Question

FLV 20 seconds buffering

I set up a html page with a Flash streaming server. When I play the FLV movies on the html page, it plays well. However, when I play the movies on the roadrunner at home, it has 20 seconds buffering, and then it plays after 20 seconds.

Please let me know what causes the problem. It makes me real crazy. Here is the link.

Thanks for your consideration.

    ahh, I just tried using telnet and found that port 1935 is not open at www.pde.rpi.edu.
    If this host is being used for FMS then SWF might be taking time to connect using rtmpt as a fallback.

    Where can I adjust the buffering time? in FLV file? or Flash Server side? Please advise.

    Once is starts playing it looks good. I would place debug traces in the flv file, and server side to see what is causing the initial delay. My guess is that the swf created is taking too long on the initial connection, but thats just a guess.

    I guess that will buffer 20 seconds of video first and then play the video. You can reduce the buffer time to play the video early. But that will stop the video for buffering regularly if user has slow internet.
