Live Smooth Streaming with Expression Encoder 3 and Web Cam

rickj1 — Sat, 17 Oct 2009 20:34:48 GMT

I'm trying to connect a live broadcast with Expression Encoder 3 and a wed cam when I try to connect to Publishing point I get this error Unable to establish connection to server. Ensure Windows Media Services is starter and the HTTP server control protocol is properly enabled is there an article or a walk through out there that will help with setting this up I'm running IIS7 I have media services installed. and has any one see articles on this subject for encoder the help files basically only tell you what properties they have I'm trying to have a web or video cam fire straight up to a web page
like Monday night football encoder seems to have the choice to do this there is a publishing option and a broadcast option I just need to get it to work

Of course, but Silverlight cannot handle MBR streams, does not have a controls.currentAudioLanguage property that gives you the LCID of the audio language that currently plays in a multilingual stream, and of course a Smooth Streaming video (that is the future) cannot be streamed from WMS. I don't know if in the next version of WMS and/or Media Services for IIS the gap will be bridged. If Microsoft could announce what is planned for the next version of these services then everyone could make also his plans for the near future.

Hi Vishal. I am the administrator of an Internet only Station. The streaming is based on Windows Media Services and SSPL that are combining recorded videos and Live broadcasts. A common scenario using the WMS. But... we want to get rid of the Embedded Media Player and replace it with Silverlight and Media Element. The reason is the compatibility issues with browsers other that IE. Properties like Controls.currentAudioLanguageIndex (we are also multilingual) are only exposed if Media Player is embedded as ActiveX object that can be done without plugins only on IE. The next problem is that if we use Silverlight with our current configuration the use of MBR streaming should be dropped because it is not honored in Silverlight. The next problem is that Smooth Streaming files, that is the future, can only be streamed from IIS with Media Services but now simulated live scenario like the one needed for an Internet only station cannot be used if Web Playlists don't have wall-clock functionality... So as it seems we are stack with WMS SSPL, MBR files and many select case blocks to make use of as many browsers as we can. I would appreciate if you have any thoughts.

Web Playlists

Stavros Raptis — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 10:40:25 GMT

Hi,

I've tried today the web playlists functionality of IIS Media Services 3.0 Beta. Unfortunately I didn't found anything that can be used instead of the simulated live functionality of server side playlists of Windows Media Services, like wallclock. Am I missing something? Is it something that will be added in the release version?

Changing the deafult path of WMROOT

priesmeyer — Wed, 20 May 2009 19:45:30 GMT

As a rule, we prefer to store content on our server's non-system drive (E:\) but when I run the "Add Publishing Point" wizard and get to the "File Location" dialog it always defaults to the "C:\WMPub\WMRoot" folder.

Is there a way to change this to another location?

I tried the registry key Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Media\Server\Setup\ContentRoot which points to c:\WMPub\WMRoot by default. I changed it to e:\WMPub\WMRoot and rebooted but when I rerun the Publishing Point wizard the "File Location" dialog still puts in c:\wmpub\wmroot by default and it's a multiple click movement to get over to another local drive/file location.

I appreciate your feedback. If it's a registry key or config file setting that'd be great. If it's hard coded then I'll understand we're stuck with it for now.

Thanks,

Jason
