Two new tutorials up on FMSGuru.com today covering installation and the basics of Flash Media Server 4.5, and to go with the past tutorial of installing Wowza Media Server 3, the second was to talk about getting both pieces of software to run at the same time on one machine. Here are some details on those two:
Installation and the Basics of Flash Media Server 4.5
In this tutorial we talk about the basics and installation of Flash Media Server 4.5 on Windows. The machine the software is installed on already has a previous version of FMS on it so the upgrade path and things to think about are talked about a bit as well. If you have no clue of what FMS4.5 is then this will help and if you have any doubts on how easy or hard it is to install then watch this tutorial and see how easy it is. There are a few items to think about if you are upgrading, but it’s straightforward for the most part.
How to get FMS and WMS to run at the same time on one machine
In this tutorial we cover the details on how to get both Flash Media Server and Wowza Media Server to run at the same time on one machine. This can be very handy for development machines when you don’t want to run two computers to test between both services. While it’s best to use two different IP numbers to accomplish this task, it’s quite possible to just set the ports differently which causes one or the other to run on a different port than the other.
