in this moment I work install the server and leter when installing the wifi try again and tell you if work the plugin.
Hi! Jwchat5 is not showing me the Transport Tab in Preference menu and the search name in the search select field in add contact menu… I have installed wildfire 3.2 RC2 + IM Gateway 1.0 6b + Wildfire http-bind on port 82.
after reinstalling wildfire and red5 plugin I could do some searchs but I’'m still have problems with transports with IM Gateway plugin. I cant register an account. Jwchat give me this error when I choose YAHOO TRANSPORT from the transport select.
JWChat5 is the latest build of JWChat modified to handle audio and video from Red5 and uses the new http-bind feature of Wildfire 3.2.0.
I read somewhere that JWChat was originally designed for ejabbered. I have noticed it has a number of compatibility issues with Wildfire which includes MUC and the IM gateway.
As part of the work I am doing to integrate Red5 with Wildfire, I shall be fixing some of these issues but like most other open source developers in this community this is not my day job so the next release may take some time.
Hey, this is a great plugin/concept- kudos for putting this together.
Here’‘s some feedback on my first use (for whatever it’'s worth):
Install was pretty straightforward… no hiccups
Video seemed to be pretty smooth though there was a six second delay
Audio was pretty rough, with lots of cutouts, garble, and repeats (typically 3 repeats for every utterance)
The client kept popping up new presence windows and asking for permission to use the mic and camera even while I was already on a call… i didn’'t realize these were dupes at first, and at one point I had 8-10 windows up
It wasn’'t totally clear to me what the different methods of operation were (e.g. the A/V presence menu option vs. the call option in the context menu)
Again, I think this is great… I’'ll be happy to help test this for you as release new versions- just let me know.
I have corrected the fault in the Spark red5 plugin and posted a new version here
Please let me know how it behaves.
The video presence window refreshes when you explicitly add/remove contacts with Audio/video option on the roster menu or automatically when when contacts enter/leave chat rooms. It is not supposed to popup and can only be opened with audio/video on the main menu.
dele- I tried the new plugin today to test the new patches, but I can’‘t seem to hit the server. It’‘s probably a firewall issue on my end (I’'m traveling this week), but that got me thinking about how to swing the connection to another server… is there any current or planned ability to use an arbitrary red5 server?
Red5 uses the RTMP protocol to deliver the audio/video stream over port 1935 by default. I suspect that the port is being blocked by your firewall.
The next version will allow will provide an option to make use of the RTMPT protocol which tunnels via HTTP. As port 8080 is being used by http-bind, I am thinking of using 8000 as default port. Anyway, it will all be configurable via the admin console web page.
I will also expose the embedded red5 server to Spark so that we can take advantage of XMPP federation (s2s) and enable red5 calls between different wildfire domains.
Ahh- so the red5 server is embedded in Spark. Interesting… when I tried to launch the A/V conf, I got the new window but it was blank for a while and then showed an HTTP nasty-gram saying the server was unreachable. I assumed it wasn’'t able to hit some public service, but from what you said I should be looking a little closer to home.
I like the direction you’'re heading- please keep me on the update list!
Ahh- so the red5 server is embedded in Spark. Interesting…
Not exactly. Flash is embedded in an HTML page which is embedded in the Spark red5 plugin and it uses RTMP to connect to the red5 server embedded in the Openfire (Wildfire) red5 plugin. I hope I am making sense!!!.
I suspect that the HTML page which is fetched from the Openfire server was being blocked. It assumes port 9090. I am hoping to have that configured from Spark or Openfire soon.
Thanks for the feedback. That is what is driving the development and setting direction.
