Thanks for your response, SE_0208. 

We're simply attaching audio that's incoming via the user's microphone to an instance of the NetStream class, which show up as .flv files in the application's "recordings" directory.  Code snippet as follows:

     var nsRecord:NetStream = new NetStream(ncRecord);

     nsRecord.setBufferTime(2);

     var mic:Microphone = Microphone.get();

     mic.setRate(11);

     mic.setSilenceLevel(1);

     mic.setUseEchoSuppression(true);

     nsRecord.attachAudio(mic);

     function playRecordedAudio():Void {

            nsRecord.play(fileName);

     }

It's worked without a hitch for three years, (and we get 10,000 visitors a day), but ever since we updated to FMS 4.5, it'll work fine for a day or two, then it suddenly stops recording the files.  (No new files show up in the recordings directory). 

One clue, in case it helps, is that when the problem arises and it quits working, the Flash Media Administration Console shows a huge number of Active Clients, (1000+).  When it's working fine, that number is significantly smaller, (around 20).   I'm wondering if it's failing to recognize when users have disconnected, thus accumulating and maxing out on Active Clients and crashing the application.  

Your thoughts?

Thanks,

Mike

Hoping to get a little support advice here soon.  Our site gets 700,000 hits a day, and the complaints are pouring in in wheelbarrows.

Thanks,

Hi SE_208,

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out.   One question... is there a way to revised the above code so that the restart would occur only once the number of Active Connections rises to a certain level?  I've noticed that the number of Active Connections rises to a huge number whenever the application breaks down, so it would be great to have the restart respond to that instead of on a timed basis, which would kick off connected users when it may not be necessary.

Thanks again,

Mike
