FLVPlayback component and rtmp

I have the flash media streaming server 3 installed on a server in our office. It is set up with a few sample flv/mp4 files and is working great with the vodtest html page that comes with it.

I've now come to making my own flash file using the FLVPlayback component (at the moment i've just got a black document with a flvplayback instance in the middle, which i've given the correct rtmp path in the component inspector). It works fine in flash when using Test Movie, it buffers up the file and start playing almost immediately.

Unfortunately, if I publish the flash file and open it in a web browser, all I get is an endless buffering bar. I'm hoping theres something simple I've missed out somewhere.

    Hello are you loading the webpage on that local machine ?

    theres a security thing in flash that wont let you play the video in that way. open the html file on a different computer to the streaming server
