Red5 Help
Anyone have any experience with Red5?
If so, I just started playing around with it (mainly the 'oflaDemo' example) since I need to stream audio for a chat app. The examples work just fine and when I add the code to my app nothing happens...there's no error output or anything. Pretty vague I know but if someone can help I can post some code.
Thanks in advance.
Red5
Hello all,
I thought we could compare FMS to Red5!
Something i havent found out still (i've been reading around a lot) is how many connections does Red5 allow? FMS allows a maximum of a 100, correct?
Also in terms of performance, which is better fo you think?
Thanks all
Red5
OK, I have Red5, and I have a few questions...
1. Do I have to write java to to stream a video, or use a web cam or any simple task? One of their examples "SOSample", I can not find the java for it, so is it required?
2. I am getting this error when I do "ant server" into the cmd prompt:
Code:
BUILD FAILED
c:xamppRed5uild.xml:205: The following error occurred while executing this line:
c:xamppRed5uild.xml:221: The following error occurred while executing this line:
c:xamppRed5uild.xml:165: impossible to resolve dependencies:
resolve failed - see output for details
how do I fix it?

Any reasons why I should not use Red5 over Flash Media Server?
Red5 And AS3
Anyone who´s any experience with Red5 streaming server and record/playing flash video with ActionScript 3?
Edit:
The problem was when playing an FLV via Red5 0.6.3 I didn´t got the FLV-duration from the onMetaData event. The solution was to download Red5 0.6.2 instead. Some bugs in 0.6.3.

Red5 Getting Started
Hi
Can anyone point me to a 'getting started on Red5' tutorial or similar? I would like to create streaming video/mp3/chat/webcam apps with Flash, but the tutorials I can find all wants to create advanced Java classes and so on. I'm looking for something more basic.
Doesn't matter if the tutorial is AS2 or AS3

[CS3] Simple Red5 App
Hi
I've earlier posted a similar question, but with no response, so thought I wuld give another shot:
I'm trying to create a simple streaming app using Flash and Red5 - no java. I want to stream one single Flv in my Flash-app on a Red5 streaming server.
Here is my question:
How do I log my Flv-file into Red5? I can't just put it into a random directory?
Running Red5
I have small chat application and I'm trying to add a microphone audio stream so two flash clients can actually talk to each other. I setup Red5 as a webapp in Tomcat. Since I already have the chat application written in AS2 (this might not be the right section to post this thread) my question(s) are as follows:
1. Do I need to re-write the application in AS3 to stream the microphone audio?
2. Anyone know a good tutoring on running Red5 as a webapp and using it to stream audio between two clients?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

Red5 Demo Help
I have installed Red5 v0.7.0 on a RHEL5 box and I'm just trying to get the OFLA Demo to work. I am able to get the Shared Ball demo to work.
I pull the site via http://www.domainname.com:5080/ofla_demo.html
I get a page with the player, but nothing in the 'library' and the 'video' is snow. And when I use the 'rtmp://www.domainname.com/oflaDemo' and click 'connect', I get the following in the 'output' section:
Code:
(269) Connections: true | true
(227730) connected?: true
(228260) NetConnection.onStatus:
description = No scope "oflaDemo" on this server.
code = NetConnection.Connect.InvalidApp
level = error
(228261) NetConnection.onStatus:
level = status
code = NetConnection.Connect.Closed
Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

Anybody Developing With Red5?
I just found Red5 today, seems like the best thing in the world as far as flash... but nobody seems to talk about it here. I did a search for red5 and got 2 results from more than 4 months ago. So am I missing out on something better? Or are all of you missing out on this open source alternative to the Adobe Flash Media Server?
It streams video and audio via flash from a users computer to the server and back to other users.
It can also handle chatting applications as well as just sending data of any type to all the connected users.
For Red5 Information
http://www.flashextensions.com/index.php?page=free - Has great videos demonstrating the power of Red5
http://osflash.org/red5 - is the actual site where they develop the server application
Has anybody out there used this yet? If so, do you have any code samples to share (besides the exact ones from the installer)?

any help is greatly appreciated.
Getting Started With Red5 Server
I have read this article to try and get setup with red5 and the author described each step perfectly up until page 3. I have the server setup and running but on page 3 a few steps are missing and there is no mxml example. I still do not know how to connect an mxml app with the red5 server.
My job is to send and receive data (using red5's flash remoting).
http://www.actionscript.org/resource...ver/Page3.html
Can someone help me setup an mxml application to talk to the example in this article?
Red5 : How To Start To Stream?
Hi,
I need some clarification about red5 open source flash server.
I would like to stream a video of a webcam to many clients in real time.

How do we do this in red5? Should we write custom java code for red5 for specific tasks such as this? And do you know any good tutorial for getting started in red5?
thank you!

Setting Bitrate In FMS/RED5
Hi,
I need to know a bit about recording streams using FMS/RED5.
Whether we can have variable bit rate in FMS/RED5. E.g., the recording/streaming will be done at 128kpbs or 256kbps?
Is there any way to set this in the server side code so that all the recordings being done are on the specified bit rate.
You help would be much appriciated...

Red5 - Streaming From Custom Directories
Not sure if this is the correct section if not sorry.
I've been following the below tutorial on red5 to change the default location streams are stored.
http://www.red5tutorials.net/index.p...om_directories
But I keep getting errors in the logs saying it can't find my Custom Generator. I'm using Windows and have installed on the C drive.
I've put my Custom Generator in the following location C:Program FilesRed5webappsoflaDemoWEB-INFsrcorg
ed5serverwebappoflaDemo and my red5-web.xml file is located at C:Program FilesRed5webappsoflaDemoWEB-INF.
I've added the below to the red5-web.xml file...
<bean id="streamFilenameGenerator" class="org.red5.server.webapp.oflaDemo.CustomFilen ameGenerator">
<property name="playbackPath">
<value>C:/streams</value>
</property>
<property name="recordPath">
<value>C:/streams</value>
</property>
</bean>
I think i'm pointing the class above to the wrong location and not seeing my CustomFilenameGenerator.java file.
As soon as I remove the code above from the red5-web.xml file everything works fine but I need to store my streams in a different location.
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions that would be really helpfull.
Thanks

Red5 AppDisconnect Problem Solution
There are a lot of tutorials in the web about red5. When I was trying to build my first application for red5 server I was using following tutorial
http://www.actionscript.org/resource...ver/Page1.html
When I compile app in eclipse, restart red5 server and was trying to connect to this application via my flash client, I detect from the red5.log that appConnect method worked correctly but when I closed flash client which was connected to red5 server, nothing happened. Seems that appDisconnect was not triggered.
I found solution in Red5 mailing list
http://www.mail-archive.com/red5@osf.../msg10694.html
appDisconnect method should override super class method. I change code from
ActionScript Code:
public void appDisconnect( IConnection conn , Object[] params )
{
log.info( "Red5First.appDisconnect " + conn.getClient().getId() );
}
to
ActionScript Code:
/** Override super class method */
@Override
public void appDisconnect( IConnection conn )
{
log.info( "Red5First.appDisconnect " + conn.getClient().getId() );
super.appDisconnect(conn);
}
and it was working properly
Same problems can appear working with roomStart, appStart and appStop methods
I hope this information will help someone.
[red5]*webcam Recording And Browsercache ?
Hi there,
i'm building a webcam recorder with red5. actually everything works quite well, but I encountered some sort of problem:
when I record a few videos, after a while the preview of the video does not work correctly anymore and only half of the video is beeing played, then it stops. But when i download the video from the server, everything seems to be ok and the video has the right duration...
Has anybody else had the same problems or knows something about it? My suspicion is that is has something to do with the borowsercache (i use a firefox 2.0.0.12 on a mac), because when i restart the browser, it usually works well for some time.
Or is there something like a maximum recording time?
Thanks for any tipps and help!

Stream Server Red5 Assistance
Current situation:
I know action script 2 and other animation technique of Flash.
Red5 has been installed on the server. I can access to this server using IP Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. The person who installed the red5, said that it is installed on /user/local/red. I also have hosted other domains on the server.
Now I need to know the following things:
Set A:
1. What is the root folder of my red5 server (e.g. public_html or httpdocs etc)?
2. How can I access to my root folder's files (flv) from any internet browser?
3. Can I access on the server from my other domains? If yes, How? (e.g. rtmp://mydomain.com).
Set B:
What are the alternatives of $_POST and $_GET of PHP in action script? I mean, I want to pass the data from php to swf.
I may use $_GET type data (mysite.com/index.php?myvariable=123), or post data of a form.
By the same way, I want to post the data from swf file to php by using any method. How can I?
You have to provide me answers of these questions in a simple way - so that I can understand and with example codes.

Now to step 2. Making a custom client that autoconnects to my live feed. I cant see any actionscripting in the fla that i found so I don´t know what to do. Anyone know of a tutorial or how to solve this?

[AS3] Using Red5 And Flash Media Live Encoder
Dear users,
I have to do a project of video streaming that is playing video stored in the server using RTMP.
Further,I also need to upload the videos and convert or encode it into flv format. For this I am planning to use flash media live encoder.
I am a rookie in this programming zone. So, I need to learn red5,RTMP,encoding very fast.So, dear users where are the best tutorials to follow regarding this project and is there any open source demos with source code similar to my project,so that I can study it.
I am loving this project,so I need help from all of you users on how to proceed.
Waiting positively for your guidance.
Broadcast Local Mp3 / Sound Files Using Red5 / FMS
Hello,
I'm trying to stream local (yes on client pc) mp3 files using actionscript 3 and adobe air runtime.
Scenario:
1: Create new sound object and load an mp3.
2: connect to the stream server ( red5 or flash media server ) and create new stream.
3: attach microphone to the stream ( used only when the client wants to say something ) (default muted ).
4: broadcast the loaded sound just like NetStream.attachAudio(mic:Microphone) would.
Everything works just fine until i get to the 4th step (broadcast sound object) since neither as3 nor adobe air seem to have this feature implemented.
I've tried using the NetStream.attachAudio(soundObject) that results in a conversion error stating that it cannot convert sound object to microphone object.
Maby extending the NetStream class to support attaching sound objects would be the answer here but since it`s actual sourcecode is closed this does not seem dooable.
Or maby a sound object to microphone object converter ?
The application will run only as a desktop application using the AIR 1.0 runtime ( win / osx ) so cpu consumption related to browser usage is irrelevant.
---------------------
Yes i know Flash Media Server can do this with server stored mp3 / flv files.. my app must be able to broadcast local files.
---------------------
I cannot force my users to have 2 soundcards in their pc`s just to use this application
- 1st for the actual microphone
- and 2nd ( jack from sndcard 1 sound output -> to snd card 2 microphone input jack ).
maby an emulated sound output -> microphone driver exists?
---------------------
Any thoughts / ideas on the issue are grately apriciated.
Thank you for your time,
Micky.
Flash + BlazeDS, OpenAMF Or Red5 (Java)
Hello!
I'm completely new to Java and would like to know the better way to learn about the integration of Java with Flash through AMF. I have already experienced AMFPHP and would like to clarify what do I need to set up the Java back end.
First of all, does BalzeDS, OpenAMF and Red5 are competitors solutions? If yes, wich one is the best and why? If not, could some one point me out the main difference?
And what do I need to start building applications in Flash that would use J2EE server?
Thank you!
