Re: For all recording/playback users : on 11/03/11, you need to upgrade your SDK - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi All, I think I’ve just managed to prove Nigel’s Law. Which states : “If, at any time for a hosted service, you specify a release date publicly, that date will slip.” So, we encountered an issue building the latest SDK (it’s a really boring story, involving certificates, which I won’t get into). We’re not going to make any changes today, but what we’ll do is this : 1) a quick update to the SDK will come in the next few days. No service changes will occur at that point, so you won’t be required...

Re: For all recording/playback users : on 11/03/11, you need to upgrade your SDK - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Alex,On 11/03/11 - a new LCCS SDK will be released Correct.On 11/03/11 - servers are upgraded Correct.users on LCCS 2.1.0 and below will NOT get their sessions recorded Incorrect. They will be able to record sessions.and will NOT be able to play them back. Partially correct – they’ll be able to play back any recording made prior to 11/03, but not ones after, without a recompile.Also won't be able to playback older sessions Incorrect. These should be fine. As to releasing early – would an earl...

For all recording/playback users : on 11/10/11, you need to upgrade your SDK - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi folks, I'm sorry to have to announce this, but we're in the process of making some upgrades to our service infrastructure (upgrading some FMSes, specifically, to address security), and it's going to have an unintended side-effect. In the FMS version we got, new method calls are being embedded in the FLVs we record, and there's no way to turn them off =(. This means that clients which try to play back those FLVs need to have code to catch those method calls, or an exception will be thrown. It'...

Re: LCCS playback of large session recordings - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Davis, I'm including a basic app which will help you inspect messages in FLVs. Make an AIR project and include the files in this zip. From there, run the app and you should be able to select __StreamOffsets.flv, and it will tell you the relative start times of every stream in the recording. hope that helps - note, this code is provided AS IS, etc, etc, YMMV. nigel

Re: Audio Quality - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Josh, Sorry, only Speex and Nellymoser are supported for live encoding. With Player 11, g.711 is also included, but this also uses phone-like voice compression (eliminating a lot of frequencies). Essentially, the live microphone for the Flash Player is optimized for voice rather than live music streaming. nigel

Re: How to purchase LCCS? - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi nwtreker, Adobe has never sold on-premise licenses for LCCS. We have had an agreement w/ ConnectSolutions whereby they could also provide hosting – this also wasn’t on-premise. If you’d like to discuss pricing models other than the PPU model we offer off-the-shelf, feel free to contact us at (product acronym)@adobe.com. As a caveat, we typically only discuss alternative pricing when there is upside for both parties. nigel

Re: How to purchase LCCS? - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi there, If the question is : “How can I purchase LCCS to bring it in-house”, the answer is that we don’t offer it that way – LCCS is, fundamentally, a hosted service, and we don’t plan to offer it for on-premise install. hope that helps nigel

Re: Using the customFields in the user descriptor within an item renderer - Adobe LiveCycle

Sorry, this is really confusing. You say you *are* seeing the event handler fire when you start up the app? And now, you're somehow causing the numeric stepper to trigger further setCustomUserField calls, but you're not seeing that fire events? How are you hooking up the stepper to the setCustom call? I don't see any code for that. nigel

Re: Using the customFields in the user descriptor within an item renderer - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Ritu, So, you're saying you don't see a custom field change handler get fired? If that's the case, it's the code that's calling setCustomUserField which isn't working. Are you running this application with developer credentials? If you step into that code, do you see it succeeding in doing anything in the LCCS codebase? nigel

Re: Using the customFields in the user descriptor within an item renderer - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Ritu, My guess in this case is that the data binding you're doing in the stepper doesn't work with objects 2-levels deep (data.customFields.score). Could you add an eventlistener to userManager for UserEvent.CUSTOM_FIELD_CHANGE, and see if your changes are actually being round-tripped to the service? What evidence do you have that the userCollection is being updated? I don't see anything in the code above (the trace there happens too soon to tell). If your changes are generating events, the n...

Re: Audio Quality - Adobe LiveCycle

Thanks for the feedback Bernard – it’s possible that the client SDK is trying to be “too smart” here and re-applying settings on the fly. There was a bug in a prior Flash Player version that we’re working around – setting the silence level to something other than 0 for Speex was leading to dropped audio. But I’m still not sure I understand how or when you’re reapplying the codec here – I don’t see anything other than the silence level. Could you describe in more detail the frequency of the probl...

Re: Audio Quality - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi there, Have you tried using the NellyMoser codec, rather than Speex? AFAIK, there's no way to get Speex to change its frequency range - some folks have found NellyMoser to be better for their specific case (Speex is really meant to encode human speech rather than music). You're actually welcome to use the Microphone class rather than Microphone manager to change settings we don't expose. I don't think changing the sample rate would have a negative impact (just more bandwidth). nigel

New Social Platform SDK - Come Sign up to Learn More! - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi All, We looooove LCCS, but we also recognize that if you're building a social site or application, its capabilities are one element of the overall picture - you still need to build your own user profiles, etc. One of the things we've been working on is a set of APIs to help solve some of the problems LCCS leaves for you to deal with, making the entire offering stronger as a whole. I don't want to get too much deeper into it here. If you'd like to learn more, check out our site : http://sbe.ad...

Re: Using the customFields in the user descriptor within an item renderer - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi there, In order to set a custom user field, you have to round-trip it through the service - the line you've got in the creationComplete handler won't be enough. In general, the "descriptor" classes are meant to describe the state of the app, but can't be manipulated directly - you refer to the appropriate manager class' APIs to make changes (which will then be reflected in updates to the descriptors). In this case, the API you want is here : http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/acrobatcom/com/adobe...

Re: Horizontal and Vertical alignment / webcamSub - Adobe LiveCycle

Sorry, nothing by default. You can also create several webcamsubscribers (each one with its own publisherIDs, one per publisher), and position them any way you'd like. nigel

Re: App often hangs for aprox. 1 min. - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Hinne, I’m pretty sure there isn’t an issue with the service at these times – we’d be hearing from a lot more folks than yourself if that were the case. I’d suggest that there’s likely something in your application code making it hang. Without more detail, that’s about as much help as I can offer. nigel

Re: App often hangs for aprox. 1 min. - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Hinne, Not sure what you want us to say =)... Define “hang”? Is it 1 minute or 3 minutes? Why would Friday, Sat, or Sunday have anything to do with it? nigel

Re: Custom whiteboard for application - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi, If you’re looking to have the whiteboard cleared between sessions, configuring its model to be sessionDependent will do so. If you just want to programmatically clear the whiteboard, try looking at the docs for sharedWBModel :http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/acrobatcom/com/adobe/rtc/pods/sharedWhiteBoardClasses/SharedWBModel.html you can get the set of shapeIDs, and remove them all, as needed. nigel

Re: Flex-PHP application using LCCS - Adobe LiveCycle

The docs are basically saying that you get to specify those details when you create the auth token. Take a look at the PHP serverIntegration libs, and you’ll see that getAuthenticationToken accepts name, role, userID, etc, as parameters which you can supply. nigel

Re: Getting an Error -insufficient permissions to create a new CollectionNode - Adobe LiveCycle

Well, thanks for that clarification ;). Have you tried googling this error? We’ve definitely covered this subject plenty here on the forums. You can also watch the videotutorial in the SDK Navigator having to do with permissions, which addresses it as well. hope that helps nigel

Re: Horizontal and Vertical alignment / webcamSub - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Bernard, Sorry fot the inconvenience - as part of the improvements to the webcamsubscriber, we did make some changes to the layout system, in order to make it easier to control. So, it might not be as good at automatically guessing the layout you'd like, but you'll much more easily be able to force it to do exactly what you want. Here's the new property we added to webcamSubscriber: usersPerRow:int [read-write] Specifies the number of user videos to show per row in the webcamsubscriber. Once ...

Re: Using sharedModel for viewstacks? - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi, The problem with selectedChild is that it’s reference-based, rather than value based. This means, to set the selectedChild I have to have a reference to all the children; there’s no way to send a reference to a particular Object across the network and have it be shared, which is why I went with “index”. If you’re using Flex 4+, the new “states” mechanism also avoids this problem (and is much nicer), by letting you shared the name of the current state. nigel

Re: about the use range of lccs，please Test my understanding whether is correct,thankyou - Adobe LiveCycle

Hi Thomas (sorry for the delay) : 1. no - we don't provide a way to re-encode like fmle does.2. yup, some of the cluster is definitely FMS3. nope.4. RTMPS, technically.5. You can configure it to save the data or not.6. I suppose you could do a lot of it, but you'd still have to figure out some pretty tough problems, and operate it yourself.nigel

Re: h.264 lccs WebcamPublisher - Adobe LiveCycle

On the surface, it looks as though you’re doing the right thing... You say you’re POSITIVE (trace statements, for example) that it’s going into the code block you’ve detailed? The server shouldn’t have any impact on the encoding (in fact, it would be REALLY expensive to have it do anything around transcoding). nigel
