################################################################# # ReadMe: live service # # # ################################################################# The live service is an Adobe-built service that lets you stream live media to users without writing any code. (Note: this service does not support server-side recording or DVR functionality) Adobe Flash Media Streaming Server only runs Adobe-built services, also called "signed" applications. Adobe Flash Media Interactive Server and Adobe Flash Media Development Server support unsigned (user-created) applications. If you're using one of these server versions, you can modify the live service source code to create your own applications and enable server- side recording and DVR functionality. ======================================================================== Deploying an unsigned live service (Flash Media Interactive Server or Flash Media Development Server only) ======================================================================== To deploy an unsigned version of live service you can either replace the existing service, or create a new service: 1. [New Service] Create a new folder in the {FMS-Install-Dir}/applications/ folder. 2. [New Service] (Optional) To make your new folder the default live service, open the file, {FMS-Install-Dir}/conf/fms.ini and edit the LIVE_DIR parameter and point to the new folder you created in step 1. 3. [Existing Service] To replace the default Adobe signed live service, first back up the following files from the folder {FMS-Install-Dir}/applications/live: * main.far * Application.xml * allowedHTMLDomains.txt * allowedSWFDomains.txt 4. Copy all files from {FMS-Install-Dir}/samples/applications/live to the folder you created in step 1 or to the existing folder, {FMS-Install-Dir}/applications/live. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about using and configuring the live service, see the Developer Guide (flashmediaserver_3.5_dev_guide.pdf) in the {FMS-Install-Dir}/documentation folder. For information about troubleshooting the live service, see the Installation Guide (flashmediaserver_3.5_install.pdf) in the same location.
