incipit: back to work on Flash/AIR a couple of months ago after years, since 2011 - a lot of time. I'm a flash adept on client-side so, later this lot of time I was on papers, today I was sure to find a deeply tested and so well working live videoconferencing subsystem embedded in Flash/AIR with the new "winning" RTMFP+H264+P2P software capabilities of the more recent releases of the flash runtime.. but today, by my new recent point of view, later a month of tests, I found in real life it works more or less like Sorenson video subsystem (2004) if not worse -> in stream lightness. today it is 2015, everything should be already tested in deep. so, what's wrong? is it my implementation to introduce stream lag? :-]
guys, does anybody has seen 1 RTMFP+H264+P2P really well working app in the web? with 'working' I mean that videocommunications works like .. yes.. like skype, which is the king in videocommunication: perfect audio, fullsize video - which is not really required but works so good also on mobile, zero lag time. (btw hangouts is a joke.. seems Sorenson:DD)
My app - the app that I use for my tests - is able to make a perfect videoconference NO-FULL-SCREEN with RTMFP+H264+P2P only in a local area network. If I test it over an adsl link with ONLY 1 collegue - with not a performing computer - the communication is simply crappy (in only 2!!!! in this case skype worked perfectly but ONLY with a not perfect video). no matter which audio/video configuration I choose (1/8/20 fps? 1%/73%/90% quality? h264 not h264? speex or nelly moser? etc): flash is not able to make quality videoconferencing. btw I also scale streams fps on livedelay >0.5 but also livedelay seems not to correspond to the reality of the stream congestion status.
.. I'm in blue screen: is the Adobe work a joke in the real scene? Where is the magic of skype? or am I missing something? [to test my app just click on "join audio/video" button, link below]
anybody has a url to show me of a working RTMFP+P2P app? (320x240)
btw:
- I use Red5 Server for RTMP and I'm testing MonaServer for RTMFP
- I use a propietary server to manage the logic of the streams of a multiuser live conference so I do not implement NetGroups: i just get the peer id from the streaming/peering server to establish DIRECT_CONNECTIONS
