“Adobe is excited to announce the development of Flash Media Live Encoder 3.1 (FMLE 3) for Mac OS. This has been, by far, the most requested “feature” since the release of FMLE. The Mac version will have all of the features of the Windows version of FMLE 3, which include:

• Ability to perform up to 3 simultaneous encodes
• Saving to local file during encoding
• Auto-adjust (helps manage the stream quality to stay live under poor network conditions)
• Support for H.264 and VP6 codecs

FMLE 3.1 for Mac will work with the built-in MAC iSight as well as devices such as Firewire cameras and video capture cards to support a broad range of use cases and workflows. Like the Windows version, the Mac version of FMLE 3.1 will be free.”

Today we released our 3rd service pack for Flash Media Server 3.5 (now v3.5.3). This service pack includes many bug fixes and performance improvements for DVR, Dynamic Streaming and playback. The release also includes security fixes to correct critical vulnerabilities in previous versions.

You can download the update and review the release notes here:

This version of Flash Media Server includes significant fixes for DVR that will make it easier to deploy in large scale networks, and includes support for SWFVerification within the C++ plug-ins. We also addressed issues that caused performance issues when streaming live content and when heavy updates of shared objects occurred. We also addressed issues when trying to use Dynamic Streaming (multibitrate) with a DVR-enabled live stream.

The FLVCheck tool was also updated in this release to detect more errors with corrupt MPEG4 files including unrecognized box versions, no sync sample box and invalid segments.

Flash Media Server 3.5.3 has full support for the smart buffer management controls introduced in Adobe Flash player 10.1. These controls include support for seeking within the buffer, stepping through a video, slow and fast playback in the buffer as well as reestablishing a connection without interrupting the stream. You can find more details about the buffer enhancements in the Flash Player 10.1 ActionScript 3 API documentation now available on Adobe Labs. You can review the buffer management updates in Flash player 10.1 here.
