC v 7.0 for Microsoft in a Windows Server 2003 environment. This is not a production application right now as we are doing discovery work in SAP BPC 7.0. For another project, we need to upgrade to windows server 2008.
We are trying to figure out if the SAP BPC will still work after the upgrade. I know SAP BPC is compatible with Server 2008, but do we need to start of a fresh installation or the upgrade will work. We are trying to figure out if we should plan some time to reinstall SAP BPC and re-do the work we have done in BPC once it has been upgraded.
Thanks a lot!
Martin

At this point, BPC 7.0 for Microsoft is not certified for Windows 2008. So, if you prepare and execute the upgrade to the server OS, support may not assist if you find any issues. We plan to be certified on Windows 2008 with the next release of 7.5 for BPC.
Hope this helps.

Streaming Server, Interactive Server, Development Server - can I get some clarification please?

I've read the Flash Media Server 3.5 developer's guide and
have perused various parts of the 3.5 Server-Side language
reference, and now I am confused as to what functionality is
available to which server products.
For example, the XMLSocket class says its available to the
"Flash Media Server 2". The name of the streaming server product is
"Flash Media Streaming Server" and the other server product is the
"Flash Media Interactive Server". So does that mean XMLSocket is
applicable to both?
Elsewhere in the language reference, the Netstream.time is
said to be available to the "Flash Media Interactive Server" and
the "Flash Media Development Server". OK, the first one is pretty
clear, but I don't see anywhere on the Adobe site for the "Flash
Media Development Server". Is that the "Flash Media Streaming
Server" that Adobe allows to be downloaded for development? If
that's the case, then shouldn't Netstream.time also be available
for the "Flash Media Streaming Server"? In any case, this
functionality seems pretty crucial to writing applications for
streaming, why would it not be available?
What I'm gettting at is that I'm trying to determine which
server products our company needs for the project we are embarking
on. The project is paid live streaming that authenticates a user,
keeps track of his time viewing live streams, keeps track of which
live stream he views, disconnects them when they run out of paid
time, sends a message to them that they have run out of time, and
shows them their time as it is ticking down.
Can someone please clarify on the server components
needed?

If you want live streaming, authentication, and server side
application logic, you want FMIS (interactive server).
The development server has all the features of FMIS enabled
but a limit of 10 connections. (eula is also different)

Adobe Media Live streaming Server issue.

Adobe Media Live streaming Server. I cant get it to connect with the vhost IP and when it connects with our main IP I was able to bring up a cam and then to check it I closed out the server side and reopened it, started it up and then it wouldnt connect to that same cam page.
Any suggestions?
