Question

dynamic streaming with Flash Media Playback? src?

Hey there!

I am trying to config the Flash Media Playback (FMP) Player for live dynamic streaming. But the Player does not start playing (all the time Buffering) or doesn´t find the stream name. What is the src-adress for a dynamic stream??? In Flash Media Live Encoder the Streamname ist livestream%i so what have to enter in src-adress of the FMP html code? rtmp://mylocalhost/ive/livestream doesn´t work, also .../livestream%i. If i enter rtmp://mylocalhost/ive/livestream1 or rtmp://mylocalhost/ive/livestream2 the player starts to play the single stream.

So, how can i enable dynamic streaming? From the manual of FMP by Adobe "...If it is enabled, dynamic streaming searches for multiple bitrate versions of the content to play. If it does not find multi- bitrate (MBR) versions, dynamic streaming does not function...." but there is no sample or concrete information how to enable all but stetting optimizeInitialIndex to true(default). This allows the player to use dynamic streaming for multi-bitrate (MBR) content.

Thanks for any help...

    Thank you for the link but it does not solve my problem. In this thread they work with manifest xml files like a playlist. Which i tryed but also doesn´t work. Adobe declairs FMP with easy config and less code for non geeks. And this is exactly what i want for my project.

    Does anybody can post some  html sample code especially for dynamic streaming/ MBR wit Flash Media Playback??? For Live or On-Demand.
