NSV + Flash = yes

[jaromanda]

this "pixel" problem is due to the source, not the server

[bob0r]

Hello first of all, i am new to NSV. I installed http://www.nullsoft.com/nsv/ and it's working file. I am looking for a way to embed it to my website and i found http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....850#post971850

And now i am here. The first post is not updated so things are not clear to me.

I tried http://www.thebitstream.com/camjo/Setup.Exe (which installs Beta 2) but running vidCaster.exe does the following, it crashes:

AppName: vidcaster.exe AppVer: 1.0.1.3 ModName: vidcaster.exe
ModVer: 1.0.1.3 Offset: 0000c3a1

AppName: vidcaster.exe AppVer: 1.0.1.3 ModName: vidcaster.exe
ModVer: 1.0.1.3 Offset: 0000d691

Where do i start and/or what do i do wrong?

[Smelter]

Dunno, its very 'beta' software. Vid-caster does not put the stream in the browser. Red5 does.

[smuxbr]

Hi Smelter, your project is amazing!
I'm running on Linux without problems but the image of the video is the opposite both in your shoutcast.swf and JWPlayer. Using vlc it does not happen. This also happened to you?

These images shows this trouble



Thanks for any help.

Hi,

This is a known "bug" with smelters plugin if you're using vp6 as input stream.

You have to flip the picture. This can be done via plugins in your flash-player. You can search this thread, you will find a suitible plugin for jw player.

even in quotes, "bug" is a bit harsh ... it's an minor incompatibility between the VP6 that flash uses (VP6f) and the regular VP6 everything else (winamp, vlc, etc) uses

I dont have any clue how to program in AS-language Red5 seems to be the only "free" Version on the net, isn't it ?

I'm still trying to use flip.swf in plugins with jwplayer but same in version 4.x this plugin dont work with me.
I searched on google something about it but not against any code or player to test. I'm new to AS3, if I try to write using Flex Builder I would succeed with class VideoDisplay or NetStream?

[oLRi]

Writing your own flash player in AS is not that hard.

I did it, including flipping the picture, without knowing anything about AS on a lonley evening with a bottle of redwine and googling the basics about AS.

With netstream you can recieve the stream. Then you have to flip the picture with some settings ... was something like: x = -x and y = -y or something.

With the flip.swf: Did you consider using the crossdomain.xml?

[Smelter]

Ill have to add in some flags to the stock player to do it automajically, but I beed tied up

Yes, i have copy the crossdomain.xml from http://plugins.longtailvideo.com/crossdomain.xml to my webhost. Could you send me your code the only so I can fix my current player in flex? That would be of great help to me.

@Edit
I found something. Using Video class in flex maybe can rotate video.
video = new Video()
video.rotate = 180;

I'm trying to use this.

automajically

automajically is a great idea haha.
Unfortunately I dont have international credit card or paypal account to make a donation to you Smelter, your work is fantastic.

[jaromanda]

rotate will give you a horizontal mirrored image - you need to vertically flip

exactly jaromanda. Thanks.

Now I are using:

video = new Video();
video.width = 320;
video.height = 240;
video.x = video.width;
video.y = video.height;
video.scaleY = -video.scaleY;

//video.scaleX = -video.scaleX;
//video.rotation = 180;


vidHolder.addChild( video );

for all vp6 + red5 users: i made a jw flv player plugin, which flips the video. works in fullscreen mode, too.

        bgcolor='undefined'
        allowscriptaccess='always'
        allowfullscreen='true'
        flashvars='file=tesstream&plugins=flip.swf&streamer=rtmp://localhost/shoutcast'
/> 


And

PHP Code:

<script type='text/javascript'>
  var so = new SWFObject('player.swf','mpl','320','240','9');
  so.addParam('allowfullscreen','true');
  so.addParam('allowscriptaccess','always');
  so.addParam('wmode','opaque');
  so.addVariable('type', 'rtmp');
  so.addVariable('file','teststream');
  so.addVariable('plugins','flip.swf');
  so.addVariable('streamer','rtmp://localhost/shoutcast');
  so.write('mediaspace');
</script> 


The Video is still "unflipped"

How can I add the Plugin to the JW Player? I tried to add the code to the Flash Player through this code:

so.addVariable('plugins','flip');
or
so.addVariable('plugins','flip.swf');

The file exists in the same directory where the player.swf and the index.html for the Player are located.
Editing the path to the plugins in the SPLoader.as file also makes no changes.

[jaromanda]

best asked at jw player forums ... if you don't mind the spam you get from registering

[Klumpfuss]

If anybody gets this problem, the magic code line is so.addVariable('plugins','./flip.swf');
That's working for me.

[Smelter]

pink blocks are caused by requesting metaint data, and then not processing it.

Nice release, very stable and no pink blocks with vp 62 - like it very much.

Is there a way to export / view the number of viewers for each stream?

[Smelter]

I have a FM radio station with live web streaming using shoutcast in a debian server. I´m planning to stream a live video with NSV.
Now (10-24-2012 19:40 -3GMT) I was trying to reach http://www.nullsoft.com/nsv/ but doen´t work . Seens like a server issue. There´s another link to download NSV ?

[sankt]

The nullsoft domain was not renewed and the NSV software has not been updated since 2004.

However - you can still download the software here:

http://web.archive.org/web/200407110...lsoft.com/nsv/

[portalfmonline]

I´m going download now. I get the NSV nullsoft url on other topic in winamp forum, but now i understand that´s an old topic, already closed.
Thanks

Any chance this thread can get a bump, even if it's considered necrophilia? We're trying to host a very lightweight streaming solution for a community video broadcasting group, and they are getting sick of CPU spikes with xSplit/FMLE/Livestream Procaster. They already have NSV setup and going, but need a universally-acceptable player. Flash seems to be the answer. I read right through this post, and it seems progress was made, however, pretty much everything is a little over my head, as far as compiling Flash goes.

Was there ever a stock-standard player made for NSV that was as simple as upload and embed? Or am I beating a dead horse with my keyboard?

[jaromanda]

nothing is simple with shoutcast + flash

Is it just me or the website is loading very slow ...

[sankt]

Loads fine for me ?

[ThuGhacK]

It indeed loads fine, though the page is removed and the homepage is showed instead.
Btw sankt, you still updating scvi.net ?

I could compile vp8 for ya with multi-threaded actually enabled and proper frame setting etc.
You know have noticed if you set framerate to 12 and do a low bitrate it so ugly.
Thats cause the code itselfs tells the codec to use 30 frames, this is however solved.

[sankt]

Sure, send it over. I will add it.

[lincon]

If you are successful in streaming NSV audio and video with red 5 - will it be possible to render the nsv / flash stream with a flash player ?

[jaromanda]

yes

[DJTOMCAT]

Does anyone get Shoutcast running with Red5 1.0.1/1.0.2 ? There are so many Major changes and I am not sure if smelter updated it yet.

On the Old Version of Red5 1.0 (Version 2010)
BTW with IE10 & Windows 8 the Flashplayer runs only a few seconds and then there Comes an Error like

2013-07-17 00:26:09,942 [NioProcessor-1] ERROR o.r.server.service.ServiceInvoker - Method startTransmit with parameters [false, 5248] not found in com.thebitstream.shoutcast.Application@229f29d

But only on Internet Explorer
On Firefox , Chrome, Iron with Windows 8 everything works fine

[Smelter]

I havnt updated it. not sure if I have time to.

'startTransmit ' is a new parameter flash player sends to red5.

IM more interested in shoutcast 2, and making stuff for that.

[DJTOMCAT]

Sorry that i answer yet, i bet a lot of users would be happy about an update of castshout i tried to do an update/recompile but i am not good in programming I bet it would be an easy update for you :-)

btw can red5 converts the nsv>flash also to html5 ? or is there any solution which can "connect" the flash stream , because it is not flv or something (file) ?

greetings
Bjorn
