livestream record on client side

[zaxwerks]

Hi,

Been searching the forum for the answer and couldn't find it
im using live encoders (smartcast) and sometimes FME to broadcast a livestream event,

My goal is to have my client to be able to record the event (start/stop functionality), and stored the result file on their local harddrive.

is it possible to do? i only found recording from a camera, on the example folder.

thanks in advance

zack.

You could use "Replay Media Catcher" or another of the so-called "spoofer" applications.

This is the type of application that Wowza security features are meant to defend against, but if you don't use SecureToken or the secure RTMPE protocol, it will work.

Hi Richard, Thanks for quick response..

is it possible to do this on Flash platform? i was thinking to integrate this recording feature on my current livestream player, and not using another software.

You could use the Livestream Recording package, which records on the server, then download the recording.

Hi Richard, yes we already did that one, the server side recording, and works very well, now we are thinking of letting client to choose which part that they want to record on the event by client side recording feature.

is it do-able?

[rrlanham]

Probably, but I don't know how. Searches all point to server-side solutions. I don't think there is a built-in straight forward way to do it.

Thanks Richard

really aprreciate the help, we will look into it more, currently its like a bit do-able but on Air Platform.

A prerequisite server-side would be to modify these lines in the Application.xml:

<StreamAudioSampleAccess></StreamAudioSampleAccess>
<StreamVideoSampleAccess></StreamVideoSampleAccess>

To

<StreamAudioSampleAccess>*</StreamAudioSampleAccess>
<StreamVideoSampleAccess>*</StreamVideoSampleAccess>

sorry Richard...don't really understand, what is this setting does exactly?

[rrlanham]

It allows the Flash client access to the video and audio. Take a look at the ComputeSpectrum example:
