Flash video n' related stuff
Brian Chau has graciously offered up some sample apps to get you started with FMS3 (they are exercises for his upcoming class). These come set up to run on FMS3 running locally (the free Developer edition would work for this).

He’s got some interesting apps in there, that take you a step further than the sample apps that come bundled with FMS3:
Thanks, Brian!

how to became adobe community expert?
what are the qualifications ?
@ichigo
I was invited by Adobe to be a part of the Community Expert program after writing my book, actively participating in my local user group, maintaining an active blog and writing lots of Adobe-related articles. There’s more information here: http://www.adobe.com/communities/experts/faq.html
Practice, lots of practice. Kidding… well, sort of…
Is it me or are these ’samples’ on some site that cost money. It sounded like he was giving them out as examples (since there is NOTHING useful on the adobe site on FMS3).
Anyone have the files? Even the SLIDES cost Euros.

Hi Jason,
I just double-checked, and the samples are indeed still free. He’s just hosting them on a download site that seems to want your money at each click! If you follow the links carefully, there is a ‘free’ link, then a link to download the zip file (above where they ask for money). Just be sure to grab the FMS files first, as you’ll have to wait 50 minutes to download a second file for free (what a pain).
And to address your other comment; are there specific examples you’d like to see on the Adobe site that would be especially helpful? I am working with them to develop their FMS content, so I can see what I can do…

hi lisa plz help me out….what’s the scope after expertising
streaming videos, what else i can do after reading ur lovely book on video.what r other related topics and arena which can bind with video specialization to make an extremely good path to follow.
@sam: Once you have streaming video down, you can do most anything!
I’d look into real-time interactive apps (live video chats, multi-player games, etc) to utilize your video skills.
Have fun!

Hi Lisa,
I am trying to play my video and this error keeps popping up: Error #2044: Unhandled asyncError:. text=Error #2095: flash.net.NetStream was unable to invoke callback onXMPData.
I deselected the include xmpdata checkbox still get this error. I cannot use as2 as it will throw loads of compile errors. Please help.

Hi Saumya,
This appears to be a new callback that needs to be handled, now that the Flash Player supports XMP metadata. You’ll need to add a listener and handler to catch the error:
ns.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
function asyncErrorHandler(event:AsyncErrorEvent):void {trace(event.text);
}
Hope this helps.
cheers // Lisa
@Sam,
A linux server should not make a difference, unless the issue is a file-naming one (linux filenames are case sensitive).
Also, you need to have PHP running on your server to use that example. And be sure that you’ve “injected” the required metadata into your FLV using the FLV Metadata Injector Tool (FLVMDI).
Speaking of samples – would you happen to know of any sample code that addresses FMS Intelligent Balancing? I’m trying to write Server-Side ActionScript that connects a server cluster without using Edge/Origin, and that will allow a client on one FMS server to connect to a shared object on a different FMS server in the cluster. I’ve been attempting to create an array of NetConnections, but I’m not getting the kinds of results I’d been hoping for.
I don’t know of any offhand, but you may want to inquire on the Adobe support forums, the Adobe FMS Group (http://groups.adobe.com) or on the FlashMedia discussion list (http://www.flashcomguru.com).
