Video Issue on Mac OS

Hello,

we have a Desktop application which is native installed on desktop systems.

One point is to play mp4 videos located in the app directory. On Windows everythings working fine. But on Mac OS these videos keep staying black.

In the preview we use the FLV PlaybackComponent to stream the mp4 videos from server. This videos are shown as expected.

At runtime the vids are downloaded and after that shown via flash.media.Video class. And at this points theres only a black screen on MacOS.

Is there an known issue or another point I hav emissed?

Thanks in advance

Are you using any separators in your video paths i.e. backslashes? Backslashes are not cross-platform and Mac will not understand them. Use the resolvePath() method of the File class instead.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

I use consequently resolvePath to fetch any file references.

But anyway I checked for existance of  the files again at runtime. Everythings fine.
