How to control (start / stop encoding) Flash Media Encoder 3.5 using ActionScript 3 (using Flash CS4) ?
UPDATE: Flash Media Server 3.5 is also installed in same server. It includes an Apache server, which I think can run batch script, if CGI is installed. Is it a solution? Seems dangerous.
My final solution is:
Set up a simple PHP site in parallel with FMS using XAMPP. The PHP site runs two simple commands to start and stop the encoder using PHP’s system($cmd) command.
To start encoder, the raw command is:
To stop encoder, the raw command is:
by running these commands in PHP, the encoder can be controlled. You can even use Flash to send out URL request, but take note of cross-domain issues.
