Installing the Flash Media Server/Red5 Bandwidth Checker

The client side files will be uploaded to your web site. When someone goes to your web site. and opens up the HTML page in which bandwidth_checker.swf file is embedded, the .swf file will load and connect to the FMS server/account and calculate the bandwidth and latency of the connection.


Step 1: Setting up the Flash Media Server / Red5 application

In the FMS applications folder or in your FMS account, create a new folder named "bwchecker" and put the main.asc file from the bwchecker folder in the archive (server side files/FMS/bwchecker) in this new folder.

if you Run Red5 you should palce the entire Red5 bwchecker folder inside your Red5 webapps folder and restart the Red5 server. You should end up with a structure like this: red5/webapps/bwchecker.

Step 2: Setting up the bandwidth checker in a folder on your web site

Create a new folder on your web site. named "bwchecker" where you should put bwchecker.swf and bwchecker.html (from the downloaded archive). Now edit bwchecker.html and change (in both places) this line of HTML code:

?rtmpurl=rtmp://localhost/bwchecker/

to

?rtmpurl=rtmp://yourfmsserver.com/bwchecker/

or

?rtmpurl=rtmp://123.123.123.123/bwchecker/

Now, fire up your browser and go to: yourweb site.com/bwchecker/ . The FMS/Red5 bandwidth checker should show up.

 

You can place bwchecker.swf on any html page on your web site., as long as you use the proper HTML code (available in bwchecker.html) to embed it in other .html pages.
