Using Flash Media Live Encoder with a camera without FireWire

Hi,
Right now we have beeing using an old DV tape based camera connected to Flash Media Live Encoder via FireWire for live streaming.
We are looking at getting either an Sony AX2000 or HXR-NX5U camera as they are flash based. Unfortunately, they don't have FireWire ports.I image that I would not be able to stream via USB, but I'm not sure if anyone is familar with either of these cameras.
Does anyone know of any posisble way (ideally without new equipment) that this would work?
Ports on the HXR-NX5U
Audio Out      RCA type (CH-1, CH-2)
Component Out     RCA type (x3) via A/V multi connector
Composite Video Out     RCA type (x1)
S-Video Out     N/A (optional VMC-15FS is required.)
SDI Out     BNC (x1)
HD-SDI/SD-SDI selectable
USB     Mini-B (x1)
Thank you for your help!

Hi there,
You may be able to take the RCA connection out of the new camera and put it in to your old DV camera if it has the avaliable inputs?
Also, USB is sometimes used for video so I woul have a look around for some info about it with your camera.
failing that your best bet would be to either buy a cheap Aanlog to Digital Concerter (ADC) that takes in composite and firewire on the RCAs. this woul mean that you are using the lowest quality and resolution that is avaliabe to you though!
You could stump up of an SDI or HDSDI input from the likes of AJA or Blackmagic. this would also give you the digitised XLR audio inputs
Hope this helps!
Nick

  • How to use Flash Media Live Encoder as a web Service

    Coud we use the Flash Media Live Encoder as a Web Service installed on another Server (Preferebaly on the Flash Media Server Itself).

    FMLE is typically used on the client side, and it doesn't have any sort of API that you would use to run it as a service. That said, unless you wanted to publish a camera that is connected to the server, I'm not sure why you'd want to run FMLE as a service.
    Perhaps if you explain what is is you want to accomplish....

  • Multicast media rtmp publish must use Flash Media Live Encoder? Flash 11.4, I use a worse problem

    I use the example FMS installation files, Flash Media Live Encoder is very well, but when I released the source replaced with flash 11.4 a worse problem.
    Beginning everything is normal and Flash Media Live Encoder does not make any difference, but when I upload bandwidth limit to 2KB / S (This situation often occurs in the actual situation, such as the user suddenly side live side of upload files), video and audio becomes very blocked, this is not the key to the problem is to when I upload bandwidth settings for normal, blocking situation will be no better, and have been very bad, but Flash Media Live Encoder automatically adjusted to normal, flash 11.4 but not.
    I have to use flash 11.4, nobody will go to install Flash Media Live Encoder.
    Mike Do you test only test Flash Media Live Encoder, but did not test flash, or flash need another set of code, but I really can not find a reason.
    Please help me, God。

  • FMS 3.5 DVR Using Flash Media Live Encoder 3.0

    Hi,
    I am trying to work out the DVR feature of FMS 3.5 by using
    the Flash Media Live Encoder 3.0 but it failed.
    On right bottom of the Flash Media Live Encoder's UI, there
    is a check box labeled "". I subscribed a live stream to FMS 3.5
    with that check box checked and the server side report a error:
    Method not found (DVRSetStreamInfo).
    So it seems that the FMLE send a remote function call on the
    sever side but the server side script has no definition of this
    method.
    Dose anybody know how to get rid of the problem.
    Thanks,
    Ang

    here's some sample code you can use in a server-side action-script to deal with the fme dvr recording:
    (a list of all available properties can be found at the end of this post)
    Client.prototype.DVRSetStreamInfo = function(dvr_obj)
         //    if the date is Wed Dec 31 1969 it's starting
        if (dvr_obj.stopRec.getFullYear() <= 1970)
            //place code here to start / continue recording.
            /* sample:
              var new_stream = Stream.get("recorded_ " + dvr_obj.streamName);
              if (new_stream)
                   if (dvr_obj.append)
                        new_stream.record("append");
                   else
                        new_stream.record();
                   new_stream.play(dvr_obj.streamName);
        else
            //place code here to stop recording.
              /* sample:
              var new_stream = Stream.get("recorded_ " + dvr_obj.streamName);
             if (new_stream)
                 new_stream.record(false);
    here is a list of properties available to the "dvr_obj" passed from FMLE:
    - all properties below are informational only they are meant to be used on the server-side to pass the information to the correct function.
    streamName : string
    callTime : date
    startRec : date
    stopRec : date
    maxLen : number
    begOffset : number
    endOffset : number
    append : boolean (fmle sets this to true if the stream was cut-off without the user pressing "stop" or if the user pressed "pause"...)
    offline : boolean

  • Image logo with Flash media Live Encoder

    Hello, I am using Flash media live encoder 3.1 to broadcast to flash media server.
    Its is possible place a image logo with the media live encoder??? How i can do this?? I like that my broadcaste have a image logo.

    Hi,
    That may not be possible with Flash Media Live Encoder directly. But you can use softwares like WebCamMax on Windows and CamTwist on Mac to add video affects while broadcasting with Flash Media Live Encoder.
    You could refer to this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/2711776#2711776 .

  • Flash Media Live Encoder 3 Audio Input Level Resets (XP)

    I am using Flash Media Live Encoder 3 on a Windows XP computer, with an Ospery-100 capture card for video and a generic sound card line in for audio input. It works fine, except for every time I launch the encoder or even just stop and start encoding (i.e. without closing the application), it  resets the line in audio level of my sound card to maximum--not good, as the appropriate setting is actually the minimum. If I don't remember to open the Windows mixer and turn it back down, the audio clips like crazy. No other application I use changes the input leve of my sound card in this way. What is happening here? Any ideas? Any solutions? Thanks.

    Have you checked volume slider position in FMLE? If it is set at 100% it would increase the audio level of sound card. Drag slider to lower value to reduce the volume level.

  • AMAZON Cloudfront & Flash Media Live Encoder

    http://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2009/12/15/announcing-cloudfront-streaming/
    I work for a small video company that seeks to expand into live video streaming.  We already successfully use Amazon S3 and Cloudfront and have worked with Flash Media Live Encoder with other types of servers.
    What kind of steps would it take to combine FMLE and Amazon Cloudfront to allow live feeds or successful streaming?
    It seems like an exciting technology and even more exciting if they two can work together.
    Thank you.
    Shawn

    Thanks for the pointers.
    I'd already been using S3 and CloudFront as an FMS solution to serve up videos when I asked the question.
    The FAQ refers to some clients using EC2 for Live Streaming.
    As I peruse the EC2 area the only thing I see related to this is Wowza.
    http://aws.amazon.com/customerapps/1220?_encoding=UTF8&jiveRedirect=1
    I was hoping someone had found a simpler way ... and as I look at the netromedia enhanced offerings in the comments section of that page I'm seeing prices beyond my budget.
    But looking at wowza's EC2 page: http://www.wowzamedia.com/ec2.html
    the numbers look more pleasing ... I'll get in touch with them and find out the real deal.
    Guess I'll have to familiarize myself with wowza if I want to make it happen for now.
    Thanks again.

  • Flash media live encoder

    Can we use Flash media live encoder in web based applaction.
    i dont want to to use it as desktop appliaction

    No... FME does not have any facilities for negotiating with a
    webservice or communicating with a browser. You can create an FME
    profile xml document and distribute that (sort of like Justin.tv
    does), but your users will need to apply that profile
    manually.

  • Flash Media Live Encoder Frame Rate Really LOW

    When I try to use Flash Media Live Encoder to stream to Twitch it works but frame rate drops significantly. I will have it set at 30 or 60 fps and on an average it streams at around 3 to 5. Can anybody help me out with this? It's really frustrating and is making it a lot harder for my streaming channel to expand. Thanks: http://www.twitch.tv/thesykehd

    Same thing here. Does not seem to work with OS X 10.9.

  • Flash Media Live Encoder Support

    Might LCCS's future roadmap include possible support for using Flash Media Live Encoder (FMLE) for higher quality video/audio capture and encoding?  Or will LCCS continue to be limited solely to encoding by Flash Player (VP6)
    Thanks,
    g

    Hi,
    Right now FMLE does not support Alpha channel. Its Video encoeder encodes data from YV12 format.
    Even latest release of FMLE is not supporting alpha channel. If you want this to be implemented then you can add this as Enhancement bug in Adobe site for Flash media encoder product.

  • Can a Panasonic HD Camera be used with Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2

    Can a Panasonic HD Camera be used with Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2 instead of my Laptop webcam.

    yes it can but you need an in/out device to "link" the HDMI output from your HD camera to your computer via, USB or firewire
    BlacMagic sell those, Matrox and AJA are some of the other brands on the market.
