Use as a media streamer?

I have a 'spare' 1.66ghz core duo mini.
I am trying to determine if I could use it as a media streamer to my TV.
ie I want to use the rascal for external services like netflix and amazon...
Some questions:
1) My cable connection is a nominal 4mbs/sec. Is this adequate bandwidth for
Watching movies from netflix? The mini would be connected to my lan
Via 802.11g wireless.
2) I can attach the mini to the tv via a mini dvi to hmdi cable for the video but
I am not clear on how to handle the sound. I don't want to install an audio
processor and I am not sure I can get suitable audio from the headphone Jack.
I have a wd tv live for showing local video, and it works fine for that task.
Any suggestions?
Jerry

Your mini should have a full sized DVI connector if it is the 1.66ghz Core Duo model. A DVI to HDMI connection should work well, depending more on the settings offered by your TV. For audio, see if one of the HDMI ports on the TV has a set of audio inputs paired with it. If so, that is the one you should use to connect your mini, and you can easily use a stereo 3.5mm (1/8") to stereo RCA (phono 'red and white') cable to pass the audio to your TV. You can also use digital optical input if your TV offers that paired with an HDMI input, but if your TV only has 2 speakers anyway, this may not be necessary.

Upgrade path from Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 to Adobe Media Server 5 Professional

Hi All,
We are currently using Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 for streaming video via flash. We want to upgrade this to Adobe Media Server 5 Professional.
I would like to understand the complete upgrade path and any specific pre-caution that I may need to take for existing videos.
Please direct me if you there already exists some support material or let me know if any specific details may be required.
Regards,
Amresh

FMS isn't reall suiatable for serving a website or CMS. I suppose you -could- use the included Apache installation to handle your HTTP traffic, but it would require installing a database, an application server, and whatever else you would need. You'd then need to maintain the installation yourself... FMS doesn't have any sort of package manager to handle updating Apache or anything else you might want to attach to it.
I think you'd be better off using a package manager like Plesk or Cpanel, and let it take care of your httpd server and supporting services. My advice is to just use FMS for purposes that specifically call for it.

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);

Can I use quicktime to watch windows media streaming with authentication?

I everyone. I am running into a problem here. I have a Mac Book Pro and would like to watch some windows media streams. Until last month I was using Quicktime to watch them because they were not protected. But beginning on this month they implemented a security access where we need to put login and password in order to watch the stream.
If I try to acess that mms using Windows Media Player or Real Player on Windows, it opens a pop up asking for my username and password. However on my Mac Book Pro I can't get to this authentication screen using any player.
I have tried Quicktime, but also tried VLC, Real Player and Windows Media Player 9 for Mac. None of these play the mms since they started using the authentication scheme.
Can anyone help? Can I somehow authenticate to the sever and watch the mms on my Mac Book Pro? (I know I can use a Virtual Machine and watch this on Windows, but I would prefer to not depending on Windows)
Appreciate any help!
Denis

Sorry, I should have clarified that. MMS is the stream protocol used by Microsoft Media Services (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicrosoftMediaServices) .
I know Quicktime could run it if I have Flip4Mac installed, that's why I could watch those streams until last month. The problem started after then applied authentication to those streams. Now when I go to Quicktime, select "Open URL" option, and add the stream mms address (mms://link), it just doesn't do anything. It is something with the authentication because when there was no authentication it just worked perfectly.
Is there any way to make Quicktime authenticate to a Windows Media Server?

ITunes and other media streaming

Hey all,
I have recently acquired a new sound system, a set of B&W 685 speakers, a NAD receiver, and an external DAC. Currenly I use my airport express to stream music from my laptop (macbook pro retina) to the system, but unfortunately as my itunes library grows larger I am running out of space on my laptop.
What I am looking for is a solution to store and play my music from an external source through my sound system, preferably controlling it with my phone, and not having to turn on my computer every time I want to listen to some music. Based on that explanation it does sound a lot like a SONOS Connect with an external drive/NAS connected to it. But wait, there is more.
Additionally I would like to run a USB from this "solution" directly into my TV, thereby being able to display my media content (pictures and movies) that are stored externally directly on my tv. I know that D-Links Boxee Box is a great media player, but does it work to play music if the TV is turned off?
Please feel free to leave potential solutions to my conundrum and help me to build the "perfect" apple media streaming solution, where all data is stored and played from an external source.
Budget vise I am don't feel like spending more than $600 - $800, so keep the propositions within that budget.
Apple proucts used today: Iphone, MacBook Pro, and Airport Express.
Thanks guys !

Did you ever get this solved? I'm actually having the same problem. I've moved my library from old mac to new mac and everything is fine with the exception of the purchases. any time i try to migrate them into itunes, it crashes.

55VL900a - media streaming via WLan breaks after 10-15 min

I was hoping someone might help me.
I like to stream video from my MacBook Pro to the my TV.
They are both connected to my wireless network and it all works fine for abour 10~15 mins and then the TV stops streaming.
I thought it was my Mac, then I thought it was my network, but, on the same network and setup I can stream to my ipad no issues. It seems the problem is coming from the TV..
I don't know what else to try.
I was hoping someone out there had a solution or an idea of something I can try.
I have tried using a wired connection to the TV.
Same result. I am at my wits end..

Media Streaming Problem

My z10 is not working well. The media streaming between my Sante Fe and z10 doesn't appear to be working. I downloaded the latest OS and I believe that it's since then that i've had the problem. The phone is paired with the car fine. The phone works through the car speaker system..... but my map app and music won't play (the car says "no media"). I've been to the dealership because the car is under warranty and the service manager was able to connect his android fine (played music). I then went to my mobile service provider and the service rep came to my car and he couldn't get it working either. He suggested this site. Anyone know how to correct this? Thanks

Hi Matthew
Welcome to Apple Discussions
Those sites are driven by Adobe Flash.
Make sure you are using the most recent plug-in, which is version 10.0.12.036. You can determine your machine's version here. If you have an earlier version update the plug-in. You can do so here.
Whether or not you have the most recent version, go to your Applications>Utilities folder and open Disk Utility. Select "repair permissions". You'll probably see Flash items being repaired.
When complete, close DU, then restart Safari and try some Flash videos.

RTP Media Stream with "Third Party SIP Device" always through CUCM

Hello,
i have i quite strage problem on one of my customers locations:
we have a cucm 7.1.5(SU4) with the cucm in the datacenter. And we have a small location(branch office) which has a small wan connection to the datacenter (1MBit/s).
In this location we have several Kirk (Polycom) Dect phones which register as "Third Party SIP Device - Basic" on the CUCM.
(The problem is the same if i use the X-Lite SIP Client instead)
When this SIP Phones or the X-Lite Client dials a internal Number of the same location the RTP Media Streams goes directly from the SIP Client to the phone. But if they dial an external number the RTP Stream goes from the SIP Client via the wan connection to the CUCM and back via the wan connection to the 2901 H.323 Gateway (on the same location).
and of course if i now start a big download or upload i'm no longe able to complete the phone call because we have no QOS on the wan connection, because we don't want to make calls over this connection.
When i look at the Sniffer files with Wireshark i see that the CUCM sends his own ip adresse in the SDP Header for the RTP Stream to the SIP Client. And this of course is wrong because the RTP Stream should always reside on the branch office.
i tested this in my lab (CUCM 8.5) and it is the same. i used the "Standard SIP Profile" and a Basic Third Party SIP Device"
The SCCP Phones on the same location which are configured with the same Region, Location, Device Pools, Media Resources and which use the same Gateway for external calls do not have this problem.
In the Gateway configuration "MTP Required" is not activated and i tested it in my lab with some Cisco SIP Phones (9971) and they are also not affacted with this problem.
any ideas?

do you have a SIP trunk to the external devices with MTP required checked ?

How to secure Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (live stream connection)

I have Flash Media Streaming Server 3.5 (not Interactive) running on RHEL5.5 x86_64 Linux.
All is working well, however how do I prevent unauthorized access to connecting to the live stream and streaming content?
How can I setup the server to require a user and password to stream live media to the server?
Any help would be great, I am new to this product and I have been reading some documentation but I have not found a clear cut answer on how to force a username and password to connect to the server to stream live content only.
I am using the Adobe FMS Apache install, what files need changing?
I have the following files:
/opt/adobe/fms/applications/live

-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 992 Jul 27 14:52 allowedSWFdomains.txt

-rwxr-xr-x 1 fms fms 2292 Jul 27 14:52 readme.txt
I want to lock down a person from connecting to the server on the public internet and starting a live stream?
Can this be done with a user name and password?

If you are concerned about anyone starting publishing to your stream then we have security update on this. Please upgrade to 3.5.4 and now you can use FMS Authentication Add-in (used with FMLE as publisher). If you are facing problems with publisher which are not FMLE, please enable SWF Verification so that only valid SWF's connect to your FMS.
You can find 3.5.4 update here : http://www.adobe.com/support/flashmediaserver/downloads_updaters.html
You can find FMS Authentication Add-in on FMLE Download page: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=fmle3 (when you click on Agree - it will prompt for your Adobe ID - then when you reach Download page - you will get Optional Download of Authentication Add-in)

IP Voice Media Streaming App won't start

I'm using CUCM 7.1.5, but this was occurring in 7.1.3 also. I can start all of my other services except this one. CUCM says it starts the service successfully, but it still says "Not Running." This is the output of the service's log file. At the bottom it says it can't find the device driver. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks.

Rob,
I used those directions and found some other ones that worked better for me and it solved my issue! Here are the steps for the archives:
Download the CentOS 5.x CD
Restart the VM with that CD
At the "boot:" prompt type "linux rescue"
Then after it finishes booting up type "chroot /mnt/sysimage"
That will try to mount the CUCM file system to the root directory.
Then navigate to /lib/modules/cm_ipvms/ and identify directory xyz.i686
Create a new directory called xyz.athlon and copy all contents from xyz.i686 to the new directory xyz.athlon
Do the same for all directories ending .i686, so there is a .athlon equivalent for each i686 folder.
Restart CUCM vmware and boot normally
Then try to start the service.

Injecting DTMF event in the midst of RTP media streaming?

Hi all, I am attempting to implement a mechanism that allows me to inject DTMF RTP events in an RTP media stream. This is useful in telephony applications where the users are prompted to enter digits while being served by automated voice services such as answerinng services or tele-bankings etc. So basically my approach is to extend Sun's RTP packetizer and intercept outgoing packets when necessary and replace them with the appropriate DTMF RTP (RFC 2833) packets. Sounds simple enough. So I derived my custom packetizer from com.sun.media.codec.audio.ulaw.Packetizer, and over-ridden method process(). Normally my packetizer's method process() simply delegates the functionality to its parent class's process() method. When a DTMF digit is required I'd take the outputbuffer generated by the parent's process() and modify its header and payload to turn it into a DTMF RTP packet. The problem is that the class RTPHeader is so limited, there is no way to set the payload type, sequence number, ... And the documentation is precious few and far in between. If someone has solved this issue, or if you have a reference to some documentation that describes the inner working of JMF's codec chaining, I would appreciate some pointers. What I need to know is:
- What JMF does with the Buffer objects between stages (from one codec to the next)?
- The data portion of Buffer is an Object of arbitray class, what on earth does JMF do with that?
- How does JMF take a Buffer object and turn it into a UDP packet?
- How do I go about creating an RTP header and fill it with the information (payload type, timestamp, sequence number, ...) that I want?
Thanks in advance,

I don't know what the heck RTPHeader represents but it sure doesn't seem to conform to RFC1889. And also, it seems the UDP RTP packets are formed somewhere after the packetizer and before the RTP connector, someone oughta jot all this down in a book. So anyway, using my own RTPConnector implementation I have some control over the outgoing/incoming RTP packets, to access and manipulate the real RTP header (not RTPHeader), I devised a new class that takes the RTP packet buffer and provides an API to examine and manipulate some RTP info directly on the buffer without doing any unecessary data copy (you guys can extend it to do more as per your requirement):

          return (0 != (data[myoffset] & 0x10));

Windows media stream in iTunes -- How??

I am struggling to find a way to load the following Windows Media stream (an online radio station stream) into iTunes (mms://196.35.64.36/highveld_22?WMThinning=0) -- I have an Apple TV and I'd like to stream the audio on my Mac and then have iTunes play the audio out of my TV which can be done through the Apple TV. I just can't get iTunes to play the stream at all though.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

iTunes cannot play Windows Media streams. QuickTime Player can play that stream, though, if you have the Flip4Mac codecs. You could then use Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil to send the output of QuickTime Player (or VLC Media Player) to your Apple TV.
