Flash media server not creating directory to save files

Hello All, I am having an issue with my flash media server 3. We just moved our storage of files to a NAS solution.

Each folder in our file system is named...

Publish webcam feed to Flash Media Server

I have a fairly high-end webcam (snc-rz25n) that I need to rebroadcast using the Flash Media Server. I can get the picture as MPEG-4 (not h.264). So I need to transcode to h.264 and publish at multiple bitrates to FMS. The only solution I have been able to come up with thus far is to transcode the stream using ffmpeg and then also use f...

"Fake" DirectShow video capture device

This is tangential to the last few questions I've asked. I need to get video from an IP webcam (SNC-RZ25N) to Flash Media Server.

I've considered many different routes from point A to point B, but it seems li...

Publish to Flash Media Server (FMS) from Red5

I'm almost there! I'm successfully pulling my MPEG-4 ES content from my SNC-RZ25N webcams and transcoding it to H.264 within VLC using a VLM configuration file.

Flash 3.5.3 - breaking change on playing pre-recorded files?

Hi there, installing Adobe FMS 3.5.3 seems to completely wipe out all our interactive applications, and I wondered if anybody else had the same experience.

However when I run the test on IE I get wildly varying results. One moment I'll get ~370Mbps, next I'll get 170Mbps, and often I will get OMbps. I do call some potentially browser...
