Re: [Flashcoders] Stream Live from File

[Glen Pike]

Hi,

   Could you set up something like FFMPEG on the FMS box to 
read/transcode your CDN stream into FLV so the server can then stream 
this.  I am not sure if FMS likes playing FLV streams from anything it 
does not create, but it might be worth checking.

The player is setup for RTMP streams coming in live from a CDN. We are
doing a live event and this is in case the connection goes down and we
need to send a prerecorded stream to the same player.

I did find some "virtual webcam" software that creates a virtual
camera that Flash Media Encoder was able to pick up but getting sound
to work is kinda clunky.

So in the end I am just going the router of DVD player ->AV/DV
converter ->Flash media Encoder

Hi,
May seem like a daft question, but can't you just upload the file to the
server??

Has anyone seen a live media encoder that can use a file source? ANy
possible workarounds other than dumping the file to a camera/deck and
playing it back through?

Thanks,
